Thirty five bacterial isolates were collected from urine and blood
samples of 20 patients, before and after endoscopy examination, in
new Surgical Hospitals, Zagazig University Hospital, Zagazig,
Egypt. Antibiotic susceptibility profile of purified bacteria
revealed four multi-resistant strains identified as S. aureus
Zag11, P. aeruginosa Zag60, E. coli Zag126 and S. epidermidis
Zag128. The four selected bacteria were subjected to some
disinfectants (glutaraldehyde, hydrogen peroxide, P3-oxonia and
Orthophthaladehyde) at different concentrations and different
exposure times. It was observed that 10 min were enough to inhibit
growth of tested pathogenic bacteria in case of (8% H2O2 &
0.55% orthophthaladehyde) while completely inhibition was recorded
after 15min in case of ( 2.2% glutaraldehyde, 70% ethanol and 0.45%
P3-oxonia). Sterile urinary tract endoscopy was artificially
contaminated with mixture (1:1:1:1:1:1) of six clinical pathogenic
bacterial strains pararil with the four tested bacterial strains.
Upon exposing the contaminated endoscope to different chemical
disinfectants; 8% hydrogen peroxide and 0.55% Orthophthalaldehyde
inhibited after 30 min exposure while 2.
