Abstract
Objective: in fresh camel milk. Materials and Methods: incidence through conventional bacterial isolation, molecular investigation, and gene sequencing. Results: isolates showed high susceptibility to norfloxacin (10 µg) and cefoperazone (75 µg). On the other hand, high resistance was found in rifamycin (30 µg) and cefoxitin (30 µg). Conclusion: The results indicate that market camel milk is more contaminated than the farms' own. Additionally, antibiotic resistance is increasing due to antibiotic abuse.
