Abstract:	Microorganisms isolated from the clinical and sub-clinical cases of bovine mastitis from the mid hills of western Nepal during 1996197, were tested for their in vitro antimicrobial sensitivity by rotary disc diffusion technique. The in vitro antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of the microorganisms showed that Chloramphenicol. Gentamycin, Neomycin and Cephalexin were the most effective antibiotics against most of the isolated microorganisms. While Penicillin-G and Cloxacillin were found highly effective against Gram positive microorganisms, the moderately effective were Tetracycline, Cotramixazole, Streptomycin and Oxytetracycline. These findings will be helpful for the clinicians to decide on the selection of antibiotics for the treatment of bovine mastitis.
