Abstract: This study was planned to investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance of pathogens involve in cow endometritis,which will be helpful to guide clinical rational drug use.All 47 cow endometritis samples collected from three large-scale farms located in Lanzhou were used to isolate and identify pathogens. Besides,K-B paper disk method was performed to measure the antibiotic resistance of the four isolates. The results demonstrated that Arcanobacterium pyogenes (37.1%),Escherichia coli (24.2%),Enterococcus faecium (22.6%) and Streptococcus agalactiae (16.1%) were the predominent agent causing cow endometritis in Lanzhou.In addition,the four pathogens were resistant to penicillin,sulfamethoxazole compound,ofoxacin and bacitracin,and the drug resistance rates reached 60% to 100%. However,These pathogens were sensitive to ceftazidime,cephalothin V and florfenicol,and the antibiotic sensitive rates were 100%.
