Abstract excerpt
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli is a threat to poultry industries, as it is associated with infections, poor production ratings, and economic losses. The spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria is a major factor aggravating the situation. Therefore, this study aimed to characterize 28 E. coli isolates from poultry farms in Brazil regarding virulence, as well as genetic and phenotypical resistance. Antimicrobial...
