| dc.description.abstract | Antibiotics are widely used in poultry for therapeutic, prophylactic, and
growth promotion purposes. S. aureus resistant to antibiotic, also an opportunist
pathogen cause infection in human and animal. The aim of this research was to
determine the antibiotic resistance of S. aureus were isolated from the cloaca
swabs in from one broilers farm in Cibangbara Village, Sukabumi District. Fifteen
S. aureus isolated showed present of S. aureus. The antibiotics that were used in
this study were tetracycline, oxytetracycline, erythromycin, nalidixic acid,
ampicillin, chloramphenicol and gentamicin. The resistance of S. aureus to
various antibiotics was tested by the Kirby-Bauer method. The results were
compared with Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI 2008). S. aureus
isolates were resistant towards tetracycline (100%), oxytetracycline (100%),
erythromycin (100%), nalidixic acid (60%), ampicillin (26.7%), chloramphenicol
(20%), and gentamicin (6.7%). In conclusion, S. aureus showed resistant to
tetracycline, oxytetracycline and erythromycin while still susceptible toward
gentamicin and chloramphenicol. | id |
