Antagonistic Activity of Siderophore Producing Pseudomonas Aeruginosa against Aspergillus Spp. and Candida Albicans

摘要

ABSTRACT Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen and a leading causes of hospital-aquired pneumonia. In present study 50 Pseudomonas strains was isolated from patients and hospital environment and were identified Pseudomonas aeruginosa. All isolates were studied for siderophore production on different medium at different pH and iron concentration also they were studied for antifungal activity. The result indicated that all 50 isolates showed siderophore production on CAS agar plate..
