    Antimicrobial resistance of Streptococcus spp. and Staphylococcus spp. isolated from respiratory tract of race horses in Türkiye
    (Ankara Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2022) DİRİ, Mehmet; Veteriner; Veteriner Fakültesi
    As with other animal species, one of the most important challenges encountered in race horse breeding is performance and economic losses caused by infectious diseases. Antibiotics are the most important and common drugs used for protection against infectious diseases. Recently with the occurrence of antibiotic resistance, serious complications have emerged in terms of human and animal health. For this reason, to determine antibiotic resistance in bacteria, many research studies have been carried out in the world and Türkiye. However, in Türkiye no comprehensive study has yet been conducted on antibiotic resistance in race horses. Within the scope of this study, it was aimed to investigate antibacterial susceptibility and resistance in Streptococcus spp. and Staphylococcus spp. agents identified through isolation from tracheal aspiration fluid samples taken from thoroughbred horses brought to 75. Yıl Hippodrome Hospital. Disk Diffusion and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) tests were used to determine antibacterial susceptibility. Susceptibility profiles of identified strains against some penicillin, cephalosporin, aminoglycoside, tetracycline, rifamycin and carbapenem group antibacterial drugs were determined. Also, it has been determined that 1 Streptococcus spp. and 10 Staphylococcus spp. agents are sensitive to amoxicillin and ampicillin-sulbactam; moderately sensitive to penicillin and amikacin and resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, kanamycin, gentamicin, enrofloxacin and rifampin.

    Efficiacy of ivermectin solution against Hirstiellosis in green iguanas- case report
    (Ankara Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi, 2022) Sevim, Kadir; Veteriner; Veteriner Fakültesi
    Interest in green iguanas (Iguana iguana) as pet animals is increasing day by day. Compared to other pet animals, the diagnosis and treatment methods of reptilian diseases are limited. Considering that these diseases will also concern public health, new research is required. Hirstiellosis is a zoonotic ectoparasitic disease seen in green iguanas (Iguana iguana). Recommended therapies are mostly empirical, some of which can be low-impact or toxic. The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of ivermectin solution (5 mg/l) in the treatment of hirstiellosis and to provide preliminary data for further studies. Ivermectin solution was found to be effective in the treatment of three iguanas with the aforementioned disease, and no clinical side effects were found in the control examinations made at regular intervals.
