Five hundred and thirty strains of isolated from indoor patients were tested against three chemical groups comprising eight antibiotics. High degree of resistant strains ranging from 38.0% to 61.8% were seen against carbenicillin, piperacillin and gentamicin. However amikacin, ciprofloxacin, ceftazidime, netilmicin and norfloxacin showed comparatively better activity with resistant strains ranging from 7.8% to 22.8%. A notably higher rate of resistance was seen in urinary isolates.
