Abstract:
The primary goal of the study is to examine the bacteriological investigations linked with impacted diarrhoeic buffalo calves, regardless of age group, gender, or breed. Faecal swabs were collected aseptically from diarrheal calves for microbiological analysis. During the post-mortem A swab was obtained from affected parts of the gastro-intestinal tract that showed lesions under aseptic circumstances and delivered to the laboratory on ice. The swabs were then placed in a nutrient broth medium for further processing. This study was conducted on buffalo calves raised on private dairy farms as well as animals owned by individuals in the Bikaner region and surrounding areas of Rajasthan. This study includes sixty calves with diarrhea symptoms and twenty calves with no evidence of illness (controlled). The experimental research demonstrated that E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Salmonella spp., and Staphylococcus spp. are some of the most common bacteria discovered in diarrheic calves' feces.
