Molecular characterisation of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli and Salmonella isolated from poultry and poultry products in Egypt
Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing E. coli and salmonellae have spread rapidly worldwide and pose a serious threat to human and animal health. The present study was conducted to determine the prevalence of ESBL-producing E.coli and salmonellae, to perform molecular charac-terisation of t...

From a total of 300 poultry samples, 25 and 20 samples were recognised as Salmonella and E. coli, respectively by microbiological and molecular methods.
