Abstract: The study involved the isolation of enterococcus bacteria and diagnosis of different types of diseases, where (190) samples of cows suffering from different diseases were obtain (34) (18.1%) isolation of Enterococcus were divided into 21 (15.6% ) Of the blood, 8 (52.4%) and 3 (17.6%) of the vagina, but not isolated from the spinal cord samples. The study was conducted on 2 isolates from the blood samples to become the number of isolates (36 isolates). And the study showed that type E. Faecalis was the most common species, with 75% followed by E. faecium (20.2%) and E.galinarium (4.8%), which also revealed the virulence factors of these bacteria, which play an important role in their disease. Bacteria have the ability to produce Haemolysin, Protease, Lipase, β-Lactamase, and the formation of capsules and their ability of Haemagglutination and of the effect of mannos on this process.
