Özet

Background: The aim of this study is to examine the microbiological, clinical, physiological and pathological findings of natural polymicrobial infection developing in a wistar rat colony under long-term observation. Methods: In this study, 70 male Wistar albino rats, 3 years old, raised by conventional methods and housed in a cage environment were used. Thirteen rats with clinical symptoms such as torticollis and rotation were sacrificed for microbiological and histopathological examination after 14 days. For microbiological examination, the rapid diagnostic kit BBL Crystal system was used to identify bacterial agents in tissue and stool samples and the traditional culture method was used for isolation. Result: As a result of microbiological analysis, the rarely isolated Staphylococcus capitis ( S. capitis ) was isolated. Different Staphylococcus spp. It has been determined that the species can cause suppurative meningoencephalitis as well as septicemia in the brains of experimental animals., it is thought that polymicrobial infection will be useful for the identification of bacterial agents and infection prevention and treatment strategies.
