nitrofurantoin; Cf, cefuroxime; Nb, norfloxacin; Co, cotrimoxazole; Gn, gentamicin; Te,

Anti-microbial Resistance Profile of E. coli Isolates Old Layers: E. coli isolates from the
old layers, (Figure 3), recorded 100% resistance against nitrofurantoin,
cotrimoxazole, tetracycline, chloramphenicol and ampicillin, while 80% resistance
was recorded against nalidixic acid. Zero resistance was on the other hand recorded
against gentamicin.
