Antibiogram of microorganisms isolated from fresh and frozen semen of crossbred frieswal bulls.
Background: The bacterial contaminants in the semen are a major concern for most of the semen production laboratories because they adversely affect the semen quality. During sperm cryopreservation, the inclusion of antimicrobials in extenders may help to minimize bacterial growth. However, due to bacterial resistance to commonly used antimicrobials, they cannot fully assure microbiological safety to the frozen semen.
Objective: To estimate the microbial load and antibiogram of microorganisms isolated from the fresh and frozen bull semen.
Materials and methods: The bacterial load was estimated in fresh and frozen semen samples of crossbred Frieswal bulls by the pour plate method. Microorganisms were identified as Gram positive and Gram negative by Gram staining. The representative bacterial colonies were streaked onto different specific media which were further confirmed by biochemical tests. Bacterial isolates were subjected to in vitro antibiotic sensitivity test.
Results: The average microbial load of fresh and frozen semen samples was found to be 8397.4 ± 524.3 cfu per mL and 680.9 ± 105.4 cfuper mL, respectively. Microorganisms belonging to Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Proteus, Klebsiella, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Actinomyces, E. coli, Rhodococcus, Neisseria and Micrococcus were identified in the semen samples. The antibiotic sensitivity testing of the bacterial isolates revealed that benzyl penicillin was found to be the least effective against the isolated organisms while gentamicin and spectinomycin were found to be most effective among the antibiotics used. Lincomycin, tylosin and streptomycin showed moderate efficacy against the bacterial isolates.
Conclusion: Gentamicin, tylosin, lincomycin, and spectinomycin (GTLS) antibiotic combination is more effective against bacterial isolates and may be added to semen extender to better control bacterial load and semen quality. doi.org/10.54680/fr22610110512.
期刊介绍:
A bimonthly international journal for low temperature sciences, including cryobiology, cryopreservation or vitrification of cells and tissues, chemical and physical aspects of freezing and drying, and studies involving ecology of cold environments, and cold adaptation
The journal publishes original research reports, authoritative reviews, technical developments and commissioned book reviews of studies of the effects produced by low temperatures on a wide variety of scientific and technical processes, or those involving low temperature techniques in the investigation of physical, chemical, biological and ecological problems.
