| Summary: | <b>Aim:</b> The aim of the study was to determine susceptibility
of Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale isolates to antibiotics
from layers, broilers and turkeys.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> The total of 28 isolates (2 layer
pullets, 5 broilers, 21 turkeys and 2 standard strains) of O.
rhinotracheale were tested. Eighteen antimicrobial discs
(penicillin, ampicillin, amoxicillin, amoxicillin + clavulanic
acid, oxytetracycline, enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, danofloxacin,
norfloxacin, trimethoprim + sulfamethoxazole,
clarithromycin, lincomycin, clindamycin, erythromycin,
spiramycin, gentamicin, neomycin and streptomycin) were
used to determine the susceptibility of O. rhinotracheale
isolates to antimicrobials.<p>
<b>Results:</b> While all O. rhinotracheale isolates (100%) were
susceptible to ampicillin, amoxicillin and ciprofloxacin, all
of O. rhinotracheale isolates (100%) were resistant to gentamicin,
streptomycin and trimethoprim + sulfamethoxazole.<p>
<b>Conclusion:</b> In the treatment of O. rhinotracheale infections
firstly antibiotic sensitivity should be determined. |
