Pineda, Yuraima & Santander, Jorge

Abstract

A bacteriological study was performed on 226 semen samples from healthy boars collected from five pig farms in two Venezuelan states. The evaluation of fresh and diluted semen showed a wide variety of bacteria range from normal and potentially pathogenic flora. E. coli was the most common bacteria isolated, followed by Staphylococcus epidermidis check for this species in other resources , Proteus vulgaris check for this species in other resources , Streptococcus, Streptococcus spp. β hemolytic, Staphylococcus aureus check for this species in other resources and Psedomonas aeruginosa check for this species in other resources . The bacteria were found to be resistant to the antimicrobials normally used in commercial diluents semen.

Pineda, Yuraima & Santander, Jorge

Resumen

Se realizaron estudios bacteriológicos de 226 muestras de semen de verracos sanos utilizados como reproductores procedentes de cinco granjas porcinas provenientes de dos estados de Venezuela. La evaluación bacteriológica del semen fresco y diluido indico la presencia de una amplia variedad de géneros bacterianos entre flora normal y potencialmente patógena. E. coli fue la bacteria más frecuentemente aislada seguida por Staphylococcus epidermidis check for this species in other resources , Proteus vulgaris check for this species in other resources , Streptococcus spp. β hemolítico, Staphylococcus aureus check for this species in other resources y Psedomonas aeruginosa check for this species in other resources . Estos aislados fueron resistentes a los antimicrobianos utilizados en los diluentes comerciales de semen.
