Methods Determination of KB isolates to tetracycline and other antibiotics of 21 cases, with PCR used to detect tetracycline resistance gene tetA, tetB, tetC, tetD, tetE, tetG and tetK, and amplified products were sequenced. The results of all clinical isolates resistant to tetracycline, 33 Salmonella has 29 specific fragments amplified tetB, gene sequence homology with the reference strains of 99%, tetB detection and drug susceptibility testing positive consistent rate was 879 %. Conclusion tetB of PCR detection of tetracycline resistance have a high specificity, tetB genes in this experiment is to determine tetracycline-resistant clinical isolates of the major genes for tetracycline resistance provides the basis for molecular epidemiology surveillance.

Methods The resistance of Salmonella isolates were detected by drug susceptibility tests with KirbyBauer (KB) diffusion method. PCR was designed to detect tetA, tetB , tetC, tetD, tetE, tetG and tetK. The amplified products were sequenced and alignment analysis was performed. Results The detection of tetracyclineresistance of 33 Salmonella isolates showed the resistance rate was 100%, but only the tetB was amplified from 29 of 33 isolates . The gene fragment
