Twenty single source crossbred steers were enrolled in a cohort study. Steers were randomly assigned to an exposed cohort (n=10) or an unexposed cohort (control cohort:10). Chlortetracycline (22 mg/kg) in cottonseed meal was administered to the exposed cohort on days 0 through 4, 6 through 10, and 12 through 16/ The control cohort was administered only cottonseed meal.

Fecal samples were collected from 16 steers on days -7, 0, 2, 6, 8, 12, 14, 22, 26 and 22, and Escherichia coli and Enterococcs spp were isolated.
