Abstract

This study was carried out species identification and antibiotics susceptibility of Staphylococci Isolated from bovine mastitic milk, chicks, Korean indigenous goats, pigs and mice in northern area of Kyungbuk. The result were summarized as follows ; A total of 71 Staphylococci were Isolated from bovine mastitic milk, chicken, pig, Korean indigenous goat and mouse. The results of identification of 71 Staphylococci revealed that S. aureus was most important pathogen in animals tested. Of 39 Staphylococci from bovine mastitic milk, 16 of 39 isolates (41%) were S. aureus and 9 of 39 isolates (23% ) were S. hyicus subsp chromogens. The results of susceptibility test to 16 antibiotics revealed that 91.5% of all isolates were resistant to more than 1 antibiotic and resistance to penicillin was most high (76.1%), All Isolates were susceptible to vancomycin.
