<span style="font-family:Verdana;">Object: </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">To isolate and identify the microorganisms from the burn patients admitted to the National Institute of Burn and Plastic Surgery Unit in Tertiary Medical College Hospital, Bangladesh. A total number of fifty wound surface swab samples of first and second-degree burn patients were collected and the microbial analysis as well </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">as </span><span style="font-family:Verdana;">the study of antibacterial susceptibility was conducted.

The total viable count TVC-11651 CFU/plate was found and the highest amount in the second-degree burn patients.
