Bhakti (Research Institute for Veterinary Science, Bogor (Indonesia)). Soeripto and M.B . Poerwadikarta, 1990. Isolation of Mycoplasma sp . from keratoconjunctivitis of goats. Penyakit Hewan 22 (40) : 76-79. Forty goats were bought from Cisarua Bogor of Indonesia for a pneumonia experiment . One of the goats had clinical conjunctivitis on arrival . All the goats were kept in an enclosed wooden pen in Research Institute for Veterinary Science, Bogor. Aweek later almost all of the goats had conjunctivitis with whitish lesions in one or both corneas. Swabs were taken from the conjunctiva and cultured onto mycoplasma broth and agar . Both large and small mycoplasma-like organisms were isolated besides Moraxella ovis and Staphylococcus aureus. The mycoplasma isolates were identified using biochemical tests. The results suggested that 2 isolates resemble to M. mycoides subsp capri, one isolate to M. capricolum and one isolate belong to the M. mycoides cluster . The remaining mycoplasma could be M. sp. 2D or M. bovis, both of which have occurred in goats, although rarely. ARTVET0252
