Postphagocytic bactericidal activity of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) neutrophils against mastitis causing bacteria

Abstract: The postphagocytic bactericidal activity (PPBA)of buffalo neutrophils for mastitis causing bacteria, namely, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae and Escherichia coli, was studied. The percent phagocytosis (PP) and the PPBA were optimum a t 45 and 60 min, respectively, for all three bacteria.The PP was highest for Staph. aureus (88%) followed by E. coli (86%) and Strep. agalactiae (81%). The bacterial resistance toneutrophil bactericidal activity was evident by the absence of PPBA in varying degree,… Show more

“…A temperatura foi controlada a 4 o C mantendo-se um termômetro digital cujo sensor foi fixado dentro de uma amostra controle, além de outro termômetro de mínima e de máxima dentro do isopor. A temperatura da amostra foi igualmente controlada durante todo o processamento, além de ter sido usado material exclusivamente plástico para impedir o comprometimento principalmente das células da série dos macrófagos (Jensen e Eberhart, 1981;Silva et al, 1996).…”

“…and among the etiologies; bacteria are playing a major role in causing mastitis [4,5]. It is a complex disease, numerous causative agents and the varied management and environmental practices that influence the severity of the disease [6]. However, almost any microbe can opportunistically invade udder tissue and can lead to mastitis.…”
