RESUMO
Foi estudada a flora bacteriana em úlceras leishmanióticas, destacando-se o encontro das espécies aeróbicas Staphylococus aureus e Pseudomonas aeruginosa. O estudo da sensibilidade destas espécies a antibióticos mostrou sensibilidade à vancomicina, à amicacina e ao cloranfenicol em 100 por cento dos isolados testados de Staphylococus aureus e à amicacina, à gentamicina e à tobramicina em 100 por cento dos isolados testados de Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Estas espécies foram, em geral, resistentes às penicilinas e à tetraciclina.
ABSTRACT
The bacterial flora from leishmanial ulcers was studied. The aerobic species Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were found most frequently. Evaluation of the sensitivity of these species to antibiotics showed that 100 percent of these isolates of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to vancomycin, amikacin and chloramphenicol, while 100 percent of the isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were sensitive to amikacin, gentamicin and tobramycin. These species were generally resistant to penicillins and tetracycline.
