Abstract: Based on the colonial morphology,Gram’s staining,bacteria growth requirements,biochemical properties,and animal inoculation tests,a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain was isolated and identified from the tissues of the python (Python molurus) dead of pneumonia and acute bronchitis. The strain was tested with 24 different antibiotics to determine its tolerance against the antibiotics. The results showed that the strain was highly sensitive to florfenicol,tobramycine,chloromycine and ciprofloxacin,but tolerant to erythromycin,norfloxacin,ampicillin,cefradine,novomycin,selectrin,kanamycin,roxithromycin,amikacin,ofloxacin,amoxicillin,cidomycin,tetracycline,etc,showing its multi-tolerance to antibiotics.
