Abstract excerpt
Citrobacter freundii is a zoonotic bacterium with special public health importance as a carrier and source of multidrug resistance (MDR) genes. Here, the prevalence, genetic heterogeneity, and antimicrobial resistance pattern of C. freundii from chicken and red meat in Shahrekord, Iran, were examined. Cross-sectional design and a combination of molecular methods with random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD-PCR),...
