Buzağı artritlerinden izole edilen bakteriyel etkenler: retrospektif bir çalışma

Bu çalışmada, 2010-2018 yılları arasında Mehmet Akif Ersoy Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Mikrobiyoloji Laboratuvarına septik artrit şüphesi ile gönderilen 153 buzağıya ait sinoviyal sıvı örnekleri bakteriyolojik olarak incelendi. Sinoviyal sıvı örneklerinden kanlı agar, MacConkey agar ve mikoplazma selektif agara ekimler yapıldı ve standart bakteriyolojik metotlarla izolasyon ve identifikasyonları gerçekleştirildi. Sinoviyal sıvı örneklerinin 100’ünde bakteriyel etken izole edilirken, 53 örnekte izolasyon yapılamadı. Örneklerin 30’undan (% 19.6) Mycoplasma sp., 19’undan (% 12.4) Trueperella pyogenes ve 17’sinden (% 11.1) ise Streptococcus sp. tek başına en fazla izole edilen etken oldu. T. pyogenes, Mycoplasma ve Streptococcus türlerinin eşlik ettiği 16 örnekte de miks enfeksiyon saptandı. Diğer patojenler olarak Staphylococcus aureus, koagülaz negatif stafilokok, Escherichia coli, Pasteurella multocida, Mannheimia haemolytica, Proteus sp., Corynebacterium sp., Salmonella sp., Klebsiella sp.ve Citrobacter sp. izole edildi. Sonuç olarak, Burdur ilinde buzağı artritlerinden sorumlu en yaygın etkenlerin Mycoplasma sp., T. pyogenes ve Streptococcus sp. olduğu ve tedavi öncesi sinoviyal sıvılarının bakteriyolojik incelenmesinin faydalı olacağı kanısına varıldı.

Bacterial agents isolated from calves with arthritis: a retrospective study

In this study, synovial fluid samples of 153 calves with the suspicion of septic arthritis sent to Microbiology Laboratory at Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, between 2010 and 2018 were examined bacteriologically. Synovial fluid samples were spread on blood agar, MacConkey agar and mycoplasma selective agar, and conventional bacteriological methods were used for the isolation and identification of the agents. Bacteriological agents were isolated in 100 samples, but not isolated in 53 samples. Mycoplasma sp., Trueperella pyogenes and Streptococcus sp. were isolated as a single agent from 30 (19.6 %), 19 (12.4 %) and 17 (11.1 %) of the samples, respectively. Mix infections were detected in 16 samples that were positive also for T. pyogenes, Mycoplasma and Streptococcus species. The other pathogens isolated were Staphylococcus aureus, coagulase negative staphylococci, Escherichia coli, Pasteurella multocida, Mannheimia haemolytica, Proteus sp., Corynebacterium sp., Salmonella sp., Klebsiella sp.and Citrobacter sp. Consequently, it is stated that the most prevalent agents responsible from arthritis in calves in Burdur province are Mycoplasma sp., T. pyogenes and Streptococcus sp. Additionally, it is thought that it may be beneficial to examine synovial fluids by bacteriological culturing before treatment.
