In 82% of cows, contamination of the genitals with conditionally pathogenic microflora of E. coli was established in 17% of cases, S. aureus - 15%, P. mirabilis - 14%, S. pyogenes - 14%, S. pyogenes, R. vulgaris, C. albicans - 14.0%; S. aureus, E. coli, C. albicans - 14.0%; S. aureus, P. mirabilis, E. coli, C. albicans, A. fumigatus, M. racemosus in 12% of cases of latent endometritis. In salpingitis, microorgans were isolated in the association of S. aureus, P. mirabilis, C. albicans in 28.5% of cases; E. coli, P. mirabilis in 27.7% of cases; E. coli, P. vulgaris, C. albicans, A. fumigatus - 25.2%; S. aureus, E. coli, C. albicans, A. fumigatus - 13.1%, the rest in 5.5% of cases. In patients with latent endometritis and salpingitis, fungi were isolated in 29.6% of cases of A. fumigatus and in 70.4% of cases - C. albicans and C. crusei. Milk obtained from sick cows with latent endometritis and salpingitis showed 2 times higher total bacterial contamination than milk obtained from healthy animals.
