only co-trimoxazol was tested, sulfamethoxazol was not available.
potential resistance against erythromycin was not tested.
AMR phenotype without AMR genotype was detected.
All AMR genes detected in 34 Salmonella strains listed and compared with the AMR phenotype. The phenotype was defined using a VITEK 2 system with an AST-N111 panel and a disk diffusion assay using Oxoid discs with chloramphinicol (30 mg), streptomycin (10 mg) and kanamycin (30 mg).
