Application of some lactobacillus strains product for control of salmonella typhimurium infection in diarrhoeic neonatal calves [electronic resource].

Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium (S. typhimurium) was isolated from both dead and clinically diarrhoeic beef calves, which had history of severe diarrhoea. Another two serovars (Salmonella enterica serovar dublin (S.dublin) and Salmonella enterica serovar muenster (S.muenster) were demonstrated from both clinically diarrhoeic calves as well as from the contact apparently healthy ones. Out of 77 diarrhoeic cattle calves, 34 were proven positive for Salmonella isolates (44.2%) whereas the apparently healthy contact calves showed lower rate of isolation 12 out of 97 (12.9%). S.typhimurium was the most dominant serovar as revealed from the isolation pattern.
