ABSTRACT Normal vaginal flora contains a wide range of microorganisms. Bacterial vaginosis BV is the main reason for vaginal discharge. Many gram-positive and gram-negative rods i.e. E.coli, Klebsiella , Proteus, Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas spp. are major contributors to bacterial vaginosis. Aim: The present study was conducted to elucidate the... Continue Reading

ABSTRACT A total of 100 subjects were screened for  S. aureus strains, thirty (30) S. aureus isolates were obatained. The carriage of β-lactamase among the 30 isolates was determined by using starch iodine agar plate method. It was found that 19(63.3%) of the S. aureus strains were β-lactamase producing. Plasmid curing of the β-lactamase... Continue Reading
