The work was aimed at the observation of the incidence and course of environmental mastitis in the breeding with a mean number of 177 dairy cows free housed and milked in the milking parlour after introduction of anti-mastitis measures. During 6 months of application of preventive inhibitory methods the incidence of bacteriological positive dairy cows was reduced from 72.99 % to 6.74 %, and occurrence of dairy cows with clinically apparent form of mastitis decreased from 23.00 % to 0.56 %. The main etiological agents of intra-mammary infections were bacteria Streptococcus sp., Arcanobacterium pyogenes and coagulase–negative staphylococci. The overall efficacy of the preparation Synulox LC used for the treatment of intra-mammary infections ranged from 88.71 % to 96.15 %. Streptococcus sp. bacteria were 100 % sensitive against combination of amoxycilin with clavulanat. Arcanobacterium pyogenes bacteria showed the sensitivity of 93.6 %, whilst the sensitivity of coagulase-negative staphylococci bacteria was at 90.0 %.
