    Abstract:
    Cloacal examination of 41 juvenile black-headed gulls (Larus ridibundus) by cultivation demonstrated Campylobacter jejuni in 26 (63%) and Salmonella typhimurium in 21 (51%) of them. All the bird samples were collected in a breeding colony near the town Hodonin, South Moravia, Czech Republic in 1996. Twenty six Campylobacter isolates were tested for antibiotic and drug sensitivity: all were resistant to at least three agents (Penicillin, Tetracyclin and Sulfomethoxazol-trimethoprim) while all were sensitive to Augmentan, Cefotaxim, Ciprofloxacin, Erythromycin, Nitrofurantoin and Cephazidine. Four percent of isolates were resistant to Ampicillin and Nalidixic acid. Of the 21 S. typhimurium isolates tested, 33% were sensitive to all drugs assayed, proportions of the strains resistant to Sulfomethoxazol-trimethoprim, Tetracyclin and Streptomycin were 58%, 16% and 8%, respectively.
