Özet

Mastitis is an economically important disease of intensive buffalo dairy farming worldwide.Detection of subclinical mastitis (SCM) is important for its management and control. The purposeof this study was to estimate the prevalence of reproductive disorders, SCM and udder healthmanagement practices in the buffalo dairy farms of Bhola District, Bangladesh. Data on animaldemographics, reproduction status, daily milk yield and status of California Mastitis Test (CMT)result were recorded. A total of 402 buffaloes were observed in two farms at Bhola district andamong them 70 milking buffaloes were randomly selected for CMT. The overall prevalence of SCMin buffalo was 20.0%. Young age group of buffaloes was more susceptible for SCM and it was notsignificant difference. Parity and stage of lactation have no any effect on SCM. However, abortioncase was more susceptible to SCM than other diseases but not any significant difference. Duringmilking the milkers never use any antiseptic solution for washing the udder and never use any feedsupply during milking. Among the isolated organisms Staphylococcus spp. and E. coli were foundmore frequent in the study area and gentamicin and ciprofloxaclin were most sensitive to theisolated organisms. From this study it was concluded that buffalo’s udder was very resistance toSCM infection and udder management practice was very poor. Common antibiotics were resistanceto isolated organisms from SCM case. Gentamicin and ciprofloxacin were found more susceptibleagainst all four isolated organisms.
