摘要：Introduction and Objectives. Antimicrobial resistance of pathogenic bacteria can result in therapy failure, increasedhospitalization, and increased risk of death. In Poland, Salmonella spp. is a major bacterial agent of food poisoning. Themajority of studies on antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella spp. isolates from food have focused on meat products as thesource of this pathogen. In comparison, this study examines the antimicrobial susceptibility of Salmonella spp. isolated fromretail food products other than meat in Poland.Materials and Methods. A collection of 122 Salmonella spp. isolates were isolated in Poland in 2008–2012 from foodsother than meat: confectionery products, eggs, fruits, vegetables, spices and others. The resistance of these isolates to19 antimicrobial agents was tested using the disc diffusion method.Results. Salmonella Enteritidis was the most frequently identified serotype (84.4% of all tested isolates). In total, 42.6% of theSalmonella spp. isolates were resistant to antibiotics. The highest frequencies of resistance were observed in isolates from2009 (60.0%) and 2012 (59.5%). Antibiotic resistance was most prevalent among Salmonella spp. isolated from egg-containingfood samples (68.0%). Resistance to nalidixic acid was most common and was observed in 35.2% of all tested isolates. Theisolates were less frequently resistant to sulphonamides (6.6%), ampicillin (4.9%), amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (2.5%) and tostreptomycin, cefoxitin, gentamicin and tetracycline (1.6%). Only one isolate showed resistance to chloramphenicol. Fourisolates displayed multiresistance.Conclusions. Although, the level of resistance and multiresistance of Salmonella spp. isolates from non-meat foods was lowerthan in those from meat products, the presence of these resistant bacteria poses a real threat to the health of consumers
