Özet

The aim of this study was to isolate identify and detemine the antibiotic susceptibility of Campylobacter spp in aborted sheep fetues in Diyarbakir and its vicinity. The bacteria were isolated by conventional methods. Biochemical, growth and tolerance characteristics of the organism were used to identify the isolates. A total of 100 aborted fetues from 25 different locations were investigated and 10 (10%) yielded Campylobacter spp. Of the isolated bacteria, 7(7%) were C. fetus subsh. fetus and 3 (3%) were C. jejuni. All isolates were resistant to penicillin and susceptible to enrofloxacin; 9 isolates were inermediately susceptible to streptomycin, 8 isolates were intermediately susceptible to tetracycline and susceptible to gentamycin and neomcyin and 7 isolates were susceptible to erythromycin.
