Phenotypic Discrimination of Antibiotic Resistance Among P. Aeruginosa Collected from Burn Sample
Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is characterized by that it is associated with many morbidities anddeaths for people with immunodeficiency, as well as people who visit hospitals frequently and
patients with burns, especially severe ones, because the bacteria are Gram-negative, opportunistic,
and cause severe infections. The study included 45 samples that isolated the advanced aeruginosa
bacteria from moderately burned men and women, their ages ranged between 12 to 60 years. The
purpose of the study was to investigate the susceptibility of P. aeruginosa to resistance to some
antibiotics for the purpose of controlling the incidence of wound infection in patients with burns.
The phenotypic pattern of the bacteria under study shows that there is severe resistance to some
antibiotics, while the bacteria are unable to resist some other antibiotics.
