The present study was conducted to isolate, identified Escherichia coli from healthy and diarrheic cattle and buffalo calves and determine their antibiotic sensitivity pattern to commonly used antibiotics. A total 100 E. coli isolated from 104 rectal swabs sample from healthy and diarrheic cattle and buffalo calves were subjected to antibiotic sensitivity pattern against 08 different antibiotics by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. The antibiotic sensitivity pattern showed that the E. coli isolated from healthy and diarrheic cattle calves showed higher resistance against ampicillin (88.88%), tetracycline (44.44%) and ampicillin (62.50%), co-trimoxazole (54.16%), respectively. While, healthy cattle calves showed higher resistance against ampicillin (46.15%) and cotrimoxazole (23.07%) whereas from diarrheic buffalo ampicillin (52.17%) and cotrimoxazole (39.13%) were recorded.
