DETERMINATION OF SENSITIVITY AND RESISTANCE TO ANTI-MICROBIAL ENTEROBACTERIA FOR DISEASES OF THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT IN DOGS AND CATS IN THE CITY OF KOSTANAY

Abstract

Our article presents the data of scientific research conducted within the framework of the project "Prevalence
of determinants of resistance to antibacterial drugs" of the grant funding of the Science Committee
of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan for 2021-2023. Samples were taken
from the pharynx and anus of small domestic animals (cat, dog) with inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal
tract, who sought therapeutic help in veterinary clinics of the city of Kostanay, to determine the
sensitivity of the microflora to antimicrobial drugs, to identify resistant bacteria and for the effectiveness of
the treatment. Since antimicrobial therapy is widely used in the treatment of small pets. Knowledge of the
secreted enetrobacteria in diseases of the gastrointestinal tract of cats and dogs and preferences for antimicrobial
resistance is an important factor for successful therapy. Enterobacteria were detected in the studied
animals (n - 52). In clinical samples from the pharynx and anal opening in both animal species, the main
bacterium secreted was E. coli. Rare bacterial agents were Proteus and Klebsiella bacteria, which showed
high resistance to most antimicrobial drugs.
Our research can help clinical practitioners in making rational decisions when treating antimicrobial
drugs.
