The high protein content of milk makes it a crucial component of human nutrition. The mammary tissue of dairy cattle is seriously harmed by the severe disease known as mastitis. Mastitis is a widespread and economically significant infectious disease that affects dairy cows globally. One of the most frequent causes of subclinical mastitis in dairy cows and one of the most frequent indications for antibiotic therapy is Streptococcus spp. The purpose of the study was to investigate into the presence of Streptococcus spp. isolates in subclinical mastitis bovine milk. The presence of subclinical mastitis was investigated in 77 dairy animals. After the evaluation, 32 (41.5%) dairy animals showed positive results. Streptococcus spp. was detected in nine isolates (19.50%). As a result, it has been demonstrated that Streptococcus spp. still plays a significant role in the etiology of subclinical mastitis. This has the potential to present an important concern for public health.
