A control and three treatment groups (turmeric powder added following doses: E1 - 5; E2 10; E3 20 g/kg feed) were constituted (n = 8). Addition resulted an increase intestinal ...

OBJECTIVES This study investigated the occurrence of extended spectrum cephalosporinase (ESC)-producing Escherichia coli in a broiler production with no cephalosporin use and a low use of antimicrobials in general. Furthermore, it investigated whether the current consumption of aminopenicillins selects for ESC-producing E. coli and whether certain clones or plasmids spread from imported parent ...
