Estimate of Antibiotics Sensitivity profiles of Some Selected Clinical Isolates from laboratories
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Microbiology Research - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
This study show the estimate of antibiotics sensitivity profiles of some selected clinical isolates from clinical laboratories. 10 antibiotics were bought from different pharmacy and their sensitivity profiles were tested against some clinical isolates obtained from microbiology section of medical laboratories, these include (E coli, P aeruginosa, P mirabilis, and S aureus).The results were recorded as sensitive/ resistant according to ATCC strains as control strains. S aureus was sensitive to 06(60%) and resistant to 04(40%) of 10 antibiotics used. E coli was sensitive to 07 (77.7%) and resistant to 02 (22.2%) of 9 antibiotics used. P aeruginosa and P mirabilis were both sensitive to 07(70%) and resistant to 03 (30%) of 10 antibiotics.
