2026-05-08 Antimicrobial Resistance in Escherichia coli Isolated from Surface and Groundwater Sources in Gampaha District, Sri Lanka: A One Health Perspective doi:10.57760/sciencedb.36317 en This dataset contains antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of Escherichia coli isolates recovered from surface water (n=93 isolates; 52 sites) and ground water (n=84 isolates; 161 samples) in Gampaha District, Sri Lanka, collected between November 2023 and November 2024. Susceptibility was tested against ten antibiotics using the Kirby–Bauer disc diffusion method in accordance with CLSI M100 guidelines (34th edition). Data include resistance classifications for ampicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, gentamicin, tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, cefotaxime, ceftazidime, chloramphenicol, and ertapenem, along with phenotypic detection results for ESBL and AmpC beta-lactamase production. Water source type, sampling site, water body category, and E. coli colony counts (CFU/100 ml) are also recorded. The dataset supports environmental antimicrobial resistance surveillance and One Health research in South Asia. antimicrobial resistance; Escherichia coli; surface water; groundwater; ESBL; One Health; Sri Lanka Rangama Jinadasa Dr. C Nadisha Badanasinghe .
