| antimicrobial susceptibility and plasmid analysis of actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae isolated in taiwan. | sixty actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (app) strains from pigs in taiwan were examined. serotyping revealed that these belonged to serovars 1 (n=53), 2 (n=3), and 5 (n=4). agar disk diffusion susceptibility testing of the isolates showed 55 (92%) were resistant to three or more antimicrobial agents. six resistance patterns were observed. ampicillin-chloramphenicol-flumequine-nalidixic acid-streptomycin-sulfonamide/trimethoprim-tetracycline was the most common multi-resistance pattern. minimal inh ... | 2002 | 11731169 |
| serotypes, antimicrobial susceptibility, and minimal inhibitory concentrations of actionbacillus pleuropneumoniae isolated from slaughter pigs in taiwan (2002-2007). | in total, 211 isolates of a. pleuropneumoniae were collected from pigs with hemorrhagic pneumonia at slaughterhouses during 2002-2007. serotypes, antimicrobial susceptibility and minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) values were determined for each isolate of a. pleuropneumoniae to 10 antimicrobial agents. serovar 1 of a. pleuropneumoniae was predominant in taiwan in 138 of the 211 isolates, followed by serovars 2 and 5. more than 90% of collected isolates were sensitive to ceftiofur, cephaloth ... | 2010 | 20948169 |
| molecular characterization of enrofloxacin resistant actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae isolates. | enrofloxacin (er) resistant actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae strains emerged in taiwan in 2002. the mechanism of er resistance in a. pleuropneumoniae has not yet been reported. a total of 48 a. pleuropneumoniae isolates were obtained from the lungs of pigs with pleuropneumonia in taiwan between september 2007 and april 2008. twenty-nine isolates were found to be resistant to enrofloxacin. to understand the mechanisms of a. pleuropneumoniae's resistance to er, enrofloxacin susceptibility of the is ... | 2010 | 19913366 |
