Overview

Analysis reveals high prevalence of pathogenic E. coli in poultry, indicating growing antimicrobial resistance patterns.

Key Points

  • E. coli was isolated from 120 of 200 suspected colibacillosis cases, indicating a significant prevalence.
  • Antimicrobial resistance testing showed tetracycline had the highest resistance at approximately 60% among isolates.
  • Young chickens during the monsoon season were more affected, highlighting a potential seasonal trend in infections.
  • Cephalexin is recommended for treating the prevalent E. coli strains identified in the study.
