The dissertation considers the peculiarities of Staphylococcosis course in quails, bacterial dissemination of poultry houses, the relation of Staphylococcus aureus and its percentages to Staphylococcosis outbreaks quails, susceptibility of quails to natural and artificial infection, investigation of biological properties of Staphylococcus aureus and monitoring its sensitivity to antibiotics in order to make use the best drags for treatment and prophylaxis of Staphylococcosis in quails.
