Isolation and identification of salmonella spp. from feces and rumen of farm animals and study the antimicrobial sensitivity test

Abstract EN

About 50 samples were collected from November 2016 to March 2017 in city of Basra , from healthy farm animals the samples were taken from feces and rumen of animals at different age ( male and female) and study the antibiotics susceptibility for five different antibiotics.

.

(six) isolates (12%) of salmonella spp were identified by using selective media ( xylose medium and macConky agar), The identification of this bacteria was achieved by using morphological and biochemical characterization (Api20 E system).

The total isolation was four samples (20%) from healthy goats, (10%) from sheep and (10%) from cows.All isolates are resistant for ampicillines and Bacitracin ,penicillines but of sensitivity to other antibiotics
