species isolated from camel meat: quorum sensing-dependent virulence, biofilm formation and antibiotic resistance.

This research pioneers the process of obtaining information concerning the distribution and existence of seven genes linked to , three virulence and five quorum sensing separated from 100 camel meat samples using PCR. The Vitek system was used to identify species. Phenotypic antibiotic resistance of 16 antibiotics was tested by disc diffusion.
