tailieunhanh - Detection of E. coli from sheep and goat faecal samples and identification by conventional and molecular assay

E. coli is a Gram negative bacteria belonging to enterobacteriacea family. They are commonly found in the intestine of animals and humans. Most E. coli are harmless but some can cause infection. In our study, we isolated from 100 (50 from sheep and 50 from goats) faecal samples of diarrhoeic as well as healthy sheep. Isolation was done on BHI, MLA and EMB agar. The isolated bacteria suspected for E. coli were subjected to biochemical tests viz catalase, oxidase and IMViC. The isolates confirmed by biochemical tests were further confirmed by genus specific PCR. Out of 100 samples, 40 samples were positive for presence of E. coli. On BHI creamy mucoid colonies were formed, while as on MLA lactose fermenting pink colonies were formed. On EMB, colonies with characteristic metallic sheen were formed. All the isolates were catalase positive, oxidase negative and gave a characteristic pattern in IMViC test . indole positive, methyl red positive, Voges Prausker and citrate negative. The 40 isolates were subjected to genus specific PCR out of which 26 isolates were confirmed as E. coli. | Detection of E. coli from sheep and goat faecal samples and identification by conventional and molecular assay
