- Abstract
The antibiogram observed against 163 coagulate negative streptococcus spp. isolates (Streptococcus equi 42.94%, followed by Streptococcus zooepidemicus 32.51%, Streptococcus pyogenes 13.49%, Streptococcus pneumoniae 9.20% and Streptococcus mitis 1.84% form normal stage) and revealed that Streptomycin was the most effective antibiotic against all the isolates from horse and donkey. The highest resistance Streptomycin (100%) and Ampicillin (100%) was shown towards cefixime followed by Kanamycin (90%), Cephalexin (85%), Vancomycin (80%), Penicillin G (75%) and Tetracycline (60%). In antibiogram no difference or resistance pattern was observed against isolates from horses and donkeys.
