Abstract
this work was carried out to isolate Campylobacter coli infection from chickens at small poultry processing shops in Alexandria province and from sheep and cattle at farms in El-Behera province, and analysis of whole cell protein profile.
The results are summarized as follows:
1.Ten out of 125 examined chickens were positive for Campylobacter coil at a percentage of 8% including caecal, cloacal and gallbladder at percentage of 1.6, 5.6 and 0.8,
respectively.
2.Two out of 96 examined cattle were positive for Campylobacter
coil at a percentage of 2%.
3.Four out of 102 examined sheep were positive for Campylobacter coil at a percentage of 3.92%.
4.SDS-PAGE revealed characteristic variable bands between Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni and within Campylobacter coil isolates which make it a possible method for differentiation of the whole cell protein profiles of all examined isolates dominated by the presence of 7 bands of
molecular weight.
5.In vitro antimicrobial sensitivity test revealed that:
■ In case of chicken, neomycin gave the highest sensitivity against Campylobacter coli isolates (90%), but the isolates were resistant to tetracycline (90%) followed by
Su(80%) for each.
■In case of sheep, the highest sensitivity was to neomycin, ampicillin and chloramphenicol (100%) but resistant to
erythromycin and nalidixic acid.
■In case of cattle, the highest sensitivity was to neomycin
(100%) and chloramphenicol (50%), and resistant to streptomycin, gentamycin, tetracycline, nalidixic acid, erythromycin, sulphamethoxazole, penicillin and ampicillin (100%) for each.
