Abstract | ||
Forty fecal samples were collected from healthy camels in Mosul province in period from December 2013 to April 2014. Bacterial culture technique, biochemical tests and API 20 E system were used for bacterial isolation and identification. The result showed that bacteria isolated in rate of 87.5% (35/40), Escherichia coli isolated in rate of 15/35(31.4%), followed Klebsiella pneumonia 7/35(20%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa 6/35(17.1%), Proteus vulgris 4/35 (11.4%) and the lowest percentage was for Staphylococcus aureus 3/35 (8.5%). Antibacterial profile of bacterial isolates from camel feces according to antibiotic disc diffusion method were applied to each of kanamycin, ampicillin, chloramphenicol, tobramycin, tetracycline, amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin, all the isolates resistance proportion for tetracycline is 100%. | ||
