The aim of the research was the determination of resistance to fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin) of 387 Campylobacter sp. strains isolated from poultry between 1994-1996 (broilers, laying hens) and between 2005-2008 (broilers, laying hens, and turkeys). The resistance was determined by an agar dilution method (MIC), with accordance to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute recommendation...
The aim of the research was the determination of resistance of 387 Campylobacter sp. strains isolated between 1994 and 1996 (broilers, laying hens) and 2005-2008 (broilers, laying hens, turkeys) to tetracycline, erythromycin, and gentamicin. The resistance was determined with the reference to minimum inhibitory concentration on the agar plates (MIC). Limit concentration value for tetracycline and...
The aim of the following research was to analyse the presence of mutation in gyrA gene in C. jejuni and C. coli strains isolated from broilers, laving hens, turkeys collected between 1994-1996 and 2005-2008, and isolated from humans in 2006. The results of the research demonstrated that the highest percentage (100%) of the isolates showing mutation in gyrA gene was observed in Campylobacter coli strains...
