Abstract

Globally, human health is under threat due to the presence of diseases caused by microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses. Bacteria are found on almost all surfaces with which people come into contact and therefore pose a threat to human health.

Antimicrobial resistance is a major health concern as these microorganisms can cause untreatable diseases. I tested the surfaces found in three buildings on the campus of the American University of Nigeria in Yola, Adamawa State, for the presence of harmful bacteria.

Swabs collected were streaked on lysogeny broth agar to determine if bacteria were present. Selective and differential media were used to identify the type of bacteria found. Also, the samples were subjected to an antimicrobial susceptibility test using replica plating.

The result showed the surfaces were contaminated with Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, and Enterococcus faecalis, with E. coli and E. aerogenes being resistant to ampicillin.

This study showed that AUN is not only contaminated with pathogens, but also with bacteria resistant to ampicillin. The institution should provide hand sanitizers around campus and also create awareness vii programs on the importance of hand washing.

Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

Human health is under serious threat globally by microorganisms, especially viral and bacterial diseases. Bacteria and viruses can be found on surfaces and could potentially cause harm. Infectious diseases are emerging at an alarming rate and have contributed to a good number of deaths globally.

Although over the past decade the mortality rates of these diseases have declined, the impact these diseases have on the world remains substantial.

Infectious diseases are the second leading cause of death worldwide, with 57 million deaths occurring each year, as reported by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (Fauci, Touchette, & Folkers, 2005).

There are increasing global concerns about certain issues such as antibiotic-resistant bacteria, Zika virus, HIV/AIDS, Ebola virus, and SARS. These diseases have a high mortality rate and have been identified by the World Health Organization as diseases likely to cause epidemics (WHO, 2015).

In Africa, emerging diseases are a public health concern not only due to their high mortality rate, but also due to the fact that developing countries lack good health facilities.
