Abstract
Endometritis remains a major clinical problem in broodmare practice. The diagnosis of endometritis must be based on the presence of inflammation; diagnosis of endometritis is based on the mares history, physical and reproductive examination including transrectal ultrasonography and laboratory diagnostic aids. In this study, eighteen repeat breeder mares were suspected to be suffered from endometritis through their examination by ultrasonography. A total of 18 uterine swabs from these mares were evaluated and the bacterial isolates were identified, also The Effect of treatment on the uterine bacterial infection mares of the experiment on pregnancy rate was assessed. Ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin was the most effective antimicrobial agent inhibiting most of uterine bacterial isolates in our work. In this study the bacterial species most frequently isolated was E. coli (9 isolates, 50%), Staphylococcus aureus (5 isolates, 27.8%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (3 isolates, 16.7%),citrobacter freundii and Streptococci (2 isolates, 11.1%). The study also revealed that other Klebsiella oxytoca, Providencia alcalifaciens and Proteus mirabilis were found in the uterine culture but in a very lower frequencies.
