Abstract: GUTIERREZ, XYNA ANN G. Antibiotic Sensitivity Profile of Escherichia coli 0157 Isolates from the Feces of Native Goats (Capra hircus L.) from Selected Farms in Cavite. Undergraduate Thesis. Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2015. Adviser: Dr. Ma. Cynthia Dela Cruz. This study aimed to isolate Escherichia coli 0157 in the feces of Philippine native goats (Capra hircus L.) from selected areas in Cavite. One hundred eight (108) fecal samples were collected from Imus, Naic, General Trias and Indang, Cavite and were subjected to cultural, morphological, biochemical, and serological analysis. While this study was designed to isolate E. coli 0157: H7, only E. coli 0157was isolated. Two isolates were confirmed to be Escherichia coli 0157 with a prevalence rate of 1.85%. Antibiotic Susceptibility Test using the disk diffusion method showed susceptibility of the test organism to all antibiotic discs used except for one isolate which showed intermediate susceptibility to erythromycin. This study is the first report on the presence of E. coli 0157 in native goats in Cavite and hence, showed that these animals may serve as a source of infection.
