Antibiotic resistance profile, potential drivers and genotype of Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp. and Vibrio sp. isolated from hybrid red tilapia and Asian seabass in the West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia

The intensive system of farm-raised fish accelerates the use of antibiotics which in turn increases the emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) within bacteria in an aquatic environment. The current study was designed to investigate the prevalence of E. coli, Salmonella and Vibrio sp. among the...

The current study was designed to investigate the prevalence of E. coli, Salmonella and Vibrio sp. among the cultured freshwater and brackish water fish in the central part of Peninsular Malaysia; determine the resistance pattern of E. coli, Salmonella and Vibrio isolates against selected antibiotics; identify aquaculture management practices and the environmental factors associated with the multidrug resistance (MDR); and characterize the isolates by molecular typing method to identify their profile and sequence type. Over a period of 12 months, a total of 32 fish farms from Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Melaka and Perak were sampled.
