Out of 190 isolates, 57 showed high levels of auto-aggregation (> 80.00%) and hydrophobicity (> 60.00%) and 51 of the 57 isolates had a zone of inhibition greater than 15.00 mm in diameter against multidrug-resistant <i>E. coli</i> in an Agar well diffusion assay. Among the 51 isolates, 36 were found to be acid and bile tolerant and showed varying levels of sensitivity to antibiotics such as erythromycin, clindamycin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, and ampicillin. Among the 36 isolates, <i>Limosilactobacillus reuteri</i> <i>178</i>, <i>L. reuteri</i> <i>209</i>, <i>L. fermentum 182</i>, <i>L. fermentum</i> <i>211</i>, and <i>Lactiplanti-bacillus plantarum</i> <i>34</i> were non-hemolytic, and none of the isolates were able to hydrolyse gelatine. Therefore, these five autochthonous <i>Lactobacillus</i> species may be used in probiotic or synbiotic formulations against multidrug resistant <i>E. coli</i> in buffalo calves.</p>","PeriodicalId":23989,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Research Forum","volume":"15 6","pages":"275-282"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11260225/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141735188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
