Abstract

193 strains of Salmonella gall imam m, 47 strains of S. pullorum and 14 strains of motile salmonellae, isolated during the period 1975-1982 from several species of birds, were tested against the antibiotics: ampicillin, neomycin, streptomycin, kanamycin, terramycin, aureomycin, chloramphenicol and the nitrofurans: furaltadone, furazolidone, by the disc method in Mueller Hinton agar. S. gallinarum was more sensitive to nitrofurans (furazolidone and furaltadone) but the difference was significant (P<0.5) only to aureomycin, neomycin and streptomycin. Apart to nitrofurans, S. pullorum was very sensitive to cloramphenicol. The sensitivity of motile salmonellae to ampicillin was very high
