Overview

Analysis reveals multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli strains in cattle, highlighting risks to public health.

Key Points

  • One hundred twenty isolates showed multiple antibiotic-resistant traits, raising concerns for food safety.
  • Seventy-five isolates contained virulence genes, including hlyA, indicating potential pathogenicity.
  • Pulsed field gel electrophoresis revealed significant genetic variability among the multidrug-resistant isolates.
  • These findings emphasize the need for monitoring E. coli strains in cattle to protect public health.
