Antibiotic Resistance Gene Detection using UVP GelSolo

Antibiotic Resistance Gene Detection using UVP GelSolo

Escherichia coli is a natural inhabitant of the gastrointestinal tracts of humans and animals and has been listed by the World Health Organization as one of the leading antibiotic-resistant pathogens. In Bangladesh, like many developing countries, uncontrolled antibiotics used in food animals, outdated food processing technology, and inadequate surveillance for antimicrobial resistance raise the threat of resistant E. coli strains. The current study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of Escherichia coli, its antibiogram profiles, and antibiotic resistance genes from raw meat purchased from retail stores in the Rajshahi division of Bangladesh. To confirm the presence of E.coli in these meats, the UVP GelSolo was employed.
