per l’esecuzione del test sono spesso incompatibili con la
tempestività dell’intervento. Per questo appare importante il
costante lavoro di raccolta dati relativi allo spettro di sensibilità
dei ceppi circolanti in allevamento con l’obiettivo di delineare con
buona approssimazione il protocollo terapeutico più idoneo tra
quelli a disposizione del veterinario aziendale.
