Abstract

Bovine digital dermatitis (BDD) is an infectious skin disease of the hoof characterized by painful ulcerations that cause lameness in dairy cattle. Cell-free supernatants (CFS) of Falsiporphyromonas endometrii predominantly isolated from BDD lesions had the highest growth-stimulating effect on Treponema phagedenis among BDD-associated bacteria. Butyric acid was detected at a concentration of 45.4 mM in CFS of F. endometrii, and the growth of T. phagedenis was significantly promoted by butyric acid supplementation.
