Totally five species of bacteria were isolated and identified based on colony morphology, Gram staining and biochemical studies. The identified bacteria namely <em>Klebsiella pneumoniae</em>, <em>Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli</em>,<em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> and <em>Serratiamarcensis spp. </em>All the organisms were tested against antibiotic sensitivity test, the three commercially available common antibiotic discs like Ciproflaxacin, Penicillin G and Streptomycin were used all the organisms were sensitive. Thus, it promotes the treatment against the original pathogen and reduces the consumption of wide spectrum of antibiotic which in turn reduces the consumption of wide spectrum of antibiotic which in turn reduces a wide spectrum of side effects and thus save the humans from the lower extremity amputations in time.</p>}, number={4}, journal={International Journal of Current Pharmaceutical Research}, author={V., Tamizhazhagan and K., Ashok and S., Rajesh}, year={2014}, month={Oct.}, pages={55–57} }
