Multi-drug resistant pathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from wild birds, chicken, and the environment in Malaysia

Transmission of pathogenic microorganisms in the last decades has been considered a significant health hazard and pathogenic E. coli, particularly antibiotic-resistant strains, have long been identified as a zoonotic problem. This study aimed to investigate multidrug resistant pathogenic E. coli iso...
