Abstract

Ocular swabs (n=136) were examined bacteriologically, for isolation and identification of the bacterial causes of keratoconjunctivitis in native sheep and goats during the period from September 2010 to November 2011, in Mosul, Iraq. Results revealed isolation of bacteria from 84.4% and 61.1% examined swabs in sheep and goats respectively. The bacterial most prevalent species isolates from sheep included Corynebacterium ovis, followed by Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus spp., Staph .epidermidis, while, Bacillus spp < /em>. were most prevalent, followed by Cor. ovis, Staph. aureus in goats. The results revealed that the most bacterial isolates were sensitive to Norfoxacin and Chloramphenicol.
