The aim of this study is to figure out the profile of antibiotic resistance in E. coli, sourced from raw milk, obtained from five districts in East Java Province, Indonesia. A total of 250 samples were tested using the Kirby-Bauer Test method. The result revealed that the highest percentage of antibiotic resistance was Tetracycline (17.05%), followed by Streptomycin (14.2%), Trimethoprim (9.66%), Chloramphenicol (7.95%) and Aztreonam (1.7%). A total of 16 E. coli isolates (9.1%) were detected as MDR, and 3 E. coli isolates (1.7%) were suspected as presumptive ESBL. Thus, threat of multidrug resistance E. coli possibly sourced from the milk
