Abstract

The article discusses the study on the antimicrobial profile resistance of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium that were isolated from poultry carcasses. It details how the study was conducted, which involved the use of polymerase chain reaction for the detection of antimicrobial resistance genes. The results reportedly revealed high resistance to antimicrobials as the microorganisms can transmit genes to others in humans' and animals' intestinal tract.
