Popis: This study is based on urine culture and sensitivity of the samples collected from the suspected cases of urinary tract infection visiting the outdoor of MGM Medical College and Hospital, Jamshedpur. The isolates are subjected to biochemical identication and susceptibility testing and the result is correlated with microscopic ndings. This data can be used to determine the prevalence of Urinary Tract Infection and study the Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern of the isolated bacteria. In this study 309 urine samples were collected over a period of 6 months and culture sensitivity was performed using conventional methods. 44.6% of the urine samples showed growth. The predominant isolate was Escherichia coli followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae.
