| description | Antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) strains have become a global health
threat. This study aimed to determine the antibiotic susceptibility
pattern of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated
from wells in Ondo town, Southwest Nigeria. Twenty-eight well water
samples were analyzed for the presence of K. pneumoniae and P.
aeruginosa by standard pour plate technique. The bacterial isolates
were tested against eight commonly use antibiotics using Kirby Bauer
disc diffusion method. The percentage occurrence of K. pneumoniae and
P. aeruginosa in the well water samples were 17.86% and 21.43%,
respectively. Two multi-drug resistant strains of K. pneumoniae were
isolated, which were resistant to at least three classes of
antibiotics. Fifty percent of the P. aeruginosa isolates were resistant
to caftazidime, cefuroxime, nitrofurantoin, and ampicillin. None of the
isolates was fully susceptible to cefuroxime, but have all showed
resistance to β-lactam (ceftazidime, cefuroxime augmentin, and
ampicillin) antibiotics. Cefuroxime may not be effective an effective
drug in the treatment of K. pneumoniae and P. aeruginosa implicated
infections in these communities in Ondo. Also, the over-use of
antibiotics should be discouraged in order to curtail the menace of
antibiotic resistance. |
