1.3 Antibiotic Sensitivity
Antibiotic sensitivity is a term used to describe the susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics. Antibiotic sensitivity testing (AST) is usually carried out to determine which antibiotic will be most successful in treating a bacterial infection in vivo. Testing for antibiotic sensitivity is often done by the Kirby-Bauer method while other methods include the Stokes method, E-test (also based on antibiotic diffusion) and Agar and Broth dilution methods (for Minimum Inhibitory Concentration determination). Muller Hinton agar is most frequently used in this antibiotic susceptibility test. Our study was aimed at the isolation, identification and antibiotic sensitivity testing of URINARY TRACT INFECTION (UTI) causing bacteria
1.4 AIM
To isolate, identify and check antibiotic sensitivity of bacteria implicated in URINARY TRACT INFECTION (UTI)s.
1.5 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY• To isolate bacteria from the urinary tract of women of child-bearing age using vaginal swab.
• To identify the isolated bacteria.
• To determine the antibiotic sensitivity of bacteria isolated.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]Normal vaginal flora contains a wide range of microorganisms. Bacterial vaginosis BV is the main reason of vaginal discharge. Many gram positive and gram negative rods i.e. E.coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas spp. are major contributors in bacterial vaginosis. Aim: The present study was conducted to elucidate the frequency of various bacteria in high vaginal swabs and sensitivity pattern of bacteria to antibiotics that are currently used Material and Methods used are a t ...
