The majority of isolates were susceptible to commonly used antibiotics as tetracycline (90.4%) and chloramphenicol (93.9%). S. aureus was found to be highly resistant towards penicillin (95%) followed by cefoxitin (81.4%) and erythromycin (78.9%). Similarly, CNS was more resistant towards penici...
