A cross sectional descriptive study conducted in Benghazi centre of infectious diseases and immunity (BCIDI) during winter and spring from December 2013 to April 2014. Samples were collected by using the settled plate techniques for the enumeration of bacterial isolates. The air specimens were collected three times; in the morning between the hours of 9 am and 10 am, in the afternoon between 2 noon and 3 pm and in the evening between the hours of 7 pm and 8pm for two seasons. Used of different disinfectants in routine cleaning surfaces on isolated bacteria. From the total microbial population of different sites, the highest bacterial population was recorded in the morning as compared to the afternoon and evening. 18 genera of bacteria were isolated, gram positive bacteria accounting (87%) was significantly higher than of gram negative bacteria (13%). Gram negative bacteria were found in spring season only. Strains representative of Staphylococcus sp. were the most prevalent (30.79%) accounting of the isolated bacteria. The susceptibility pattern of all isolates revealed sensitivity to all tested antibiotics. Different susceptibility of gram positive and negative bacteria towards different concentrations of used disinfectants.
