“…It is much higher than findings of Feyissa (2000) and Mekibib et al (2013), where it was 5.1 and 2.32% only. Similarly, Andrade et al (2005) found cervical inflammation in 0.6% cases only. This variation could possibly be due to reason that only abandoned infertile cows were studied.…”
The present study was carried out with an objective of examining the reproductive status of abandoned cows kept in 18 goshalas of Himachal Pradesh. Overall 321 abandoned cows were diagnosed with 402 reproductive ailments (few of them with multifactor etiology). Amongst the genital tract ailments in abandoned cows, a very high incidence, i.e. 50%, of reproductive disorders was associated with injuries/ technical errors (endometritis, cervical disorders, affections of fallopian tubes and adnexa) of which only 12.75% were treatable. However, 38.80% incidence of managemental/ functional problems (true anestrus and silent estrus) was found and a higher post treatment recovery rate was recorded. This can be attributed to the faulty AI technique, inefficient inseminators or inadequate training on AI. Overall, 22.86% abandoned cows having various reproductive ailments conceived following different therapeutic regimes.

“…These findings corroborate those presented in this study, which demonstrate that Staphylococcus aureus was the main agent isolated (41.65%), followed by enterobacteria (37.50%). Andrade et al (2005) studied 2823 breeding females of the Holstein and Gir breeds in Brazil and reported that the main pathogens found in the herd were Gram-positive cocci (41.3%) and Gram-negative rods (52.6%), with Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli being the main pathogens found in uterine infections. In vitro tests demonstrated that these microorganisms showed a higher susceptibility to chloramphenicol, gentamicin, and neomycin.…”

“…The susceptibility of bacteria was 100% to sulfazotrim, 77.7% to chloramphenicol, and 66.6% to vancomycin, the other antibiotics did not have significant results (Table 3). According to Andrade et al (2005), the percentage of microorganisms' resistant to different drugs is a complicating factor for prophylactic and therapeutic regimens for the control of ISSN 2166-0379 2020 uterine infections and consequently intra-mammary infections. This resistance is probably associated with the indiscriminate and incorrect use of antibiotics, often without determination of the susceptibility of the microorganisms to the drugs (Andrade et al, 2005), with the acquisition of antimicrobial resistance, and with the biofilm-forming ability of the bacteria (Taponen and Pyörä lä , 2009).…”

Mastitis is a disease in dairy cattle that damage the milk chain. It was aimed identify the major causative agents of bovine mastitis in small dairy farms by producing an antibiogram and analysis of milk quality. Methods: During the summer, 280 dairy cows were examined on a farm located in Camapuã, MS, Brazil. The farm had a concrete milking facility and used cleaning and disinfection of the udder before and after milking to control mastitis. For assess microbial resistance, two samples of milk per cow were collected biweekly between January and March. The antibiotics sulfazotrim (25 μg), penicillin (10 μg), streptomycin (10 μg), vancomycin (30 μg), chloramphenicol (30 μg), tetracycline (30 μg), amoxicillin (10 μg), and gentamycin (10 μg) were used. Results: A total of 17.14% of the animals were positive for the California Mastitis Test (CMT). The identification of the pathogens revealed that Staphylococcus aureus accounted for 41.65% of the isolated organisms and Escherichia coli for 37.5%. Our results showed only sulfazotrim and chloramphenicol had effective results for both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. The isolated strains presented high resistance to the other tested antibiotics. Conclusions: sulfazotrim (25 μg) and chloramphenicol (30 μg) can be used to disinfect the udder of dairy cows.
Piometra é uma doença que afeta o útero de fêmeas causando infecção e inflamação com acúmulo de grande quantidade de exsudato purulento ou mucopurulento. Ocorre em todas as espécies domésticas, sendo mais comum em cadelas e vacas. Sua importância em cada espécie está relacionada ao número de casos e sua severidade, dentro de suas particularidades. O objetivo com esta revisão foi reunir estudos referentes à piometra em fêmeas domésticas, incluindo a epidemiologia, sinais clínicos, diagnóstico e tratamento nas principais espécies acometidas.
