Abstract
The effect of sub-minimal inhibitory concentrations (sub-MICs) of three antibiotics (amikacin, ceftazidim and ciprofloxacin) on production ability of pyocyanin by Pseudomonas aeruginosa was studied .It was found that ciprofloxacin and ceftazidim were the most effective antibiotics followed by amikacin .The treatment with ciprofloxacin rendered the production of pyocyanin restricted to control growth. Ciftazidim completely suppressed the production on 0.5 and 0.25 of the MIC . On the other hand 91.66% of the isolates were suppressed on 0.125 of the MIC. Amikacin completely inhibited the production on 0.5 of the MIC and 75% of the isolates were suppressed on 0.125 of the MIC,but only 8.33% were suppressed on 0.125 of the MIC.
