Abstract

The present study was taken up with an aim to develop antibiogram profile for bacteria causing endometritis and mastitis in bovines in Andhra Pradesh, which is an essential tool to fight against antimicrobial resistance. For the current study, 30 uterine discharges and 34 mastitis milk from bovines were received from different districts of Andhra Pradesh. From 30 uterine discharges, Escherichia coli (47%), Staphylococcus aureus ( 23%), Klebsiella Spp (12%), Proteus Spp (12%), Pseudomonas Spp (6%) were isolated and most of the isolates are sensitive to Gentamicin (10 mcg) followed by Chloramphenicol (30 mcg). And from 34 mastitis milk, Staphylococcus. aureus (73%), Escherichia coli (15%), Streptococcus Spp (6%), Enterococcus Spp (6%) were isolated and antibiogram shows Amikacin (30 mcg), Chloramphenicol (30 mcg) followed by Enrofloxacin (10 mcg) as most effective antimicrobials.
