Abstract | ||
The present research aimed to study various types of bacterial species that are considered as a majority cause of contamination to person with bullet injury. One hundred-fifty-patient-injured aged from 20 to< 50 from both male and female .Swabs were taken from wound infection and cultivated on different types of bacteriological media in Microbiology department .Baiker-Al-hakium- teaching Hospital(the old name AL-Nooor ), Al-yarmok teaching Hospital, Al-Karkh teaching Hospital .Patient have no bacterial species in injured bullet .In time =zero ,in time(1) =after 4-7 days from separation process of bullet bacterial culture lead to isolate either two bacterial spp from one patient or only one spp . The results reveals isolation of . Pseudomonas aeruginosa in high rate, from all eighty patients, staphylococcus aureus from thirty patients, Escherichia coli from twelve patients, Proteus spp .from ten patients and Klebsiella spp from eighteen patients. The present study show that the bullet or its particles have ability to penetrate the tissue and remains and the contamination resulted was not from the bullet only but also due to bullet particle like (jacketed) . Isolation of S. aureus together with Pseudomonas auroginosia (20 cases) E.coli together with Klebsiella (15 cases) and E-coli together with P.aeruginosa (5 cases). Anti-microbial susceptibility test for both Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-Negative bacteria with more emphasis to the third generation Cephalosporines like Cefotaxime(claforan)and Cefxtizoxime for G +ve bacteria and Ceftazidime(fortum) and ,Cefoperazone for G-ve bacteria was done and the most effective antimicrobial agents wereErythromycin,Ampicillin,Penicillin,Gentamycin,Chloramphenicol,Amoxcycillin,cephalexin,Rifampicin,Tetracycline,Neomycin. | ||
