Proteus: This bacterium is also a good bacterium which lives in our intestinal tract and part of our healthy body system.

Enterococcus: Enterococcus normally could be found on human and animal feces, and are common cause of urinary tract infection and other infection such as meningitis and bacteraemia (blood stream infection)

Pseudomonas: Pseudomonas normally lives in soil and also in the marsh land. They are prone to antibiotic as well. Pseudomonas normally infects the patient who uses indwelling catheters and causes sepsis and urinary tract infection.
