| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT Bacteriological, cytological and biochemical testing were performed on synovial fluid of 100 (50 female and 50 male) slaughtered cows seen in Basrah slaughter house. The bacterial isolation revealed that the incidence of infected caw was 17(34%) in female and 11(22%) in male. Bacterial isolates include Staphylococcus aureus and Corynobacterium pyogenes. The results of biochemical testing indicate that mucin clot test varied from poor to fair clotting, the total protein of infected animals significantly higher than that of control group. While the cytological analysis showed that the total leuckocytic count was significantly higher (P<0.01) than the control group with high percentage of neurophils. Low level of synovial fluid glucose is noted in infected animal in compare to control group. | ||
