Antibiotic resistance profiling and phylotyping of human-diarrheagenic Escherichia coli pathotypes detected from diarrheic and non-diarrheic calves in Iran

CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of VG-positive E. coli isolates was higher in healthy calves compared to diarrheic cases. AR was widespread among VG-positive isolates. These findings suggest that calves may serve as potential reservoirs of antimicrobial-resistant hybrid pathotypes of E. coli.PMID:38581525 | DOI:10.1007/s11033-024-09494-6
