Abstract

Introduction: Unlike many environmental bacteria, PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA has a remarkable capacity to cause disease in susceptible hosts. It has the ability to adapt and thrive in many ecological niches from water, soil to plants and animal tissues. Pseudomonas is one of the most frequent causes of nosocomial infections. This organism usually appears as an opportunistic pathogen which can invade patients with impair defenses, The purpose of this study was to compare the ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE and PLASMID profiles in PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA isolated from different sources. Method: In a prospective study, 70 PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA isolated from different sources (40 from burn patients of shahid Motahary Hospital, 7 from urinary tract infections of Labafi nejad hospital and 23 from vegetables and soil) were isolated and identified. Resistance to antibiotic of them were determined by Kirby-Bauer method. PLASMID profile's of isolated bacteria were done on a horizontal electrophoresis on agarose gel, detected and photographed. Results: Results indicated that the PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA isolated from burn infections were resistance to sulfametoxazol trimetoprim, cefalexin, ceftizoxim, (100%) and all PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA isolated from environmental sources (vegetables, soil) were sensitive to ciproflaxacin (100%). PLASMID profiles analysis showed that the PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA isolated from burn infections with 1-3 Kbp and from urinary tract infections with 1.5-3 kbp and from environment with 1.5-2.5 kbp molecular weight. Discussion: The results showed that the ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE and PLASMID profiles of different sources of PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA were varied. This showed bacterial response to different ecological niches (clinical and environmental life). In this study, all isolates were resistant to trimetoprim- sulfametoxazol, cefalexin and ceftizoxim, that indicated probably intrinsic resistance. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing of all isolates is crucial for the treatment of infection.
