High β-lactam resistance in Gram-negative bacteria associated with kennel cough and cat flu in Egypt

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance within pets has gained worldwide attention due to pets close contact with humans. This report examined at the molecular level, the antimicrobial resistance mechanisms associated with kennel cough and cat flu. 1378 pets in total were assessed for signs of respiratory...
