Popis:	Forty two consecutive clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were screened for the presence of reserpine inhibited multidrug (MDR) efflux pump, utilizing ciprofloxacin ofloxacin and/or pefloxacin as substrates, by determining the minimum inhibitory concentration in the presence and absence of 100 mg/L reserpine. The result showed that 50% of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates possessed reserpine inhibited MDR efflux pump. MDR efflux pump requiring ofloxacin (40.48%) were significantly (p
