The foot infection is the most consequence of diabetes mellitus, which greatly increases the risk of lower limb amputation. Effective antibiotic therapy is crucial in the treatment of these illnesses. The gram-negative bacterial samples from individuals with diabetic foot infections are evaluated in this study for their pattern of antibiotic susceptibility. Eighty-foot ulcer patients in total were collected, and 115-gram negative bacteria were taken, identified, and confirmed for antibiotic sensitivity using several drugs from various families. Finally, the phenotypic detection of extended spectrum beta lactamase, AMPC, and metallo-beta-lactamase MBL was performed. The results found different types of gram-negative bacteria isolated which are E. coli, Pseudomonas spp., Klebsiella spp., and Proteus spp. Also, the results show the different percentages of resistance of these bacterial isolates to different types of antibiotics and also their different percentage in their sensitivity to different antibiotics. This research revealed that 50% of diabetic foot infections were caused by several microbes. The most often found gramnegative-bacteria were E coli, Pseudomonas spp., Klebsiella spp., and Proteus spp. These bacteria were recovered from the taken cases. on the other hand, our study found a noted percentage of different isolated gram-negative bacteria for producing three types of betalactamase enzymes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
