Abstract : The susceptibility of five isolates of Staphylococcus aureus which isolated from wound infections were determind against ciprofloxacin & Fusidic acid .The findings have shown that ciprofloxacin & Fusidic acid were highly effective on S. aureus isolates when the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was very low . Then the effect of salicylic acid on the MICs for these antibiotic was studied . Salicylate was shown to increase the resistance among S.aureus isolated when the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was very low . Then the affect of salicylic of acid on the MICs for these antibiotics was studied . Salicylate was shown to increases the resistance among S.aureus isolates to Fusidic acid & Ciprofioxacin .
