Abstract:
The species composition was determined in the set of 52 randomly selected strains of coagulase-negative staphylococci, which were isolated from the milk of dairy cows in 1989. Of this set of strains, the following species were identified: Staphylococcus hyicus subsp. chromogenes (26.9% strains of the set), S. hyicus subsp. hyicus (10.3%), S. xylosus (19.3%), S. saprophyticus (11.5%), S. warneri (9.6%), S. haemolyticus (9.6%), S. hominis (3.8%). Attention is drawn to the increasing occurrence and significance of coagulase-negative staphylococci from the point of view of mastitis in dairy cows.
