Isolation and Identification of Pathological Agents in Dogs with Otitis Externa

Abstract

The present study was conducted to record the suitable cytological diagnostic procedure followed by the isolation and identification of important pathogens causing external otitis in dogs. Out of total 251 dogs presented in Veterinary Hospitals of Drug district, ear swabs were obtained from 51 dogs of 1 to 8 years with clinically diagnosed otitis Samples collected were grown on special culture media and identification was based on morphological and biochemical characters of cultured for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, using standard microbiological technique to diagnose isolates. Staphylococcus Spp was found to be most common bacterial isolate (52.94%) responsible for causation of otitis externa in dogs followed by Pseudomonas spp. (21.56%). However, other bacteria and yeast contributed for less than 10% of cases respectively
