SALOMONELLA SPP ISOLATED FROM POULTRY PRODUCT

ABSTRACT

The antibacterial resistance patterns of salmonella species isolated from poultry droppings in imo state university of owerri (imsu) the samples comprises of egg shell, soil in poultry farm feather, faces, clocal swab were analyzed microbiologically. Isolation of salmonella was carried out on salmonella Shigella agar medium and identified according to their microscope and biochemical reaction bacterial isolates were obtained, identified and confirmed as salmonella species as identified from several biochemical examinations. The isolates were subtested to antibiotics susceptibility test using disc diffusion test on Mueller  Hinton Agar. High resistance was recorded against septrin(100%) chloramphednicol (100%), streptomycin (100%), taruid (100%), auginetin (100%), sparfloxacin(66%), ciprofloxacin (66%), Amoxacillon(91%), Gentermicin(91%) and pefloxacon(91%) plasmid profile was also carried out to determine and characterized antibiotics traits in these results reveal the presence of drug resistant salmonella in commercial poultry feeds in owerrl metropolis. This poultry farm feather, faeces, can serve as a channel for transfer of resistant strains of bacteria to poultry birds as well as human and the environment feather, faeces, can serve as a channel for transfer of resistant strains of bacteria to poultry birds as well as human and the environment
