Abstract

Intestinal microbiota of the chickens is composed by many species of bacteria that benefit the host in many ways during its life. When the host is submitted to inadequate treatments with antibiotics, this microbiota suffers a selection trial, becoming resistant to these drugs. It was evaluated the resistance profile of Escherichia coli isolated from intestine of healthy posture hens to the antibiotics. From 100 samples analyzed, 83 showed resistance to more than three antibiotics, and two were resistant to all of the tested antibiotics.
