This study was performed in İnönü University Turgut ÖZAL Medical Center to asses the resistance of Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas species to P-laktam antibiotics. From October 1995 to February 1997, 1126 Gram negative bacilli were isolated. 1022 (91) of isolates were Enterobacteriaceae members whereas 104 (9%) of them were Pseudomonas species. Sensitivities of pathogens P-laktam antibiotics were performed by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Following antibiotics were effective as: ceftazidime, imipenem, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone and cefoxitin for E. coli; imipenem and cefotaxime for Enterobacter species; imipenem, cefoxitin, ceftazidime, and ceftriaxone for Proteus species; imipenem, ceftazidime, cefotaxime, and ceftriaxone for Klebsiella species; imipenem and ceftazidime for Citrobacter species; and cefoperazone-sulbactam and imipenem for Pseudomonas species.
