Severity of experimental escherichia-coli mastitis in ketonemic and nonketonemic dairy-cows. [PDF]
, 1993 The severity of experimental Escherichia coli mastitis in relation to in vitro chemotaxis of polymorphonuclear leukocytes was investigated in cows during negative energy balance. The negative energy balance was induced by feed restriction.

Decreased neutrophil bactericidal activity during phagocytosis of a slime-producing Staphylococcus aureus strain. [PDF]
, 2000 Phagocytosis and intracellular killing by bovine polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) are important host defence mechanisms against mastitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus. We compared the phagocytosis and overall killing of a non slime-producing (NSP) S.
