- W1601829669 abstract "Background: Recently there has been a growing concern that the indiscriminate use of antimicrobial agents in the household, food industry and in hospitals may contribute to the emergence of bacteria resistant to antibiotics.Aim of the work: To detect any possible link between the susceptibility profiles of different clinical and environmental isolates to biocides and antibiotics in an Egyptian hospital.Methods: 66 different microbial isolates were isolated from different clinical specimens and different environmental samples obtained from a University Hospital in Alexandria. These isolates were screened for their susceptibility to 22 broad spectrum antibiotics using disc agar diffusion technique. Also the susceptibility of the isolates to 6 commonly used biocides was screened through MIC determination by agar dilution technique. Correlations between the obtained data were made through Spearman’s correlation using SPSS® Statistical program.Results: 62% of the isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR); and 11% were extremely drug resistant (XDR). On the other hand, 34% of the tested isolates were multi-disinfectant reduced susceptibility (MDRS) isolates. The statistical analysis of the obtained data revealed a moderate positive correlation between antibiotic resistance and biocide tolerance (0.376≥Ï≥0.278, p<0.05). In addition, strong significant correlations (p<0.01) were also found between reduced susceptibilities to multiple biocides such as benzalkonium chloride (BK), cetrimide (CET), chlorhexidine (CHX), povidone-iodine (PVPI) and Dettol®.Conclusion: Cross-resistance between biocides and antibiotics can aggravate the existing problem of antibiotic resistance in hospitals." @default.
