Abstract

A total of 25 isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa out of 80 samples isolated from various clinical sources (burns, wounds, urinary tract infections (UTIs),sputum and otitis media), From patients were attending to Hilla Teaching Hospital.

Maximum isolates were obtained fromburn samples9(36%),wound and otitis media samples5(20%), UTIsandsputum3(12%).

Some virulence factors of all isolates were studied, and the results showed that all bacterial isolates (100%) having bacteriocin, extracellular protease, lipase and urease enzyme, most the isolates (86.8%) being able to produce hemolysin, but some isolates (13.2%) producing the siderophores.
