Feces samples, obtained from zoo animals around Seoul, were examined for the isolation of Salmonella species, bioserotype and drug resistance for the prevention and treatment of salmonellosis, Salmonella spp were isolated 19(4.7%) from 408 samples of zoo animals. The subspecies in 19 Salmonella were all subspecies 1. The serological identification of Salmonella isolated were 31.6% in Sal typhimurium, 26.3% in Sal hadar, 21.1% in Sal muenchen, 15.8% in Sal enteritidis and 5.3% in Sal ayinde. The antibiotic resistance of Salmonella isolated were 13(68.4%) strains. The multiple resistant patterns of antibiotics in Salmonella were 2 drugs- and 3 drugs-resistance 30.8% respectively. The transferred rate of resistance to recipients(E coli ML 1410 $NA^r$) in Salmonella was 38.5%.

This study was undertaken the bioserotype and drug resistance of Salmonella and Escherichia coli isolated from feces for the prevention and treatment of salmonellosis and colibacillosis in zoological animals. The results obtained from the research were as follows 1. Salmonella were isolated 19, or 4.7% from 408 samples and E. coli were isolated 12, or 40.0% from 30 diarrheal samples. 2. The biotypes in 19 Salmonella were Subspecies 1. 3. The serogroups of Salmonella isolated were 47.4% in B group, 31.6% in C, 5.3% in D and 15.8% in other, and serotype of E. coli was 100% in 0127a. 4. The antibiotic resistance of Salmonella and E. coli isolated were 13, or 68.4% and 7, or 58.3% strains, respectively 5. The multiple resistant patterns of antibiotics in Salmonella were 2drugs- and 3 drugs-resistance 30.8%, respectively, and those in E. coli were mono drug-, 2 drugs- and 7 drugs-resistance 28.6%, respectively. 6. The transferred rate of resistance to recipients (E. coli ML 1410 NA$^{r}$ ) in Salmonella was 38.5%, but that in E. coli was 71.4%.
