Isolation and Identification of the Most Common Bacteria Isolated from Intestine of Broiler Chickens in Egypt

Bacteria are seriously affecting broiler chickens and the poultry industry in many countries, as well as in Egypt. Both pathogenic and nonpathogenic bacterial species have been reported in broiler chickens. The present study aimed to isolate and identify the most common bacteria recovered from appar...
