Detection of Resistance Genes in Escherichia coli Isolated from Fishes and Shellfishes in Creek Road/Bonny Estuary, Port Harcourt, Nigeria

Constancy Prisca Aleru · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2022

Resistance bacteria may be transferred to humans through the consumption of fishes and shellfishes. Hence, this study characterised E. coli isolates from fishes and shellfishes in Creek Road/Bonny Estuary, with the use of molecular techniques. Seventy two (72) fishes and shellfis...
