Analysis of Antimicrobial Resistance of Microbiota Associated with Respiratory Diseases of Pigs

Abstract

Successful treatment of veterinary infectious diseases in the context of widespread use of antibiotic therapy depends on the effectiveness of the drugs used to contain or destroy the etiological agent. It is generally accepted that the resistance of microorganisms to antimicrobial agents is variable, including due to the horizontal movement of resistance with the help of mobile genetic elements. Antimicrobial susceptibility pattern analysis is an important component of the diagnosis and treatment of veterinary diseases. The article describes a study that includes isolation and identification of microorganisms from samples taken from pathological material of pigs and the analysis of sensitivity to eleven antimicrobial drugs by the disk-diffusion method.
