A total of 202 Escherichia coli isolated from urban and rural water were tested with 11 antibiotics to assess the prevalence of antibiotic resistance from each source. Urban waters harbored higher percentages of resistant E. coli strains than rural waters. Antibiotic-resistant E. coli may offer an index of water quality related to source.
从城市和农村水体中分离出的总共202株大肠杆菌,用11种抗生素进行测试,以评估每个来源的抗生素耐药性流行情况。城市水体中携带耐药大肠杆菌菌株的百分比高于农村水体。抗生素耐药性大肠杆菌可能提供与水源相关的水质指标。
