Abstract: The purpose of this study was to diagnose, prevention and control the swine infectious diseases in certain pig farm. Disease samples were inoculated on blood agar medium and TSA culture medium for isolating pathogenic bacteria. The isolated strains were identified by biochemistry assay and PCR, and then animal experiment and drug sensitihty test was done. The results showed that the strains were identified as Streptococcus suis serotype 7 with pathogenicity to Mus. Drug sensitivity test showed that they were hypersensitive to enrofloxacin and cefazolin. This result was important for clinic to prevent and treat swine streptococcicosis.

Key words: Streptococcus suis serotypes 7; isolation; identification
