Abstract: Objective To investigate the pathogenic bacteria of acute bacterial conjunctivitis in Nanjing area and to provide reference for treatment. Methods Ninety-six eyes with acute bacterial conjunctivitis were enrolled in this study. Bacterial culture was performed on secretion specimens from conjunctival sac. Meanwhile, treatment with Gatifloxacin eye drops(4 times per day, 1 week) was carried out. After treatment, secretion specimens were re-cultivated. Results Secretion specimens of 86 eyes were successfully collected and cultivated two times. The positive rate was 81.25% in the first time. The percentages of gram positive bacteria (the top three: Staphylococcus epidermidis 52.08%, Staphylococcus aureus 7.29% and Staphylococcus saprophyticus 3.13%) and Gram negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae) in the bacteria were 65.63% and 15.63% respectively. No eye symptoms were observed after the treatment. For the second cultivation, 67 eyes(77.92%) turned to negative, 7 eyes(8.14%) were with Staphylococcus epidermidis and 4 eyes(4.65%) with Staphylococcus aureus. Conclusion The main pathogenic bacterium in acute bacterial conjunctivitis in Nanjing Area is Staphylococcus epidermidis, which should be paid attention in clinical treatment.
