ABSTRACT
Objective. Tetracycline is an antibiotic that is usually used for acute respiratory infections. Previous anti-antibiotic resistance studies showed that the use of tetracycline antibiotics in ARIs cases at the Tasikmalaya treatment center had experienced resistance above 50%. This study aims to identify bacteria that cause resistance to tetracycline antibiotics. Methods. The identification of bacteria was carried out through the method of determining the morphology of isolates, gram staining, biochemical testing. Results. The results of identification of bacteria in clinical isolates of patients showed that the bacteria genus Haemophilus, Staphylococcus, Corynebacterium, Streptococcus, and Bordetella were resistant to tetracycline antibiotics.
