Abstract

The aim of the study was to determine the antibiotic resistance of Salmonella serovars, isolated from broiler faeces between years 2012 to 2013. The isolates were obtained from Ankara University Veterinary Faculty, Department of Microbiology culture collection. Total of 267 Salmonella isolates were analysed. All isolates were serotyped previously and tested for antimicrobial susceptibility in the study. Serovar distribution was determined as S. Infantis % 77.2, S. Enteritidis % 9, S. Typhimurium % 6.4, S. Liverpool S. Hadar % 1.9, S. Dabou % 1.5, S. Kentucky % 1.1, S. Corvallis, S. Mbandaka ve S. Onarimon % 0.4 by percentage. Resistance rate of isolated serovars to tested antimicrobials were found as; 42.2% to tetracycline, 42% to sulfanamide, 39.9% to trimethoprim, % 36.9 to nalidixic acid, 32% to streptomycin, 31.5% to ampicilin, 15.3% to enrofloxacine, 11.5% chloramphenicol, 10.2% to ciprofloxacine, 3.5% to gentamicin, 3% to cefotaxime. Multidrug resistant Salmonella were detected as % 89.51. In conclusion, high antibiotic resistance rates were revealed and S. Infantis was found as dominant among isolated Salmonella strains.
