Mastitis is the potential threat in the diary industry and caused by different types of bacteria. Campylobacter jejuni is significant food borne pathogen and causing clinical mastitis in bovines. Campylobacter is also associated with abortion, enteritis, colitis and in human severe urinary tract infection. There is less evidence of report on the mastitis caused by Campylobacter and their antibiogram studies. Hence this study is planned to determine the occurrence of Campylobacter mastitis in bovines and document their antibiotic sensitivity for effective treatment control of mastitis

Mastitis, antibiogram, public health

The present was conducted to identify the prevalence of C.jejuni in clinical mastitis of buffaloes. 6 isolate could be isolated from 26 milk samples. Biotyping and antibiotic sensitivity pattern of the isolates were performed and their zoonotic and public health importance were discussed.
