biostudies-literatureUnknown7(3)Hassan WH<h4>Objective</h4>This study was performed to probe the antimicrobial resistance and virulence genes profiling in <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> recovered from the cases of pericarditis in broiler chickens.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>The samples (<i>n</i> = 250) collected from the cases of pericarditis in broiler chickens were bacteriologically examined. Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested by disc diffusion technique. The isolates were genotypically studied for the presence of antimicrobial resistance and virulence gene traits. Finally, the nucleotide sequence of representative resistance gene (<i>mexR</i> gene) and virulence genes (<i>tox</i>A and <i>las</i>I genes) was analyzed.<h4>Results</h4><i>P. aeruginosa</i> was isolated from 45 samples (18%).
