Normal vaginal and preputial bacterial microflora in cattle in Senegal

Abstract

A systematic bacteriologic inventory has been made, concerning external genital segments, vestibule-vaginal and preputial, in local and imported cattle, males and females, clinically normal. So, the relationship between the microflora general profile, the pH and the environmental factors can be defined, in order to determine the infectious or symbiotic character, strict or not, of these germs.
