Presence of heavy metal resistance genes in Escherichia coli and Salmonella isolates and analysis of resistance gene structure in E. coli E308

Objectives: With the wide use of heavy metals as feed additives in animal production, little attention has been paid to heavy metal resistance in pathogenic bacteria. This study was performed to investigate the presence of heavy metal resistance genes (HMRGs) in Escherichia coli and Salmonella isola...
