Patterns of mastitic pathogens and antibiotic susceptibility of bovine clinical mastitis
1988
Kim, D. (Seoul National Univ., Suwon (Korea R.). Coll. of Veterinary Medicine)
A total of 593 mastitic pathogens was isolated from the clinical mastitic milk of dairy cattle in Kyonggi area from March 1984 to February 1988. The mastitic pathogens were further studied bacteriologically and examined for susceptibility patterns to 10 antibiotics. 173 pathogens were isolated in the first year of studies, 205 pathogens in the second year, 122 pathogens in the third year and 93 pathogens in the last year. The pathogens isolated from clinical mastitis were more in summer than other seasons. Staphylococcus spp (50%) and Streptococcus spp (18%) were the main pathogens in the first year of studies but coliforms (15%) and other bacteria (40%) were the main pathogens in the last year of studies. Coliform mastitis occurred only in summer and autumn. Antibiotic susceptibility patterns of the same genuses from clinical mastitis infections in different herds and in different years varied greatly. Therefore, treatment should be selected on the basis of susceptibility test results
