Abstract
Determination of Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern of Clinical Isolates of Salmonella Typhi and Escherichia coli
Highlights
Antimicrobial resistant among microorganism such as bacteria, virus, parasites and other disease-causing organisms is one of the serious threats to the management of infectious disease globally [1]
The increase in antibiotic resistance has been attributed to a combination of microbial characteristics, the selective pressure of antibiotic use and social and technical changes that enhance the transmission of resistant organisms
The aim of the study is to determine the antibiotic sensitivity pattern of clinical isolate of salmonella typhi and Escherichia coli from stool sample of patients attending Muhammad Abdullahi waste Specialist Hospital, Kano State
Summary
Antimicrobial resistant among microorganism such as bacteria, virus, parasites and other disease-causing organisms is one of the serious threats to the management of infectious disease globally [1]. The increase in antibiotic resistance has been attributed to a combination of microbial characteristics, the selective pressure of antibiotic use and social and technical changes that enhance the transmission of resistant organisms. Many procedures use and misuse of antibiotics in man have resulted in antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Antimicrobial resistance is a natural biological phenomenon which often enhanced as a consequence of infectious agents’ adaptation to exposure to antimicrobial agents used in human or Agriculture and the widespread use of disinfectant at the farm and the household levels [3]. Salmonella typhi is the etiological agent of typhoid fever; it is gram negative bacteria belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae.
