Escherichia coli is a bacteria belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae. Escherichia coli is a harmful gram bacterium living in the digestive tract. These bacteria also live in water and soil, commonly referred to as coliform. This research aims to analyze the plasmid profile of Escherichia coli bacteria and its resistance to some antibiotics. To explore the plasmid profiles of Escherichia coli in a recent research electrophoresis gel, the antibiotic used in its resistance tests is the Amoxicillin, Tetracycline antibiotic, Ciprofloxacin, Sulfamethoxazole, and Streptomycin antibiotic. The electrophoresis results in a difference in the number of plasmid profiles with 1 to 2 ribbons of plasmid DNA different sizes from ˜1500 bp to ˜2300 bp. Antibiotic resistance tests have occurred in Amoxicillin, Ciprofloxacin, and some resistance samples to the Streptomycin antibiotic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
