The results of current study reveals to that Out of 100 fish sample, E.coli isolated from 48 in rate of 48% , and 19 isolates out of 48 diagnosed as ESBL E.coli in rate of 39.5% , according to PCR test Stx1 gene detection on 31 isolates out of 48 isolates in rate of 64.5% while Stx2 gene detection on 39 isolates in rate of 81.2%.
