A significant 50% of E. coli isolates showed resistance to critical antimicrobials, raising public health concerns.
Resistance was notably high for amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (62.5%) and ciprofloxacin (66.7%) among broiler isolates.
Real-time PCR indicated the presence of ESBL genes in 24 out of 48 sampled E. coli strains, while carbapenemase genes were absent.
These findings underscore the urgent need for better antimicrobial management practices on poultry farms.
