Abstract

Present short work was designed to study incidences of Salmonella species in the raw seafood from local markets and fish collection jetties of Goa. Study observed 12% (24/200) of the raw sea foods (9.5% fish, 2% prawns and 0.5% crabs) contaminated with Salmonella spp. All the 24 isolates were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility by disc diffusion assay. Isolates were found resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (100%), ampicillin (41%) and tetracycline (25%). All the isolates were sensitive to ciprofloxacin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin and norfloxacin. Intermediate phenotypes were observed against nalidixic acid, kanamycin and gentamicin.The study shows occurrence of antibiotic resistant Salmonella species in retail fish markets and collection jetties in Goa, India.
