The most frequent bacterial infections in humans are urinary tract infections (UTI). Asymptomatic bacteriuria has been proven to be a strong predictor of urinary tract infections and can thus be used to predict UTI. In this study, researchers evaluated at the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria among female and male LIMU University students. urine specimens were collected from 24 apparently healthy asymptomatic undergraduate female and male students of LIMU between ages of 17 and 26 who were randomly sampled ,There were statistically significant different in asymptomatic bacteriuria with gender (X2 , P=0.004) , Escherichia coli was the most common bacteria for asymptomatic bacteriuria in female university undergraduates in this study
