Isolation and identification of isolated bacteria based on biochemical, morphological and molecular biology techniques (PCR using 16S rRNA primer). In this experiment, 27bacteria was isolated and identified; it included 8 Escherichia coli, 7 Staphylococcus spp., 5 Pseudomonas spp., 4 klebsiella spp. and 3 Proteus spp. Isolates was confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Also these bacteria tested for susceptibility to commonly used antibiotics and found that mainly meropenem , and cephoperazone +sulbactam were the most effective antibiotics against bacteria. On studying the physiology and growth bactericidal response of these bacteria to different concentration of some selected heavy metal salts (e.g. Copper & Zinc) solutions with different concentrations (10 oM{u2013} 10⁷ oM), Revealed that the most effective concentration of heavy metals salt solutions CuSO4 & ZnSO4 are (10⁵ oM). These solutions were tested on the tissue of patients to make sure that these concentrations were nontoxic. After detection of the nontoxic& most inhibitory concentration to different pathogenic bacteria. These obtained results can be applied for treatment of diabetic feet's pathogenic bacteria as a lotion UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
