A comprehensive review of studies on antibiotic susceptibility and therapeutic regimes for brucellosis in ruminants and humans in the MENA region was conducted to evaluate the current therapeutic management in this region. Different scientific databases were searched for peer-reviewed original English articles published from January 1989 to February 2021.

Researches affirmed that distinguish between and are difficult, as they are phylogenetic related. The evolution of multidrug resistance of strains gained more concern for recognition of the pathogen which supports in controlling the disease and minify its threat.

Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were obtained for different FQ agents following exposure to different efflux pump inhibitors (EPIs), including PaβN (50 μg/mL), which targets the cmeABC efflux system, and chlorpromazine (45 μg/mL) and verapamil (120 μg/mL), which target the MFS efflux system. The modulatory effects of aspirin (100 and 200 μg/mL) and α-tocopherol (4 and 10 μg/mL) on FQ resistance profiles were examined.

The public health importance of the genus Campylobacter is attributed to several species causing diarrhea in consumers. Poultry and their meat are considered the most important sources of human campylobacteriosis. In this study, 287 samples from chicken (131 cloacal swabs, 39 chicken skin, 78 chicken meat, and 39 cecal parts) obtained from retail outlets as well as 246 stool swabs from gastroenteritis patients were examined.
