In this report, we describe recovery of multiple drug resistance organism resistant to most of the antibiotics with coexistence of ESBL, Carbapenam and AmpC ß-lactamase genes isolated from the bovine clinical endometritisin the Mathura region of India.Sampling involvesuterine discharge collected from 70 postpartum cattle diagnosed with metritis. Out of 62 bacterial isolates recovered, seven were showing carbapenamase resistant phenotype baseddisc diffusion test.MIC testing and phenotypic detection methodconfirmed resistance to imepenam for isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n=1),E. coli (n=2) and Enterobacter agglomerance (n=1). Multiplex PCR based genotyping confirmed presence Ambler class B Carbapenemase (VIM and IMP), along with TEM and CTX-M type ESBL respectively. All four isolates were phenotypically confirmed as AmpC β-lactamase producers.
