Trueperella pyogenes was isolated froma dog and a cat with a mixed infection with Brucella abortus. Both lived on a dairy cattle farm\nwith a history of regular cases of abortion andmastitis. Identification of the bacteria was done by means of MALDI-TOFMS, loopmediated\nis o thermal amplification (LAMP) based on cpn60, partial 16S rRNA sequencing, and growth on Loeffler Serum Medium.\nIsolation of Trueperella pyogenes on the dairy farm highlights its neglected role in reproduction failure and draws attention to its\neffects in the dairy industry in Egypt. Diagnosis and control of abortion in Egypt should include Trueperella pyogenes as one of\npossible causes of abortion.
