Prevalence and characterization of antibiotic susceptibility of <i>Campylobacter</i> strains from the chicken meat industry in Bosnia and Herzegovina

The study showed the presence of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli isolates resistant to the critically important antibiotic ciprofloxacin. Cessation of the use of fluoroquinolones in broilers would have a positive impact on the reduction of antibiotic-resistant Campylobacter isolates in the chicken meat industry. This original research does not include samples from primary production, nor does it include genotypic characterization of antibiotic resistance genes, which would be important to do in future research in order to open new broader perspectives in the approached research area. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
