The high incidence of multidrug-resistant Salmonella Typhimurium and Salmonella Kentucky isolates is a concern for human and animal health. This study aimed to investigate the antibiotic resistance determinants of a total of 150 S. Typhimurium and S. Kentucky isolates obtained from cows, calves, lambs, and poultry. Salmonella isolates were tested against 13 different antimicrobials using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method, and genotypic antimicrobial resistance determinants were investigated by polymerase chain reaction. Significant differences were detected among serovars for gentamicin, streptomycin, ampicillin, sulfonamide, nalidixic acid, ciprofloxacin, and tetracycline resistance, with the rates of resistance to these antibiotics being determined to be …
Do Disturbed Environments Affect Density Of The Tunnel-Web Spider Acanthogonatus Centralis (Mygalomorphae: Nemesiidae) From Native Grasslands In Argentina?, Gabriel Pompozzi, Leonela Schwerdt, Sofia Copperi, Nelson Ferretti
Do Disturbed Environments Affect Density Of The Tunnel-Web Spider Acanthogonatus Centralis (Mygalomorphae: Nemesiidae) From Native Grasslands In Argentina?, Gabriel Pompozzi, Leonela Schwerdt, Sofia Copperi, Nelson Ferretti

Disturbance is an important factor affecting community composition and biodiversity in natural ecosystems. The Ventania hill system in central Argentina presents several ecosystem disturbances. Spiders are good candidates for studies related to human impact and conservation, as they can be good biological indicators of certain ecosystems. Therefore, we tried to elucidate if the abundance and spatial distribution of the mygalomorph spider Acanthogonatus centralis (Nemesiidae) are affected by different degrees of disturbance in these hilly grasslands. We studied 3 sites with different levels of disturbance located in the Ventania system in southwestern Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. We did not find differences …
