Abstract

The present study was carried out to study serotypes and drug resistance pattern of E.coli isolated from fecal samples of kites. Out of 40 fecal samples, 14 (35%) isolates revealed morphological, cultural and biochemical characteristics of E.coli.. On serotyping, out of 14 isolates, 3 were non typable, 3 were non-viable and 8 belonged to 6 serogroups viz., O:157(1), O:153(1), O:159(3), O:152(1), O:132(1) and O:2(1). Antibiotic sensitivity pattern showed highest sensitivity towards chloramphenicol, amoxicillin and gentamycin. The isolates were found resistant to ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, cephalaxein, ceftriaxone, oxytetracline and neomycin.
