3.1. The identification of bacteria from chicken feces samples by MALDI-TOF MS
A total of 124 isolates were obtained and then 122 E. coli were coded and numbered as CFEC (Chicken Feces E.coli ), and these numbers were adhered to during the entire data evaluation process (Table 2). The other two isolates were chicken feces (CF), which were abbreviated with initials (Klebsiella oxytoca: CFKO; andEnterobacter kobei: CFEBC). CFKO and CFEBC isolates were not included in the phyloproteomic analysis.
