Abstract:The occurrence of heavy metal-resistant bacteria in the environment acts as an indicator of heavy metal pollution. The impact of heavy metal contamination in co-selection and proliferation of antimicrobial[1]resistant bacteria is well-documented in existing literature. The present study aims to determine the occurrence of chromium-resistant bacteria (CRB) in poultry feces and to characterize their antimicrobial resistance and biofilm formation ability. 28 CRBs were isolated by inoculating samples on chromium-a… Show more
