In this study we have developed and applied an autochthonous vaccine prepared from Staphylococcus aureus isolated from milk samples taken from an experimental farm, as well as from the referent capsular strain Staphylococcus aureus. The vaccine was applied to experimental dairy cattle twice before calving in a dose of 5 mL. It consisted of inactivated bacterial S. aureus JR3 cells in a quantity of 1 x 10**10 cfu/mL and 5 mg SM capsule of the strain S. aureus 2286. This vaccination of dairy cows has resulted in a significant decrease of subclinical and clinical manifested mastitis in the treated group, when compared to the vaccinated group of experimental animals.
