Summary
This epidemiologic survey characterises the major bacterial pathogens responsible for dairy cow mastitis in Inner Mongolia between 2015 and 2024. By identifying prevalent causative organisms and their antimicrobial resistance profiles across the region, the work provides baseline data to inform prevention strategies and treatment protocols suited to local herd conditions. Such surveillance is essential for understanding disease burden in large-scale dairy production systems and supporting evidence-based farm management.
UK applicability
Whilst the specific bacterial species prevalence may differ from UK dairy herds due to management systems and regional differences, the epidemiologic approach and antimicrobial resistance monitoring methods are directly applicable to UK disease surveillance and herd health programmes. Comparative analysis of pathogen profiles between regions could inform international best practices for mastitis control.
Key measures
Bacterial species identification and frequency; antimicrobial susceptibility patterns; geographic and temporal distribution of mastitis-causing pathogens
Outcomes reported
The study identified and characterised the major causative bacterial species responsible for clinical and subclinical mastitis in dairy herds across Inner Mongolia over a 10-year period (2015–2024). Prevalence patterns, antimicrobial resistance profiles, and temporal epidemiological trends are likely reported.
