| Abstract | ||||
| 12 samples of aborted foeti, 48 samples of mastitic milk and 16 samples of straw semen were examined for presence of molds and pathogenic yeasts. 163 strains of mold and yeast were isolated. These included Aspergillus spp. (Flavus, niger, achraceus), Fusarium spp., Penicellium spp., Mucor spp., Cladosporium spp. and Candida albicans. 95 strains of most toxigenic molds and pathogenic yeast (Asp. flavus, Asp. achraceus, Fusarium spp., Penicellium spp. and Candida albicans) were tested against 7 antimycotic drugs with different concentrations (30 ug and 10 ug). The predominant toxigenic fungi (Asp. spp.) were sensitive to a wide range of antimycotic drugs. The most effective antimycotic agent was Lamisil with low concentration 10 ug. Griseofulvin, mucostate and fulvin had a very little effect. In using lamisil in treatment of some cases of mycotic mastitis, it was very effective with complete recovery. | ||||
