Resistance to antibiotics in aquatic and marine environments in the UAE
The aim of this study was to isolate, grow and characterise Escherichia coli from water samples taken from coastal and inland areas within the United Arab Emirates. A total of 256 E. coli from twelve locations were isolated and tested for antibiotic sensitivity using EUVSEC and EUVSEC 2 plates (Thermo Scientific). A subset of isolates (n = 92) were sequenced to provide insight into their genetic diversity and mechanisms of resistance.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
