title: Multiresistant strains of Escherichia coli isolated from the rumen of young calves.
abstract: Five multiresistant strains of Escherichia coli were isolated from the rumen fluid of young calves. Resistance to tetracycline and ampicillin was found to be associated with the transfer of a 6.4 kbp plasmid present in two investigated strains.
