Novel fluconazole-resistant zoonotic yeast isolated from mastitis
A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted during 2018-2019 to decipher the prevalence of yeast mastitis. The results indicated a 19.68% prevalence of clinical mastitis in bovines. Among them, 5.51% of samples revealed yeasts constituting 1.09% overall prevalence.
