Determination of antibiotic susceptibilities of Aeromonas spp. strains isolated from medicinal leech (Hirudo verbana) and multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) index results.
Journal Title: Journal of Advances in VetBio Science and Techniques - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial susceptibility, Multiple Antibiotic Resistance (MAR) indices and the presence of plasmids of motile Aeromonas strains isolated from medicinal leech (Hirudo verbana). Antibiotic susceptibilities of the strains (ampicillin, kanamycin, chloramphenicol, nalidixic acid, streptomycin, tetracycline, trimethoprim and trimethoprim+sulphamethoxazole) were determined by standard disc diffusion technique. The plasmid isolation was determined by manually. The Multiple Antibiotic Resistance (MAR) index of the strains was calculated. According to the study results, it was determined that the strains were resistant against one antibiotic. The isoalted strains contained plasmids.
