Changes of bacterial microflora of genitals is one of the reasons of infertility and is the problem reproduction in thoroughbred horse breeding. The solution of this problem requires a series of experiments to be carried out for definition of the taxonomical characteristic of vagina microorganisms of healthy and sick mares of English thoroughbred riding, Arab, achaltekin breeds of various age. Standard methods of bacteriological researches and electronic microscopy were applied. Mares were proved to be one of the reservoirs of infection secreting microbes in environment with genitals fluxes. In this respect, healthy animals as bacteria carriers pose threat of emergence of gynecological diseases. Microbiological landscape of vagina of mares and role of normal vaginal microflora are defined. It has been found that opportunistic pathogenic bacteria prevail with advancing age, level of lactic-acid bacteria is decreased which promotes development of pathological changes in vagina. ER -
