Healthy conjunctival sacs of 88 animals of 3 species of captive camelids (Lama glama, Lama guanicoe, Lama pacos) and llama-guanaco hybrids were sampled for bacterial and mycoplasmal flora. Mycoplasmas were not isolated from any animal. Eleven genera of bacteria were isolated. The most frequent isolates were Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas spp. Nine varieties of Pseudomonas were found, which represented at least 3 Pseudomonas species. Many of the bacterial isolates (especially the pseudomonads) are potential pathogens in the eyes of these camelids.
对3种圈养骆驼科动物（小羊驼、原驼、羊驼）的88只动物的健康结膜囊进行采样，以检测细菌和支原体菌群。未从任何动物中分离出支原体。分离出了11个细菌属。最常见的分离菌是表皮葡萄球菌和假单胞菌属。发现了9种假单胞菌，它们至少代表3个假单胞菌物种。许多细菌分离株（尤其是假单胞菌）在这些骆驼科动物眼中是潜在病原体。
