Abstract: This study was carried out in Port Sudan teaching hospital from 8 November 2011 work to be initiated by the determination of level of aerobic bacterial contamination in the hospitals in port Sudan to 8November 2013. The aim of this study to isolate and identify different types of aerobic bacterial Hospital Acquired Infection, and determination of levels of antibiotic resistance of aerobic nosocomial isolate to commonly used antimicrobial agents. Two hundred samples collected from Urinary tract, Wound, Sputum, Ear, Throat, Blood, Personnel and different site of ward. The result showed that the isolated microorganism were as followed: Escherichia coli 33 (16.5%), S. aureus 21 (10.5%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa 20 (10%), Klebsiella pneumonia 17 (8.5%), Strepto Pyogene 9 (4.5%), Strepto faecalis 7 (3.5%), proteus mirabilis 4 (2%), proteus vulgaris 4 (2%), Morganella Morgenii 2 (1%), Klebsiella oxytoca 2 (1%), S. epidermidis 2 (1%), Salmonella Para A 1 (0.5) Citrbacter Ferundii 1 (0.5%), Serratia Spp 1 (0.5%). Also the result showed that the majority of bacterial strains tested, exhibited marked most multiple drug resistance against some broad -spectrum antimicrobials used eg: Ceftazidime, it was evident that of the Gentamicin, Ciprofloxacin, Cefixime and Ceftriaxone is choice drug for Hospital Acquired Infection. This study concluded the effective control, prevention and treatment of infection. Knowledge of emerging pathogens and resistance profile is essential for treatment against Hospital Acquired infections.

Abstract: Sodium tetraphenylborate (TPB) and cetylpyridinium bromide (CPB) were used as titrant for the conductometric determination of diphenhydramine hydrochloride (DPH) drug through ion association complex formation and then the conductance of the solution is measured as a function of the volume of titrant. The effect of the solvent, reagent concentration, temperature and molar combining ratio of the formed ion-associates were studied and evaluated. The suggested method was applied for the determination of diphenhydramine hydrochloride in pure form and pharmaceutical preparations. The described procedures allowed the determination of the studied drug in bi-distilled water in the range of 0.75–16 mg. Statistical treatment of the experimental results indicates that the method is precise and accurate. The accuracy of the method was indicated by excellent recovery and the precision supported by the low relative standard deviation <1%. The sensitivity of the proposed method was discussed and the results were compared with the potentiometric pharmacopoeial method. The proposed procedure was simple, precise and low cost and can be applied for the routine measurements of the cited drug.
