Abstract

Uterine samples from 73 bovines (34 cows and 39 buffaloes) showing chronic endometri tis were bacteriologically examined. The diseased animals were classified according to the breeding history and different degrees of endometritis. The 119 Isolates recovered from 32 positive cow samples (90.0%) and 151 Isolants Iso lated from 35 positive cases from buffaloes (89.7%) were differentiated biochemica lly into seven bacterial groups: Micrococcus, Streptococcus, Corynebacterium, Gram negative bacilli, Anthracoides, Yeasts and Moulds. Among the most pathogens encount ered in bovine chronic endometritis are: Staph. aureus, Str. pyogenes, C.pyogenes. C. ovis, E. coll, Ps. aeruginosa, k. genitalium and some species of Proteus, Yeasts and Moulds.
