Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterium responsible for severe nosocomial, enteric infections, life-threatening infections in immune compromised persons, and chronic infections in cystic fibrosis patients. The bacterium's virulence depends on a large number of cell-associated and extracellular factors. The virulence factors play an important pathological role in the colonization, the survival of the bacteria and the invasion of tissues. During the present study samples of soil and chicken feathers were collected from different shops of Bhopal and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated. Isolates were found to produce extracellular virulence factors viz protease. Isolates were found to be resistance against most of the antibiotic used to treat enteric infections. Bhopal is a city of vegetarian and non- vegetarian peoples. Presence of opportunistic pathogenic Pseudomonas aeruginosa in chicken and soil sample of chicken shop is an alarming condition for non- vegetarians.
