BACKGROUND: and pathotypes involved are enterotoxigenic, enteropathogenic, and shiga toxigenic (ETEC, EPEC, and STEC, respectively). Those diseases cause economic loss in pig production. AIM: from clinical cases of post weaning diarrhea and ED in farms in the central area of Argentina. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Intensive pig farms from the central region of Argentina were sampled. Intestinal mucosa swabs from pigs with diarrhea were taken, seeded on MacConkey agar plates, biochemically typified and tested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Antibiograms were made by disk-diffusion method. RESULTS: . The most active antibiotics against most strains were gentamicin and ceftiofur, but resistance profiles against many antibiotics were found. CONCLUSION: among pigs with diarrhea with an extended antibiotic resistance profile.
