Resumo

Background: Literature about presence Corynebacterium ulcerans in milk samples from cows with mastitis is rare and in the literature there are only a few reports. In this study the isolation and identification of Corynebacterium ulcerans from mastitis in dairy cows were done. Also, optimization of diagnostic protocols to identify Corynebacterium ulcerans was performed.Materials, Methods & Results: The investigation was performed at the cattle farm that is characterized by closed housing system diary Holstein-Friesian cows during an outbreak of acute mastitis. Milk samples from 298 lactating cows were collected in sterile sampling tubes. Before the collection of quarter milk samples, the udder was thoroughly cleaned with soap and water and rubbed to dry. All collected milk samples were examined for mastitis using California mastitis test, which was carried out by the method first described by Schalm and Noorlander. Equal volumes (5 mL) of commercial CMT reagent and quarter milk were mixed and the changes in milk fluidity and viscosity were observed. Sample portions (0.1 mL each) were inoculated on 10% sheep blood agar, Endo agar and Sabouraud agar as well as on thioglycolate medium and nutrient broth. Primary plates were incubated for 3 days at 37o C in aerobic conditions. Cultural, morphological and conventional biochemical testing was done. The survey was complemented by d
