Abstract

 

The aim of this study was to isolate bacteria from urinary tract infected students of Olabisi Onabanjo University. Twenty-five (25) samples of urine were obtained from students during the period of June, 2019 to July, 2019. The participant age ranged between 18 to 26 years of age. Some of the urine samples were pale yellow, straw, and amber. The appearance of some of the sample were clear, cloudy and turbid. The pH of the samples ranged from 6.0 to 8.0. The microbial load of the urine samples ranged from 9.9 x 102 to 14.0 x104. The identified bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (n= 18), Klebsiella pneumonia (n=13), Proteus spp. (n=7), Escherichia coli (n=3) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n=2). Antimicrobial susceptibility profile of the isolates showed that most of isolate were susceptible to Gentamycin (81.3%). The findings that majority of the isolates were showed resistance to CAZ, CEX, CTR, Erythromycin, CXC, OFL, and Augmentin. It implies that these antibiotics cannot be used as empirical therapy for urinary tract infection particularly in the study area.
