In this study, presence of motile Aeromonas spp. in different foods of animal origin and water by cultural method and detection to antibiotic susceptibilities of the isolates were investigated. A total of 224 food samples such as fish, chicken, fishery products, milk, meat and water supplied from points of sale like market and bazaar in and around Izmir have been examined. Aeromonas selective agar was used for Aeromonas spp. isolation. Gram-negative and oxidase positive colonies were assessed in Vitek 2 system (France) for identification. Of 224 food samples (meat, chicken, fish, fishery products, milk and water) 87 have been found to be positive for motile Aeromonas spp. According to the study, 51 (22.76%) of them were determined as A. hydrophila, 26 (11.6%) of them as A. caviae and 10 (4.6%) of them as A. sobria. Antibiotic susceptibility of Aeromonas isolates was determined according to the Kirby Bauer disk diffusion method. All Aeromonas spp. isolates have been found to be susceptible to imipenem and ciprofloxacin.
