| Abstract | ||
| Two- hundred clinical samples from burns infection with wounds, ear, nose, and upper respiratory tract were collected from the in- and out-patients of Al-Diwaniya Teaching Hospital and Al-Diwaniya paediatric and Cynecology Hospital from October 2010 to March 2011. One hundred and fifty samples gave positive teaching results of bacterial growth (75%) depending on the cultural and microscopic features, the biochemical tests and confirmative (Vitek) system to get a presice diagnosis . Thirty Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates (20%) were identified. The snsceptibility of this bacteria tow and antibiotics was tested. The bacteria showed a high resistance to nine antibiotics; while the sensitine to Ciprofloxacin was 46.66%. Fifteen isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were selected to study the plasmid profile based on their resistance to antibiotics profile . The results revealed that 10 isolates contained small and large plasmid bands. Also, these isolates showed various levels of resistance to antibiotics. However, 5isolates did not contain any plasmid bands and they showed amulti- resistance to antibiotics. | ||
