Food safety problems bring into focus the importance of primary production. The application of antimicrobial drugs in therapy, prophylaxis and growth promotion in food producing animals raised the question of development of bacterial resistance while still they are in the body of animal, possible transfer on humans via food chain and development of human diseases treatment failures. Relationship between presence of flumequine resistant C. jejuni in poultry carcasses and flumquine treatment of poultry was examined in the experimental design. Treatment with flumequine selects resistant strains in chickens carcasses, C jejuni strains resistant to flumequine were isolated from 22.23% carcasses (MIC flumequine 16 micro g/g). In control groups, after slaughtering resistant C. jejuni strains were not isolated. The experiment proved that the usage of veterinary drugs in primary production results in appearance of resistant pathogens in the final products.
