Summary. The
results of the microbial biofilms formation by subclinical and clinical forms
of cattle mastitis agents were presented. It was
determined, those in cattle with subclinical form of mastitis 2.5 times more
strains of Staphylococcus aureus were allocated. It is occurred,
that biofilm density compared to the clinical form of mastitis demonstrates
such level of range. In addition, staphylococci, which are the causative agents
of cattle mastitis in 1.4–1.7 times more often
form the dense biofilm in comparison to streptococci. The development of the
dense staphylococcal biofilms provides their long-term existence on the teats
skin and in the breast of carrier’s cattle with subclinical form of
mastitis. This helps to transform these animals into the pathogen reservoir.
Anti-epizootic measures should always be conducted
among the animals with clinical form of mastitis for the preventing of
infection process chronic transformation. At a subclinical form of mastitis bacteria are located in biofilm matrix and the
antimicrobial effect will be less effective.
