Captive asian elephants

Genus Lactobacillus was common probiotic key genera in gastro intestinal tracts of domestic animals as well as wild animals. The species compositions of probiotic bacteria are vary depending up on the animal species. The aim of this study was to isolate and molecular identification of genus Lactobacillus from dung samples of captive Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) reared in temples of Tamil Nadu state in India.

The main objective of the present study was isolation and molecular identification of Genus Salmonella in diarrheic captive Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) of Tamil Nadu state. Isolation and identification of Genus Salmonella was carried out in both fresh water and dung samples from diarrhoeic cases of captive elephants (n=8), using culturing method and PCR technique. Out of the dung (n=8) and water (n=8) samples, 25.00% (n=2) of water samples as well as 25.00% (n=2) of the dung samples were found to be positive for Genus Salmonella organisms.

The main objective of the present study was isolation and molecular identification of Escherichia coli in diarrheic captive Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) of Tamil Nadu state. Isolation and identification of E.coli was carried out in both fresh water and dung samples from diarrheic cases of captive elephants (n=8), using standard microbiological culturing method and PCR technique. Out of dung (n=8) and water (n=8) samples, 62.50% (n=5) of water samples as well as 62.50% (n=5) of the dung samples were found to be positive for Escherichia coli.
