The aim of the present study was designed to assess the frequency and distribution of E. coli strains isolated from live broiler chickens and their farm environment that had acquired resistance to oxytetracycline and ciprofloxacin. Screening for the presence of some of the predominant genes determining oxytetracycline resistance was also carried out and risks associated with the isolation frequency of oxytetracycline- and ciprofloxacin-resistant strains were further evaluated.

A cross-sectional survey was done with sampling of broiler chickens on 30 farms randomly selected from the district of Chittagong, Bangladesh, and their environments.
