The present study was carried out to isolate the organisms present in the skin of female students at the age group of 18-23 from STET Women' College, Sundarakkottai, Mannargudi, Thiruvarur (Dt), Tamilnadu. India. The samples were streak plated onto different agar medium. The colonies thus formed on the plates were identified using Motility, Gram' staining and Biochemical tests and confirmed as E. coli, B. subtilis, S. aureus, S. epidermidis and M.luteus by Bergey' Manual of Determinative Bacteriology. Totally 46 isolates of bacteria were obtained from 30 skin swab samples.
The isolated bacterial pathogens were maintained as pure culture for further studies. Antiseptic and Herbal soaps such as Dettol, Lifebuoy, Margo, and Chandrika were collected from the Cholan super market, Mannargudi, Thiruvarur (Dt), Tamilnadu, India. Isolated organisms were subjected to sensitivity test using 4 different soaps viz Dettol, Lifebuoy, Margo and Chandrika. The antiseptic soap, Dettol showed better response against the bacterial species when compared to others. Dettol was followed by Margo, Chandrika, and Lifebuoy in controlling all the organisms.Totally 46 isolates of bacteria were obtained from 30 skin swab samples.
