Bacteria were isolated from pyoderma in 62 dogs , and the isolates were subjected to identification.As a result, Staphylococcus aureus was detected in 20 cases(32%), S. intermedius in 19 cases(31%) , S. hominis in 5 cases(8%), S. epidermidis in 5 cases(8%), S. hyicus in 3 cases(4 .8%), S. simulans and S. saprophyticus in one case each(1.6%). These cases were classified by the degree of pyodermal infiltration . Eleven cases belonged to superficial pyoderma, 34 cases to outer stratum pyoderma , and 17 cases belonged to deep stratum pyoderma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
