“…The high prevalence could be traced to low sanitary practices observed in most of the farms from all the locations especially those in Usen and Uhen which actually recorded the highest prevalence. This prevalence rate seem to agree with that of Enabulele,et al, (2008) who worked on resistance pattern of salmonella isolates from food, animal and human sources. It also confirm the report of Anyanwu et al, (2010) who observed a pattern of salmonella infection that appear to be spreading among poultry farms in Nigeria in the form of epizootics.…”

“…Cephalexin (9%) and Gentamycin (10%) recorded the lowest prevalence rates which suggest they are the least abused of the antibiotics tested in this study. However the10% prevalence rate recorded for Gentamycin though low compared to that of Enabulele et al, (2008) is also worrisome for the fact that the mode of dispensing the drug in Nigeria is mostly by injections and are not supposed to be used indiscriminately in livestock medicine.…”

“…Thirty (30) samples each of faeces, poultry wall, poultry cages and water were collected from each of the five locations and cultured for the presence of Salmonella spp. All samples collected were cultured according to the method employed earlier by Enabulele et al (2008). This was done in selenite F broth in screwcaped bottles and incubated at 37 o C for 3-5 days.…”

“…The situation in the developing countries like Nigeria is however different, where antimicrobial agents are readily available to people in local drug stores without prescription (Kwaga and Adesiyu, 1984). Such practice has led to misuse of antibiotics with the associated high prevalence of antibiotic resistance among isolates from animal and food sources (Enabulele, et al, 2008). Consequent upon the above, this study examines and reports the prevalence and resistance pattern of salmonella isolates from poultry farms in Ovia north east local government area of Edo state, Nigeria, especially for the fact that the local government area is a very important source of agricultural produce to Edo and other neighboring states.…”

Water, fecal and swab samples of poultry walls and cages collected from various poultry farms located in five towns and villages in Ovia North east local government area of Edo State, Nigeria, were screened for the presence of Salmonella spp and antibiotic resistance pattern of the isolates. The prevalence rates recorded shows that Salmonella was isolated from all the sources investigated with varying rates which ranged from 27% for poultry cages to 80% recorded for fecal samples. Overall prevalence rates based on location ranged from 48% to 76%. Result of the resistance pattern of the Salmonella isolates from the various farms reveal that 62% of total 304 isolates tested were resistant to one or more of the antibiotics used with no significant difference in resistance pattern between the locations. Resistance to ampicillin appears to be the most common and was the highest (43%), followed by trimethoprim-sulphamethozazole (39%) and streptomycin (29%), with cephalexin (9%) and gentamycin (10%) recording the least resistance. Worrisome however is the fact the fluoroquinolones which are comparatively new, expensive and could be drug of choice should there be an outbreak, showed some significant degree of resistance (17%). The findings from this study present a potential health problem and are suggestive of the extent of misuse of drugs in medical and veterinary practice in Nigeria.

This study investigates the prevalence of R-plasmids in Salmonella sp. isolated from blood samples of suspected typhoid patients in Warri, Nigeria. A total of 136 blood samples were collected between May and December,2009 and screened for the presence of Salmonellae using standard blood culture techniques of which 20(14.7%) was positive for the pathogen. The multidrug resistant (MDR) isolates obtained (n=16; 80.0%), exhibiting the Ampicillin, Chloramphenicol, Cotrimoxazole and Tetracyclin (ACCoT) resistance profile, were subjected to plasmid curing. All (100%) of these MDR isolates bore their resistance markers on plasmids, as they lost their resistance sequel to the curing experiment. The low prevalence (14.7%) of the pathogen in the blood samples indicate that a good number of the suspected typhoid cases may not be incidences of the disease afterall. Furthermore, the high prevalence of MDR and plasmid-mediated MDR (80.0% and 100% respectively) isolates, suggest that treatment failures may be rampant if precise susceptibility test is not conducted prior to prescription.

A survey was conducted from March 2011 to July 2011 on antibiotic usage pattern in selected poultry farms in Ogun State. Using a well-structured questionnaire, a total of 58 poultry farms were randomly surveyed from the four geo-political zones of Ogun State. All the 58 (100%) poultry farms used one or more antibiotics. Antibiotics were commonly administered either for therapy (36.2%), prophylaxis (29.3%), or both (32.8%) and to lesser extent for growth promotion (6.9%). While Neoceryl R (a commercially prepared broad spectrum antibiotics consisting of neomycin, erythromycin, oxytetracycline, streptomycin and colistin), Enrofloxacin and Furazolidone were the commonest antibiotics used in the study area. Fluoroquinolones were the class of antibiotics commonly used. Thirty-three different patterns of antibiotic usage were observed among the poultry farms, 70.7% multi-drug usage practices (MDUP) was also observed among the poultry farms. In this study, 50% of poultry farmers have their antibiotics prescribed by veterinary doctors while 91.4% acquired antibiotics from veterinary stor es. This study has provided information on commonly used antibiotics and reasons for their use in the study location. It is anticipated that the findings of this survey will contribute to the development of strategies for prudent use of antibiotics in poultry farms.
