Abstract

Caseosa lymphadenitis is a chronic bacterial disease that affects small ruminants, characterized by suppurative necrotizing inflammation of lymph nodes; It is caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis and highly contagious, generating zoonotic risks and economic losses due to the reduction of weight gain, milk production and discarding of animals, impacting the productive potential in this type of livestock. The objective of this investigation was to describe the antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates of C. pseudotuberculosis in goat herds of the Falcón state.
