Changes of the susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria to the local therapeutic agent by using nitrogen laser

الملخص EN

This study involves the investigation of the effect of nitrogen laser with 337.

1 nm wavelength on the sensitivity of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria by using local therapeutic due to burns.

Thirty six isolate of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria were isolated from 25 patients suffering from sever burns, each isolate of bacteria was irradiated with nitrogen laser at (5, 10, 15 and 30) pulses/second repetition rates for 1, 5, 10, 20 and 30 minutes for each repetition rate.

The effects of nitrogen laser on the local therapeutics sensitivity of bacteria were obtained using Kirby Baur method.

Changes in the sensitivity of bacteria to local therapeutics (Tetracyclin, Chloramphenicol, Flumizin and Fucidin) occur at high repetition rate(30 pulses/second) and for long exposure times (10, 20 and 30 minutes) with (2 x 10-3 J / cm2) fluence.
