Özet
The hemolysin production, haemagglutinating activity (HA) with human 0 group erythrocytes and antibiotic susceptibility of 130 uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains were studied. 43% of the strains produced hemolysins and 39% showed haemagglutinating activity. In 12% of the haemagglutinating strains HA was inhibited by D-mannose. 45% of the hemolytic strains showed haemagglutinating activity. There was a significant relationship between hemolysin production and haemagglutination activity (p less than 0.05). 85% of the 130 Escherichia coli strains were found to be multiple resistant to antibiotics.
