Abstract excerpt
Mycoplasma bovis causes mastitis and respiratory disease, leading to economic losses in the dairy industry. Conventional culture and antimicrobial susceptibility testing require approximately 2 weeks, promoting empirical antimicrobial use and emergence of resistant strains, highlighting the need for rapid detection methods. Resistance-associated mutations have been detected in rrl and rrs (for macrolides,...
