Abstract
The growth of antibiotic resistance in circulating bacterial pathogens determines the need for improvement in veterinary approaches to the therapeutic and preventive management of bacterial infections. This study is dedicated to investigating the drift of antibiotic resistance in zoopathogenic Moraxella, the causative agents of infectious keratoconjunctivitis in cattle. The article presents a retrospective analysis of primary scientific data from research groups of foreign authors, compared with our own results on the drug resistance of current epizootic strains of Moraxella bovis and M. bovoculi. The analysis showed that since the 1982 study and ending with the own results obtained at the present time, there has been an increase in the resistance of M. bovis and M. bovoculi to antibiotics. However, a still high level of sensitivity in moraxella is detected for antibiotics of the fluoroquinolone and cephalosporin groups, as well as for ampicillin and benzylpenicillin, the studied bacteria were the most sensitive, despite the fact that resistance was recorded for oxacillin and methicillin from the same group.
