Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the bacterial groups obtained from the milk of buffaloes with subclinical mastitis and the milk SCC rate. For this purpose, this study was carried out on 60 milk samples collected from Water buffalo with subclinical mastitis and healthy. Milk samples were divided into three groups as healthy (Group 1; n=20), and with subclinical mastitis caused by Gram negative (Group 2; n=20) and by Gram positive bacteria (Group 3; n=20). SCC value was statistically lower in Group 1 compared to Group 2 and Group 3 (P<0.01). However, it was determined that there was no significant difference between Group 2 and Group 3 in terms of SCC (P>0.05). In conclusion, SCC value significantly increased in milk with sub-clinical mastitis compared to healthy milk. However, there was no difference in SCC value in milk samples with mastitis caused by gram negative and gram positive bacteria.

Subklinik mastitisli manda sütünden izole edilen bakteri grupları ile somatik hücre sayıları arasındaki ilişkinin araştırılması

Abstract

Bu çalışmada subklinik mastitisli mandaların sütünden elde edilen bakteri grupları ile süt SHS oranı arasındaki ilişkinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla, bu çalışma subklinik mastitisli ve sağlıklı mandadan toplanan 60 adet süt örneği üzerinde gerçekleştirildi. Süt örnekleri sağlıklı (Grup 1; n=20) ve Gram negatif (Grup 2; n=20) ve Gram pozitif bakterilerin neden olduğu subklinik mastitisli (Grup 3; n=20) gruplar olmak üzere üçe ayrıldı. Grup 2 ve Grup 3'e göre Grup 1’in SHS değeri istatistiksel olarak daha düşüktü (P<0.01). Ancak Grup 2 ile Grup 3 arasında SHS açısından anlamlı fark olmadığı belirlendi (P>0.05). Sonuç olarak subklinik mastitisli sütlerde SHS değeri sağlıklı süte göre anlamlı olarak arttı. Ancak gram-negatif ve gram-pozitif bakterilerin neden olduğu mastitisli süt örneklerinde SHS değerinde fark yoktu.
