Abstract : ABSTRACT Neonatal sepsis is characterized by bacteraemia and clinical symptoms caused by micro-organisms and their toxic products and is one of the four leading causes of neonatal mortality and morbidity in India, so the study iscarried out by taking 65 neonates blood samples which were proceed for blood culturing, it is carried out by inoculating on brain heart infu- sion broth and after 24 hrs transfer on Blood agar, MacConkey agar and Nutrient agar out of the total samples, 38 samples were found to be blood culture positive. Total six different isolates were obtained from which Klebsiella spp. 13 (34.2%) and Proteus spp. 10 (26.3) was most predominant organisms the other isolates were E.coli 8 (21%), Pseudomonas spp. 7 (18.4%), S.aureus 2 (5.2%) and Salmonella spp. 1 (2.6%). The results showed that a majority of the bacterial isolates in neonatal sepsis were found sensitive to imipenem, ciprofloxacin, meropenem and chloramphenicol and resistant to most of the commonly used antibiotics, eg. ampicillin and cephalexin.
