Urinary tract infections are bacterial infections affecting parts of urinary tract. The common symptoms of urinary tract infection are urgency and frequency of micturition, with associated discomfort or pain. The common condition is cystitis, due to infection of the bladder with an uropathogenic bacterium, which most frequently is Escherichia coli, but sometimes Staphylococcus saprophyticus or especially in hospital-acquired infections, Klebsiella species, Proteus mirabilis, other coliforms, Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Enterococcus faecalis. Chromogenic UTI Agar is formulated on basis of work carried out by Pezzlo Wilkie et al, Friedman et al, Murray et al, Soriano and Ponte and Merlino et al.
