Osteomyelitis is the infection and inflammation of the bone. Inappropriate use of antibiotics and multidrug resistance has raised the morbidity and mortality rate in chronic osteomyelitis. This study aims to determine the bacterial profile and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of chronic osteomyelitis with special mention to various resistant mechanisms. Samples from osteomyelitis cases were aerobically cultured and isolates from culture positives were identified by standard procedures. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was done by Kirby Bauer disk diffusion method.

The aim of the study was to speciate the CoNS isolates from various clinical samples and to study their antibiotic susceptibility pattern. Over a period of 18 months from December 2013 to May 2015, 142 Coagulase negative staphylococcal isolates grown in pure culture from various clinical samples were isolated and identified by standard procedure. Speciation of CoNS was done using novobiocin resistance test, urease activity, ornithine decarboxylase, pyrrolidonyl arylamidase and aerobic acid production from mannose.

Otitis media is an inflammation of the middle ear and mastoid cavity, with recurrent ear discharge through a perforated tympanic membrane. Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been particularly blamed for deep seated and progressive destruction of middle ear structures through its toxins and enzymes. The present study was done to determine the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from otitis media. Patients fulfilling clinical criteria were considered into the study. Two ear swabs were taken from each patient.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important cause of hospital acquired infection especially in patients admitted in critical care units such as intensive care units and burn care units. In recent times, it has emerged as a widespread Multi Drug Resistant (MDR) pathogen which requires antibiotic susceptibility testing on a regular as well as a periodic basis. This study was carried with an aim to determine the antimicrobial resistance pattern and prevalence of MDR P. aeruginosa infection among burns patients at a tertiary care center.

Escherichia coli (E. coli) is one of most common organisms responsible for health careassociated urinary tract infection (HAUTI). The aim of this study was to determine antibiotic susceptibility pattern of E. coli isolated from HAUT I and to study ciprofloxacin resistance caused by gyrA gene mutations among these isolates. Urine Samples were collected from patients with suspected HAUTI. E. coli identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of ciprofloxacin were done followed by detection of mutations in the gyrA gene by PCR-RFLP.

To isolate the bacterial pathogens causing asymptomatic bacteriuria in antenatal women,to study the drug resistance pattern and prevalence of MRSA and ESBL producers. Bacterial pathogens were isolated from 1000 urine samples collected from antenatal women following standard procedures. All the isolates were studied for antibiotic susceptibility pattern using modified Kirby bauer disc diffusion method. Resistant isolates were identified and studied for MRSA and ESBL by various methods. Out of 1000 urine samples culture positive were 118(11.8%). E.
