Abstract: Antibiotic resistance (AR) is globally an urgent veterinary and public health threats. Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) production is a major mechanism enhancing bacteria resistance to multiple antibiotics thus limiting treatment options of such bacteria diseases and resulting in high mortality hence, the focus of this present study on evaluating antibiogram profile of ESBL-producing enterobacteriaceae (ESBL+EN) harboured in poultry....
Key words: Enterobacteriaceae, Antibiotic resistance, Extended-spectrum β-lactamases, antibiogram, Multiple Antibiotic Resistance Index, Antibiogram
