| description | Staphylococcal mastitis is one of the major economic problems of cattle. The aim of this study was to identify Staphylococcus species that
cause mastitis, to examine the virulence factors of these species and to determine the relation between these factors with the pathogenic and
nonpathogenic species. In the study, 37 S. aureus, 13 S. hyicus, 9 S. simulans, 8 S. chromogenes, 5 S. lentus, 5 S. epidermidis, 2 S. haemolyticus, 2 S.
hominis, 1 S. auricularis, 1 S. warneri, 1 S. sciuri were isolated and identified. The 41.6% of strains were determined as coagulase positive. In the
coagulase positive strains, the rate of protein A, DNase, TNase, capsul, hemolyse, staphylokinase, slime (in agar), biofilm (microdilution) and
hemagglutination characteristics were found 71.4%, 48.6%, 11.4%, 40%, 97.1%, 40%, 28.6%, 37.1% and 17.1%, respectively. In the coagulase
negative strains, the rate of these characteristics were found 10.2%, 12.2%, 2%, 8.2%, 82%, 32.7%, 12.2%, 12.2% and 10.2%, respectively. The
methicillin resistance rates in the coagulase positive and negative strains were determined as 2.9 and 16.3%. In conclusion, it was of the opinion
that animals are potential carriers of staphylococcus strains that are pathogen for human. |
