Popis: E. coli isolated from dogs in Trinidad were tested for their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents using the disk diffusion method. Antimicrobial agents and concentrations included cephalothin (KF, 30 μg), ampicillin (AMP, 10μg), kanamycin (K, 30 μg), neomycin (N, 30 μg), gentamicin (CN, 10 μg), sulphamethoxazole/ trimethoprim (SXT, 23.25 μg/1.75 μg), nalidixic acid (NA, 30 μg) and norfloxacin (NOR, 10 μg). The overall prevalence of resistance to one or more antimicrobial agents for E. coli isolated from dogs was 47.9%. The difference in prevalence across the various sources of the isolates from dogs was statistically significant (P
Izolati E. coli iz pasa u Trinidadu bili su testirani na osjetljivost prema antimikrobnim tvarima difuzijskim testom. Upotrijebljene su sljedeće antimikrobne tvari i njihove koncentracije: cefalotin (KF , 30 μg), ampicilin (AMP, 10 μg), kanamicin (K, 30 μg), neomicin (N, 30 μg), gentamicin (CN, 10 μg), sulfametoksazol/ trimetoprim (SXT, 23.25/1.75 μg), nalidiksična kiselina (NA, 30 μg) i norfloksacin (NOR, 10 μg). Sveukupna prevalencija otpornosti na jednu ili više antimikrobnih tvari za izolate E. coli iz pasa iznosila je 47,9%. Razlika u prevalenciji izolata s različitih izvora bila je statistički značajna (P
