The total incidence of subclinical mastitis in Alexandria Governorate was 13.33% .While the incidence in 4 farms (Abees – Ameria- Borg-El-Arab and Mariout ) were ( 14.3 %, 13.9% , 12.5%, and 10% ) respectively. The number of the bacterial isolates in these investigation was 92 isolates, while the number and frequency percentages of the isolates were Staphylococcus aureus 23 (25%), Streptococcus agalactia 20 (21.37%), Streptococcus dysagalactia  8 isolates (8.69%), E-coli 8  (8.69%), Arctenobacterium bovis 18 (19.26%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa  13 (14.13%), and Pseudomonas fluorescens 2 isolates (2.17%).
