N2  - This research study was conducted to determine the occurrence of E.coliand Salmonellain beef and to study their antibiotic resistance profiles. Beef samples (15) were collected fromTalad Thaimarket, Pathum Thani area, Thailand and analyzed through culture methods for possible contamination of E. coliand Salmonella.E. coliwas found in 9 out of 15 samples (60%),  while Salmonella was  found  in  3  samples  (20%).  All  12  isolates  were  confirmed through biochemical tests which included: TSI, Indole test, Methyl red test, Voges Proskauer test,  and  Citrate  test.  Antibiogram  analysis  revealed  that  bacterial  isolates  were  resistant against   some   tested   antibiotics.E.coliresistance   was   recorded   against   Ampicillin, Amoxicillin and Tetracycline (44.44%), Sulfamethoxazole/Trimethoprim, Chloramphenicol (22.22%)  and  Streptomycin  (11.11%).  All Salmonellaisolates  were  resistant  against Tetracycline (100%)  and Chloramphenicol (33.33%).This study confirms  the presence of E.  coliand Salmonellain  beef  meat  and  their  resistance  towards  common  commercial antibiotics which may be potential threat to consumer{u2019}s health. Good hygienic practices during the slaughter processing, transport and storage of beef can reduce the contamination.
