Our research particularly focuses on urinary tract infections in dogs and cats with the current projects (1) Antibiotic susceptibility and mechanisms of resistance of canine uropathogenic bacteria; (2) Pathotypic traits of E. coli isolated from the urinary tract of dogs; (3) Urinary tract infections in pets with concurrent endocrine disease.Next : Publications
