My research interest lies in understanding the mechanisms by which bacteria acquire antimicrobial resistance and target it to enhance effectiveness of the antibiotics, especially in chicken. Probiotics is one of the promising alternatives to the antibiotics. It enhances the growth of the beneficial microorganism while suppresses the pathogenic microorganism. I want to identify probiotics with therapeutic potential against the avian pathogenic E. coli. Works - Any -Journal articleBook/book chapterReportWorking paperPolicy briefPresentationData
