Abstract
⺠Antibiotic resistant bacteria was found in the oviductal fluid of the nesting green turtle. ⺠Marine turtles are exposed to different contaminated effluents, such as sewage. ⺠Contaminated effluents may contain antibiotic resistant bacteria. ⺠The presence of antibiotic resistant bacteria may be used as bioindicator of marine pollution.
