Overview

This assessment reveals antibiotic resistance trends in salmonella serovars among clinical isolates, highlighting significant findings on colistin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.

Key Points

  • Resistance to ciprofloxacin was observed in 13.3% of samples, indicating a concerning trend in antimicrobial resistance.
  • Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis was the most prevalent serovar, accounting for 92 isolates in the study.
  • Molecular techniques like PCR and PFGE were employed to investigate the resistance genes and clonal diversity among the isolates.
  • Findings suggest a shift in antibiotic susceptibility patterns, as trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and azithromycin may be viable alternatives to more commonly used antibiotics.
