Objective: Various facultative pathogenic bacteria have been detected in the dog's prepuce. To prevent the transmission of these bacteria, some breeders flush the prepuce of their stud dogs before mating. The purpose of this study is to find out whether preputial flushing is medically useful before mating.

Fungal dysbiosis following antibacterial monotherapy in canine otitis externa.

J Small Anim Pract

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate whether treating refractory bacterial otitis in dogs with specific topical antibiotics leads to an increase in yeast overgrowth, particularly Malassezia.
  • Twenty-nine dogs were treated with either fluoroquinolone or a combination of piperacillin and tazobactam, and ear swabs were taken to measure bacterial and yeast levels before and after treatment.
  • Results showed a significant reduction in bacterial infections after treatment, but a notable increase in yeast (especially in dogs treated with piperacillin/tazobactam), highlighting the importance of monitoring for yeast overgrowth during antibacterial treatment.

Background: Streptococcus canis is a commensal bacterium in companion animals. This microorganism can infect humans who have been in deep contact with or bitten by pet dogs, suggesting that the skin/soft tissue is one of infection entry sites. To understand pathological process in human cells, we aimed to determine S.

Bacterial keratitis is a common and serious condition that often leads to vision impairment and potential loss of the eye if not treated promptly and adequately. Topical blood products are often used concurrently with topical antibiotics, helping to mitigate corneal 'melt' from proteases released on the ocular surface. However, blood products are rich in albumin and could affect the efficacy of antibiotics due to drug-protein binding.
