Antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. capri field isolates from goats in India

Keywords:
Antimicrobial susceptibility, Caprine pleuropneumonia, Indian isolates, Mycoplasma mycoides subsp capriAbstract
Erythromycin and Tylosin (Macrolides) followed by Tetracycline and Doxycycline (Tetracyclines) are found to be the best drugs of choice, under in-vitro antibiotic sensitivity test conducted with Disc diffusion method for the 10 Indian Mmc isolates recovered from goats. These relevant antibiotics may be recommended for use under field conditions. Although we have to keep in mind the gene exchange in Mollicutes along with other mechanisms, which may lead to the variation in their sensitivity to antibiotics in coming time.Downloads
