The samples were delivered in Veterinary laboratory in Križevci during a routine mastitis diagnostics. Milk samples were cultured on Columbia agar (Merck, KgaA, Darmstadt, Germany) with 5 % ovine blood, Sabouraud 4 % maltose agar (Merck, KgaA, Darmstadt, Germany) and Rice extract agar (Merck, KgaA, Darmstadt, Germany).
