Their ability to exhibit resistance to multiple drugs is a great de</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">al of threat to successes recorded in the management of UTIs cause</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">d by this pathogen. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been demonstrated to exhibit an</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">timicrobial activities but studies about their prospect against multi</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">-drug resistant </span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">S.</span></i> <i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">saprophyticus</span></i><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> are quite few. This study therefore investigated acti</span><span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">vities of LAB against the multi-drug resistant </span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">S</span></i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">. </span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">saprophyticus</span></i><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> recover</span></span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">ed fro</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">m urine samples of symptomatic women.
