Table 3 Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC; %) of 52 E. coli isolates from 19 Ugandan pig herds. Ab indicates the antibiotics tested for in the panels, MIC50 and MIC90 indicates the concentrations where ≥50 and ≥90% of the isolates, respectively, are inhibited. Values within dashed lines indicate the antibiotic concentrations for which the isolates are tested for each antibiotic
