Beta-lactamase production among different agr groups of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolates from broilers.

Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is an opportunistic inhabitant of skin and mucosal membranes in animal species. Its resistance to β-lactam antibiotics is usually measured by β-lactamase enzyme production. This study was aimed to identify S.

Detection of Antimicrobial Resistance and Biofilm Production Among from Canine Skin Lesions.

is an opportunistic pathogen also indicated as one of the major causes of skin infections in dogs. This study aimed to identify isolated from canine skin lesions, evaluate their antibiotic resistance profile and biofilm production ability. Lesions from 50 rural dogs with different skin lesions were sampled after pyoderma diagnosis by private practices.

High prevalence of antibiotic resistance in pathogenic foodborne bacteria isolated from bovine milk.

This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of foodborne pathogenic bacteria in bovine milk, their antibiogram phenotype, and the carriage of antibiotic resistance genes. Raw bovine milk samples (n = 100) were randomly collected from different suppliers in the northwest of Iran. Antibiotic-resistant patterns and the presence of antibiotic resistance genes were evaluated in the isolates.

Antibiotic resistance in the pathogenic foodborne bacteria isolated from raw kebab and hamburger: phenotypic and genotypic study.

Background: In recent years, interest in the consumption of ready-to-eat (RTE) food products has been increased in many countries. However, RTE products particularly those prepared by meat may be potential vehicles of antibiotic-resistance foodborne pathogens. Considering kebab and hamburger are the most popular RTE meat products in Iran, this study aimed to investigate the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of common foodborne pathogens (Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp.
