Article Synopsis
- The study focused on isolating and analyzing 30 ExPEC strains from sick camel calves that died from septicemia, highlighting their ability to cause systemic infections.
- Six of the strains exhibited a hypermucoviscous phenotype, and several were found to be multidrug resistant, including resistance to colistin, which is a last-resort antibiotic.
- The research also revealed that some strains have mixed virulence traits linked to intestinal pathotypes, indicating a genetic diversity that could enhance their resistance and pathogenic capabilities, suggesting potential risks for both animal health and zoonotic transmission to humans.
