Summary
A retrospective data was analyzed in prevalence of sub clinical mastitis and subsequent In vitro antibiotic susceptibility against mastitis causing pathogens of Nili
Ravi Buffaloes (n = 1236) using surf field mastitis test (SFMT) and antibiogram assay, Kirby Bauer Antibiotic Sensitivity Test, with commonly practiced antibiotics. The prevalence was found to be (61.48%) (n = 760). Nevertheless, Norfloxacin (33.49%) was found to be more susceptible antibiotic (p < 0.05) followed by Enrofloxacin (29.12%), Ciprofloxacin (20.55%), Cholramphenicol (15.12%), Amoxicillin (13.99%), Gentamycin (12.62%), Colistin sulphate (10.27%), Sulphamethoxazole (9.70%) and Bacitracin (3.80%).
