The protective effects of Ocimum sanctum leaf juice as supportive therapy in induced chronic staphylococcal mastitis were evaluated with intravenous ceftriaxone injection in lactating goats. Chronic mastitis was induced after 30days of intracisternal inoculation of 2000 c.f.u. of Staphylococcus aureus (J 638) into the left teat of the udder in two Groups of goats (Group I and Group II). Group I mastitic goats received only ceftriaxone injection i.v. at 20mg/kg at 4days intervals two times, whereas Group II mastitic goats were given fresh undiluted O. sanctum leaf juice at 5ml/kg orally for consecutive 14days with intravenous ceftriaxone injection at 20mg/kg at 7days intervals two times. In the animals receiving O. sanctum leaf juice, the plasma concentration of ceftriaxone increased to 0.11±0.03μg/ml, 33.93±1.54μg/ml, 1.62±0.17μg/ml, 0.70±0.09μg/ml and 0.19±0.03μg/ml vs control at 48, 216, 240, 264 and 288h with an increased concentration of ceftizoxime i.e., 0.26±0.03μg/ml,0.58±0.05μg/ml, 0.85±0.02μg/ml,1.26±0.04μg/ml, 2.82±0.04μg/ml, 1.96±0.04μg/ml, 0.67±0.02μg/ml vs below detectable level in control Group at 72, 216, 240, 264, 288, 312 and 336h, respectively. Further, the concentration of its metabolite i.e., ceftizoxime increased to 4.08±0.18μg/ml and 0.80±0.18μg/ml at day 4 and 6, respectively in milk from a below detectable level and milk concentration of both ceftriaxone and ceftizoxime increased in both halves of the udder at different time in Group II goats. No S. aureus colony was seen in milk at 96h post treatment in Group II goats. O. sanctum leaf juice (0.05ml) decreased the minimum inhibitory concentration of ceftriaxone (3μg/ml) and ceftizoxime (1μg/ml) to 0.5μg/ml for both the drugs against inoculated S. aureus. O. sanctum treatment significantly reduced the alkaline phosphatase activity along with an increase in lactoperoxidase activity maintaining normal reduced glutathione level with intravenous ceftriaxone therapy. The findings proved that O. sanctum leaf juice has significant bioenhancing and antioxidant activities which can be used as supportive therapy in staphylococcal chronic mastitis in goat.
