Abstract

Total 70 isolates of Escherichia coli obtained from pigs were studied. Forty four isolates had $\textregistered$-hemolytic activity which was heat labile. Minimum inhibitory concentration test indicated that 40 isolates (57.1%), 15 isolates (21.4%), 23 isolates (32.9%), and 5 isolates (7.1%) were resistant to ampicillin, cephalothin, gentamicin, and norfloxacin, respectively. None of them were extended spectrum $\textregistered$-lactamases (ESBLs) producer when the double disk synergy test (DDST) was performed.
