Abstract

This study ascertained the aerobic bacteria associated with cases of clinical and subclinical caprine mastitis. A total of 58 lactating West African dwarf does were used for this investigation. These lactating does had signs of clinical and sub-clinical mastitis. These samples were collected from Nsukka town, Nsukka abattoir, Orba Market, Obukpa Market and Obolllo - Afor market, all in Enugu State, Nigeria. Clinical mastitis was detected by gross signs of udder infection by physical examination of abnormal milk, whereas subclinical mastitis was recognized using California Mastitis test. This study showed that 39 (67.24%) of 58 goats were positive for mastitis on California Mastitis Test. Clinical and subclinical cases of caprine mastitis, Staphylococcus aureus was the predominant pathogen 32 (55.17%). 14 (24.13%) of the isolates were positive for Staphylococcus epidermidis , 6 (10.34%) for Streptoococcus agalactiae , 4 (6.89%) E.coli and 2 (3.44%) for Klebsiella pneumoniae . This work identified the bacterial species linked with caprine mastitis in Nsukka area of Enugu State. Keywords: Clinical mastitis, suclinical mastitis, aerobic bacteria, lactating, caprine

埃努古州Nsukka地区与山羊乳腺炎相关的需氧细菌病原体

本研究确定了与临床和亚临床山羊乳腺炎病例相关的需氧细菌。本研究共选用58头哺乳期西非矮羊。这些泌乳确实有临床和亚临床乳腺炎的迹象。这些样本采集自尼日利亚埃努古州的恩苏卡镇、恩苏卡屠宰场、奥尔巴市场、奥布帕市场和奥博洛-阿福市场。临床乳腺炎是通过异常乳汁的体格检查来检测乳房感染的大体体征，而亚临床乳腺炎是通过加利福尼亚乳腺炎试验来识别的。结果表明，58只山羊中39只(67.24%)在加州乳腺炎试验中呈阳性。绵羊乳腺炎临床及亚临床病例中，金黄色葡萄球菌为优势病原菌32例(占55.17%)。表皮葡萄球菌阳性14株(24.13%)，无乳链球菌阳性6株(10.34%)，大肠杆菌阳性4株(6.89%)，肺炎克雷伯菌阳性2株(3.44%)。这项工作确定了与埃努古州Nsukka地区山羊乳腺炎有关的细菌种类。关键词:临床乳腺炎，乳腺炎，需氧菌，泌乳，山羊
