Abstract
Antibiotic resistance pattern in Escherichia coli isolated from �Panipuri�, a street food from Guwahati city, Assam, India was studied. The study was undertaken to investigate microbial safety aspects of �Panipuri� sold in Guwahati city enjoyed by wide sections of urban society. 96 �Panipuri� samples were collected from different market places in the Guwahati city. A total number of 57 isolates of Escherichia coli were isolated from these samples. The E. coli isolates were tested against 11 different antimicrobial agents� viz., amikacin, ampicillin, cefotaxime, cefoxitin, cefpodoxime, ceftazidime, chloramphenicol, imipenem, nalidixic acid, streptomycin, tetracycline by standard method. It was found that 59.37% of �Panipuri� samples had high loads of bacterial pathogen such as E. coli and about 51% of them were Multiple Antibiotic Resistant (MAR) isolates. The risks associated with such common food are discussed.
