MIC (μg/mL) determined in accordance with CLSI standards. Abbreviations: +, presences of the resistance gene; AMP, ampicillin; STR, streptomycin; SMX, sulfamethoxazole; TET, tetracyclin; TMP, trimethoprim. The isolates were susceptible to the following antimicrobial agents: AMC, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid; APR, apramycin; CHL, chloramphenicol; CIP, ciprofloxacin; COL, colistin; CTX, cefotaxime; FFN, florfenicol; GEN, gentamicin; NAL, nalidixic acid; NEO, neomycin; SPT, spectinomycin; XNL, ceftiofur.
