Title: [Finding of the staphyloccoi and streptococci of mastitis on the udder after various ways and means of cleaning].
Abstract: The presence of mastitis staphylococci and streptococci on the udder's surface of 400 cows was studied following application of various ways and means of cleaning. The presence of agents causing mastitis was determined before and after cleaning the udder. On uncleaned udder surfaces presence of mastitis staphylococci was observed in 52.5% and of mastitis streptococci--39.5% of udders studied. After washing with water mastitis staphylococci--on 12-20% of the udders. Following udder cleaning with solutions of antigerm 50 (0.04%) or yozan CCT (4%), mastitis staphylococci were found on 4% and 6% of the udders, respectively, while mastitis staphylococci--on 2% and 6%, respectively. Udder surface staphylococci belong in 2.2% to II phagous group, in 46.6%--to the III group, and in 37.7% -- to mixed groups. The most frequently encountered phagous types were 6 and 42D.
