Antimicrobial Susceptibility Profiles of Escherichia coli Isolates from Clinical Cases of Chickens in Hungary Between 2022 and 2023.

ABSTRACT: Background: The global spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) necessitates collaborative approaches between animals, their environment, and public health sectors, fostering the One Health concept. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a zoonotic, facultative pathogenic bacterium. Its public health significance underlines the need for the regular monitoring of different strains causing clinical disease, especially in poultry, more specifically in chickens, which have become a critical source of animal protein. Methods: The antimicrobial susceptibility of 133 E. coli strains isolated from clinical cases in large-scale Hungarian poultry between 2022 and 2023 was assessed via the gold-standard minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determination, which provides int
