ABSTRACT

The hygienic-sanitary and epidemic implication that carries the existence of pathogenic bacteria in the hospital environ- ment has great significance if we consider that the circulation of these microorganisms constitutes for potential danger susceptible to the health, effective the use of disinfectant and antiseptic for its appropriate control. This work was developed in order to establish state of susceptibility from the isolated microorganisms of nosocomial infections to the disinfectants and antiseptic in use, as well as to make recommendations for an unification of approaches in this thematic one. Baker’s test was carried out for the resistance study.
