Biofilm of Antibiotics Resistant Salmonella Typhimurium and Salmonella Enteritidis Against Detergents
Salmonella is able to produce biofilm which is more resistant toward disinfectants and antibodics than its planktonic form. Salmonella typhimurium from beef and Salmonela Enteritidis from raw vegetables isolates were tested for their susceptibility using 18 different antibiotics. Salmonella typhimur...

| Summary: | Salmonella is able to produce biofilm which is more resistant toward disinfectants and antibodics than its planktonic form. Salmonella typhimurium from beef and Salmonela Enteritidis from raw vegetables isolates were tested for their susceptibility using 18 different antibiotics. Salmonella typhimurium isolate was resistant
toward Streptomycin, Sulfamethoxazole, Penicillin, Erythromycin, Tetracyclin, Ampicillin, Rifampicin and Clarithromycin while Salmonella enteritidis was resistant toward Amikacin, Streptomycin,
Penicillin, Cipfoflaxin, Erythromycin, Ampicilin, Tetracyclin,
Rifampicin, Cepthalothin, Amikacin, Chloramphenicol and
Clarithromycin. Both of Salmonella isolates showed MAR index >
0.2, indicating that these isolates might be originated from high risk
sources. Out of the five detergents, Detergent 3 (D3) (Linear alkyl
Sulfonic acid was found to be the most effective. The Minimum
Inhibition Concentrations (MICs) and Minimal Bactericidal
Concentration (MBCs) was ranged from 6250 – 25,000 μg/ml and
25,000 to > 50000 μg/ml, respectively. Biofilm-producing ability of
antibiotics -resistant Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella
enteritidis were inhibited at 12,500 – 25,000 μg/ml and eradicated at
>50000 μg/ml. Therefore, Detergents showed potential antimicrobial
activity against Salmonella. |
