Abstract
Mastitis is an important disease of small ruminants (SR) that results in substantial morbidity, mortality, and economic losses from treatment or loss of product. There is currently little information on SR mastitis pathogens or antimicrobial sensitivity in U.S. populations. This study 1) identifies breed, age, production use and stage of lactation of SR diagnosed with mastitis at a veterinary teaching hospital (VTH); 2) characterizes bacterial species and antimicrobial sensitivity in SR mastitis; and 3) classifies SR mastitis into peracute, acute, subclinical and chronic, and correlates with bacterial isolates.
