The bacteria were identified as L. garvieae based on some biochemical tests and Polymerase Chain Reaction insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PCR); assay. Following identification, the antibacterial susceptibility of bacteria was also determined for five different antibiotics by the disk diffusion method. All isolates were sensitive to florfenicol and amoxicillin-clavulanate and resistant to trimethoprim+sulfamethoxazole and enrofloxacin.
