Sources of antibiotic resistant organisms, including concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), may lead to environmental surface and groundwater contamination with resistant enteric bacteria of public health concern. The objective of this research is to determine whether Salmonella, Escherichia coli, Yersinia enterocolitica, and enterococci resistant to clinically relevant antibiotics are...

conclusion although all esbl producer gram-negative bacteria were sensitive to imipenem, piperacillin-tazobactam, and colistin, non-esbl isolates showed resistant pattern. interestingly, notable percent of mentioned resistant isolates were sensitive to nitrofurantoin. background resistance in enteric gram-negative bacteria is of a great concern and concise local data are lacking. objectives to ...
