overlook of subclinical mastitis among buffaloes at Behera governorate

A total of 584 apparently normal milk samples were collected from 145 dairy buffalos from apparently healthy quarters.

Applied field tests were Schalm, Frieso, modified white and Negretti. The most predominant microorganisms were staphylococci and streptococci, yeasts and moulds were also isolated
