is a serious threat to successful bovine farming. It causes severe damage to the buffalo and cattle health causing a drastic reduction in milk and meat production. In Pakistan, is a constant threat, and for its management, antibiotics are mostly used. Most bovine farmers use a single antibiotic to suppress the bacterial infection which in turn, increases the antimicrobial resistance (AMR) against the particular antibiotic. To reduce the resistance, the administration of multiple antibiotics in their standard doses at different times can be a possible remedy to manage the AMR and reduce their viability. This study aims to evaluate the effect of 11 commonly used antibiotics at their standard concentrations for inhibiting 33 strains of from five districts of Punjab province in Pakistan. Based on the zone of inhibition, ciprofloxacin, ampicillin, and cefotaxime (CAC) at their standard concentrations effectively inhibited the bacterium. These antibiotics showed appropriate significance statistically, i.e., correlation, Chi-square test, and cluster analysis. Optimization of these antibiotics using response surface methodology (RSM) revealed that the selected antibiotics from medium to high range not only reduce the bacterial propagation but also their population up to a considerable extent. Hence, the health of milk- and meat-producing large animals could be improved, which will be cost-effective and less harmful to the animal, human health, and the environment. Moreover, optimized administration of the selected antibiotics would reduce the impact of drug-resistant superbugs.
对成功的养牛业构成严重威胁。它会对水牛和牛的健康造成严重损害,导致牛奶和肉类产量大幅下降。在巴基斯坦,这是一个持续存在的威胁,为了应对它,人们大多使用抗生素。大多数养牛户使用单一抗生素来抑制细菌感染,这反过来又增加了对特定抗生素的抗微生物耐药性(AMR)。为了降低耐药性,在不同时间以标准剂量施用多种抗生素可能是一种管理AMR并降低其生存能力的补救措施。本研究旨在评估11种常用抗生素在其标准浓度下对来自巴基斯坦旁遮普省五个地区的33株[细菌名称未给出]的抑制作用。基于抑菌圈,环丙沙星、氨苄西林和头孢噻肟(CAC)在其标准浓度下能有效抑制该细菌。这些抗生素在统计学上显示出适当的显著性,即相关性、卡方检验和聚类分析。使用响应面方法(RSM)对这些抗生素进行优化后发现,从中等到高剂量范围内选择的抗生素不仅能减少细菌繁殖,还能在相当程度上减少其数量。因此,可以改善产奶和产肉大型动物的健康状况,这将具有成本效益,并且对动物、人类健康和环境的危害较小。此外,优化所选抗生素的施用将减少耐药超级细菌的影响。
