The aim of this study was to isolate and identify environmental bacteria from various soils in areas where human activities influence the soil microbiota and might exert a strong positive pressure to resistance development and spreading. Our results revealed that environmental bacteria with high antibiotic resistant level. All the gram positive bacterial isolates showed resistant against Penicillin G and Ampicillin. Out of 27 gram negative bacterial isolates, 23 organisms showed ESBL positive based on phenotypic characterization. Linking the environmental strains with clinic ones, promoted by human activities, might be a vital consideration. Our results indicate that, there is a need to embrace coordinated multi-locational approaches and interrelationships to track the emergence of resistance in different niches in soil and water versus the hospital environment.
