Sažetak

105 isolates of Enterococcus spp. were selected as representative samples from different herds of pigs (n=25), cattle (n=46) and poultry (n=34). Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined according to epidemiological cut-off values. The highest number of strains demonstrated epidemiological resistance to lincomycin (78%), tetracycline, (65%), flavomycin (59%) and erythromycin (55%). The smallest number of strains was resistant to linezolid (1%) and tigecycline (2%). Six percent of all tested strains were epidemiologically resistant to
ciprofloxacin, vancomycin and daptomycin. Cattle isolates showed the most frequent resistance to fl avomycin (71%), lincomycin (54%), tetracycline (45%), streptomycin (40%) and erythromycin (40%). Enterococci isolated from pigs showed the highest resistance to tetracycline and lincomycin (92%), erythromycin (76%), kanamycin (56%) and streptomycin (52%). All strains isolated from poultry were epidemiologically resistant to lincomycin. The most frequent resistance of poultry strains was also demonstrated to tetracycline (72%), erythromycin (63%), streptomycin (50%), flavomycin (48%) and tylosin (47%). However all strains isolated from poultry were susceptible to chloramphenicol, quinupristin/dalfopristin, linezolid and bacitracin.
