High Vaginal Swabs; Frequency and Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Gram Negative Rods Isolated From High Vaginal Swabs

Abstract: ABSTRACT… Normal vaginal flora contains a wide range of microorganisms. Hydrogen peroxide produced by Lactobacillus strains plays a vital role in maintaining the microenvironment of the vagina and in the inhibition of overgrowth of potentially pathogenic bacteria. Bacterial vaginosis BV is the main reason of vaginal discharge. Many gram positive and gram negative rods i.e. E.coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas spp. are major contributors in bacterial vaginosis. Aim: The present study was c… Show more
