HOSSAIN, MD. SHAHADAT
The study was conducted to ascertain the prevalence of different diseases of dairy&#13;
cattle in selected dairy farms at Raipura upazila, Narsingdi. It was conducted during&#13;
the period from January to December, 2021. During the study period a total of 25&#13;
owners or attendants were interviewed and an entire of 200 cattle were examined and&#13;
analyzed where 44 were identified with different diseases. Each of the clinical case&#13;
was diagnosed on the basis of history, general examination, physical examination and&#13;
clinical findings. The overall prevalence of different diseases was 22 % in study area.&#13;
Among the clinical cases, mastitis 13.63% was the highest in all recorded cases.&#13;
Furthermore, Lumpy Skin Disease 11.36%, Foot and Mouth Disease 9.1%,&#13;
pneumonia 6.82%, bloat 6.82%, navel ill 6.82%, bovine ephemeral fever 4.54%,&#13;
diarrhea 4.54%, endoparasitic infestation 4.54%, acidosis 2.27% and retained placenta&#13;
2.27% etc. were also commonly recorded. It was noted that local breed (68.18%) were&#13;
highly susceptible for different diseases and disorders than cross breed (31.82%)&#13;
cattle. In relation to age, &gt;3 years aged cattle (43.18%) were found more infected with&#13;
diseases as compared with 1-4 years aged cattle (31.82%) and &lt;1year aged (25%)&#13;
cattle. Among the seasonal cases, summer season (40.91%) had higher prevalence of&#13;
different diseases of dairy cattle than rainy season (34.1%) followed by winter season&#13;
(25%) in study area. From the study it was evident that dairy in study area cattle were&#13;
infected with different diseases and caused a huge economic losses to farmers.&#13;
Immunoprophylaxis and hygienic management should be initiated to curb the&#13;
prevalence of common diseases in dairy cattle. So further epidemiological and&#13;
laboratory study should be needed to confirm the etiology, prevention and control&#13;
measures of the diseases in dairy cattle at study area.

Poultry origin zoonotic Campylobacter spp. is considered as one of the leading causal&#13;
agents of human foodborne illness. A cross-sectional study (October 2020 to January&#13;
2021) was conducted to estimate the prevalence of Campylobacter spp. colonization&#13;
and its associated risk factors in the broiler farms of Munshigonj, Narayanganj and&#13;
Narsingdi Districts in Bangladesh. Cloacal swab samples were collected and pooled&#13;
from the broiler farms Standard bacteriological and molecular techniques were&#13;
followed to isolate and identify Campylobacter spp. Data on management,&#13;
biosecurity, mortality and hygiene practices were collected using a structured&#13;
questionnaire. The majors risk factors were analyzed at the farm level. Among 100&#13;
pooled (five samples from each broiler farm) cloacal swab samples from 100 broiler&#13;
farms, the prevalence of Campylobacter spp. was estimated to be 24% (95% CI&#13;
16.02–33.57). The tended to be higher prevalence Campylobacter spp. colonization&#13;
was found in Narsindi district (32.35%) followed by Narayanganj (27.78%) and&#13;
Munshiganj (10%) (p=0.09). In risk factor analysis, the factors more significantly&#13;
associated with Campylobacter colonization were human traffic (more than one&#13;
person enter into the shed, p=0.006), source of water (tube well, p=&lt;0.001), not using&#13;
of dedicated cloth or footwear into the farms (p=0.032), no use of disinfection of&#13;
farms before restock (p=0.014) and less gap (minimum 14 days) between two batches&#13;
during broiler rearing (p=0.008) associated with tended risk factors included absence&#13;
of footbath facilities, presence of rodents in the farms, litter store outside of farms&#13;
(0.05&lt;p&lt;0.1). The study gathered evidence of the presence of Campylobacter spp.&#13;
colonization in the broiler farms and identified the factors that could help set effective&#13;
interventions in the controlling of Campylobacter infection in chickens to reduce &#13;
Campylobacter infection in humans through broilers. &#13;
Keywords: Campylobacter spp., cloacal swab, prevalence, risk factors, Biosecurity.

MOHANTO, KAKOLEE
This study was conducted in order to isolate, identify and to profiling the status of&#13;
antibiotic sensitivity of the important public health organism Escherichia coli of&#13;
companion animal. A total of 30 fecal samples of cats and dogs were collected from two&#13;
different regions of Dhaka city, aseptically and inoculated onto various culture media for&#13;
isolation of E. coli. The microorganisms were isolated and identified by performing&#13;
cultural characteristics and biochemical tests. The study had been conducted based on&#13;
species, age, location and gender of host species. The prevalence of E. coli infection in&#13;
cat was 66.67% and in dog was 60.00%, respectively with same ratio of resistance in&#13;
male and female in dog whereas in cat female were more resistance than male. To&#13;
perform the disc diffusion method for profiling the antibiotic sensitivity, 10 commonly&#13;
used antibiotics were used. The highest rate of resistance was recorded in Metronidazole&#13;
(57.89%) and Amoxicillin (52.63%) followed by Co-trimoxazole (41.10%),&#13;
Ciprofloxacin (31.57%), Ceftriaxone (31.57%) and Azithromycin (26.31%). The highest&#13;
rate of sensitivity was recorded to Cefixime (52.63%) followed by Ciprofloxacin&#13;
(36.84%), Cefuroxime (36.84%) and Gentamicin (36.84%). Data from this study reveal&#13;
that companion animal like cat and dog carry multi-drug resistant E. coli sp. which can be&#13;
transferred to human and can cause a public health hazard.

This study was conducted to isolate, identify and antibiotic profiling of Salmonella&#13;
spp. harbors in cat, which are raised as household pets at Dhanmondi, Mohammadpur,&#13;
Mirpur and Agargaon in Dhaka city. A total of 40 fecal samples were collected from&#13;
Vet and Pet Care Clinics to carry out this study. All samples were collected&#13;
aseptically and inoculated onto various culture media for isolation of bacteria.&#13;
Identification of bacteria from positive samples were performed by cultural&#13;
characteristics, Gram’s staining and biochemical tests. The overall prevalence of&#13;
Salmonella spp. in fecal samples in cats were found 53%. The study was conducted&#13;
according to breed, sex, age and area basis where the most prevalence of Salmonella&#13;
were found between 1 to 3 years of age (75%). Agargaon and Mohammadpur areas&#13;
were subjected to most Salmonella infected area (60%). Antibiotic sensitivity&#13;
profiling of the isolated Salmonella spp. was performed by the disc diffusion method&#13;
against 10 randomly used antibiotics. The highest rate of sensitivity against&#13;
Salmonella was found with Ceftriaxone (77%) and Ciprofloxacin (72%) followed by&#13;
Cefuroxime (67%), Amoxicillin + Clavulanic Acid (67%), Cotrimoxazole (53%),&#13;
Cefixime (52%) and Gentamycin (48%). The highest rate of resistance was recorded&#13;
to Amoxicillin (57%) and Cefuroxime (43%). Among the areas, the most sensitive of&#13;
Salmonella was found in Dhanmondi (60%) and Mirpur (56%). The drug resistance of&#13;
Salmonella spp. among Mohammadpur (28%), Agargaon (25%), Mirpur (20%) and&#13;
Dhanmondi (17%) area were observed in this study. Data from this study suggest that&#13;
domestic cats carry multi-drug resistant against Salmonella spp. which can be&#13;
transferred to humans through direct contact or the food chain and can cause a&#13;
potential public health hazard.
