       Current study obtained (75) isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa collected from different cases included : 28 isolates from otitis media, 23 isolates from burn infections, 10 isolates from wound infections, 8 isolates from urinary tract infections and 6 isolates from blood, during the period between 1/9/2014 to 1/11/2014        The result revealed that the tox A gene was present in 54 isolates (72%) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The gel electrophoresis showed that the molecular weight of tox A gene was 352 bp. The result shows 17 isolates (60.71%) from otitis media has tox A gene, 18 isolates (78.26%) from burn followed by 8 isolate (80%) from wound infection and 5 isolates (62.5%) from urinary tract infection , finally 6 isolates (100%) from blood have this gene.

Effective use of antimicrobial agents for treatment/management of infectious diseases is decreasing due to emergency of multi-drug and cross resistant strains of pathogenic microbes. Medicinal plants are now increasingly used alone or as an adjunct in the management of infectious diseases as a result of their claimed efficacy and safety. This research focused on evaluating the antimicrobial potential of ethanol fruit peel extract of Mangifera indica against isolated Urinary tract infection (UTI) pathogens. Urinary tract infection (UTI) bacterial strains (staphylococcus aureus, escherichia coli and pseudomonas aeruginosa) were isolated from midstream urine of infected students using standard procedures after which the isolated Urinary tract infection pathogens were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility test by agar-well diffusion method (Cup plate method) and the mean diameter of growth inhibition zones (n=3) of the extract at different concentrations were compared against the controls (sterile water and ciprofloxacin). Ethanol fruit peel extract of Mangifera indica significantly and dose dependently inhibit the growth of all the isolated Urinary tract infection pathogens with E.coli exhibiting the highest inhibition zone ranging from 16.83 to 28.23 mm, this was followed by pseudomonas aeruginosa with inhibition zone of 24.33 mm and staphylococcus aureus least susceptible with 22.63 diameter of zone inhibition. Ethanol fruit peel extract of Mangifera indica demonstrated a dose dependent antimicrobial activity with more pronounced effect exhibited by E. coli suggesting that the extract is more effective against gram negative bacteria despite their permeability barrier, thus suggesting Mangifera indica fruit peel as a potential candidate for the management of bacterial infections especially those caused by gram negative organisms.
