Studies on mastitis in cows and buffaloes with reference to mycotic infections of udder (with 6 tables).
Abstract: The following fungi were isolated from udders of cows and buffaloes Aspergillus (37.6%, 30%), A. niger (14.6%, 26.4%), A. flavus (11%, 17%), A. minor (11%, 13.4%), Candida albicans (40.2%, 52.8%), Candida tropicalis (19.5%, 24.5%), Candida vrusei (14.6%, 3.8%), Mucor spp. (33%, 28.6%), phizopus spp. (4.9%, 5.7%) in buffaloes and cows respectively. Penicllium. Clandosporium and Cephalosporium spp. Were at lower percentages. The incidence of mycotic infection was assessed in both apparently healthy quarters and in milk samples from clinical cases.
In addition to mycotic flora there was an associated contamination of udders with gram positive and gram negative orgaisms in 21 buffaloes and 13 cows. The isolated bacteria included: Escherichia coli (20.7%, 20.7%), Staph. Pyogenes (15.8, 18.9 ) , Beta - hemoytic Streptococci (11.0% , 17.0%) ,Pseudomonas pyocyanea (7.3% ,13.2% ) , Corynebacterium spp. (7.3%,3.7%) in buffaloes and cows respectively.
