SUMMARY:

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is responsible for many pathological conditions in birds which cause a big damage to the poultry sector. This microorganism has great potential for resistance to antimicrobials and is difficult to eliminate at the environmental level. Detecting the pathogenicity of strains of Escherichia coli isolated from broiler chickens, identifying the capacity for biofilm formation in vitro and the susceptibility characteristics to antimicrobials and sanitizers routinely used in the poultry breeding process is essential to know the epidemiology of this bacterium. The study will use 120 isolates of Escherichia coli from the database of clinical cases obtained by the Animal Health laboratory strains of colibacillosis in broiler chickens in poultry farms located in the west of Santa Catarina, in 2020. Only the isolates that present pathogenicity genes in the real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction test will be selected and evaluated in vitro for the formation and characterization of biofilms, susceptibility test to antibiotics, using the disc-diffusion technique and sensitivity to sanitizers through the European standard methodology. The data obtained will be analyzed by the Tukey test at 5% significance, F test, Broken line regression test. It is believed that isolated samples of pathogenic avian Escherichia coli are potentially biofilm-forming, consequently they are resistant to antimicrobials and sanitizers used in poultry.
