The objective of this study was to identify the most common pathogens causing subclinical mastitis in the northwest State of Paraná, Brazil and establish their antimicrobial susceptibility profiles. A total of 507 foremilk samples were collected in 13 municipalities. Bacteria were identified and their profile of antimicrobial susceptibility were tested. The distribution of positive samples was not homogeneous among the cities. Streptococci were the most frequently genus observed (61%), followed by staphylococci (28%) and other genera (11%). Among streptococci and staphylococci, Streptococcus uberis and Staphylococcus aureus were the most frequently identified species, respectively. Overall, 40% of the isolates showed resistance to at least one of the antibiotics used in this study. A high proportion of cefoperazone resistant Staphylococcus spp. and bacitracin resistant Streptococcus were observed. The isolated microorganisms showed little resistance to enrofloxaxin. The results obtained show the importance of isolating the microorganism causing mastitis and testing its resistance to antibiotics before performing the treatment of the disease.","PeriodicalId":23550,"journal":{"name":"Veterinaria italiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138462907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These cheeses are usually manufactured, according to traditional methods, in small rudimental facilities adjacent to the farm where the achievement of satisfactory hygienic standards can be challenging. However, the lack of systematic data about farm management and the cheese manufacturing processes hampers the conduction of specific risk assessment studies. In order to fill the knowledge gaps, we collected relevant data, through a questionnaire - based survey, from 125 small ruminants' farmhouse dairies spread in Lazio. Results showed that 1.1% of registered farms process their own milk for the production of raw milk cheeses. Hand milking is still applied in almost half of them and most products are subject to a short ‑ to ‑ medium ripening period which might not be sufficient to reduce eventual pathogen load. Products are mainly sold directly to consumers on the farm premises. Our results suggest the need to support these artisan cheese producers in order to improve the production standards without altering the traditional cheesemaking practices. The reported data are also useful for specific risk assessment studies.","PeriodicalId":23550,"journal":{"name":"Veterinaria italiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140946168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study describes bovine papillomavirus infection in cattle on clinco-pathological and molecular bases and compares the identified strains with the previously characterized papillomavirus isolates in Egypt either of bovine or equine origin. Out of sixty examined cattle, skin lesions were collected from eleven clinically diseased cattle exhibiting typical papillomatosis clinical signs and subjected to histopathological and molecular identification. Histological sections showed well-developed papillary projections of squamous epithelium associated with fibrovascular stroma. Type 1 bovine papillomavirus (BPV-1) was identified in the cutaneous lesions based on the results of L1 gene-based PCR using degenerated primer followed by DNA sequencing. Comparative sequence and evolutionary analysis revealed that papilloma sequences (OP777901, OP777902, OP777903) obtained in the current study are clustered along with MW018705.1, MG547343.1isolated from cattle in Egypt in 2017/2018 and MT502095.1.1, and MT502105.1 isolated from equine in Egypt in 2019.

Initially, four bacteriophages €P54, €P59, €P66, and €P72 were isolated from sewage water using Salmonella Enteritidis as a target strain. €P54 and €P66 were found to be Myoviruses while €P59 and €P72 belonged to the Siphoviridae family. A phage cocktail was applied at a concentration of 100 and 10,000 multiplicity of infection (MOI) after artificially contaminating both food items with Salmonella Enteritidis. Results showed that, phage cocktail significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced Salmonella Enteritidis count at both concentrations. However, the increased reduction was witnessed at 10,000 MOI. In comparison to untreated control, on chicken breast meat bacterial count was reduced to 1.94 and 3.17 Log10 cfu/g at 100 and 10,000 MOI respectively at 4oC. Similarly, on shell eggs, the bacterial count was reduced to 3.09 and 2.81 Log10 cfu/mL at 10,000 MOI at 4°C and 25°C respectively, while at 100 MOI there was less drop in bacterial count at both 4°C and 25°C.

The overall percentage of positive samples was 12.87% (13/101), with the stx2 gene, the more potent of the two toxins, found in all the positive samples. The finding of eae gene in combination with stx genes (8/13) within the same genetic pool implies the potential presence of enterohemorrhagic E. coli or the potential emergence of these strains, considering an efficient mechanism of horizontal transfer of three major virulence genes. Our results also highlight dogs' lifestyle as a risk factor for STEC colonisation.
