Abstract
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections and Gram negative bacteria are among the most prevalent bacteria detected from UTI patients. E. coli is the most common organism causing both community as well as hospital acquired UTI. The high incidence of UTIs in the general population, the potential for complications, and the associated costs of treatments emphasize the importance of appropriate antibiotic therapy. The resistance rates of uropathogenic E. coli to various antibiotics have been reported as beta-lactams, trimoxazole, quinolones, gentamicin, amikacin, cefuroxime, nalidixic acid
