Total and Differential Somatic Cell Count in Italian Local Cattle Breeds: Phenotypic Variability and Effect on Milk Yield and Composition [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Milk differential somatic cell count (DSCC) represents the percentage of polymorphonuclear neutrophils and lymphocytes out of the total somatic cell count (SCC) and has been proposed in recent years as a proxy for udder health in dairy cows.

Differential Leukocyte Count Method for Bovine Low Somatic Cell Count Milk [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2003
Whereas many differential leukocyte count methods for high somatic cell count (SCC) milk from mastitic cows are available, only a few have been developed for low SCC milk. We have developed a flow cytometric differential leukocyte count method for low SCC milk. The procedure consists of 1) 1.5 ml of diluted milk sample (30%, vol/vol dilution with PBS),

Somatic (CSS) and differential cell count (DCC) during a lactation period in ass’milk [PDF]

open access: yesItalian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
Hypoallergenic properties of ass’s milk protein fractions have been recently con- firmed, allowing ass’s milk to be considered as a valid substitute of the available hypoallergenic infant formulas.

Genetic Parameters of Bovine Milk Fatty Acid Profile, Yield, Composition, Total and Differential Somatic Cell Count [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
The growing interest of consumers for milk and dairy products of high nutritional value has pushed researchers to evaluate the feasibility of including fatty acids (FA) in selection programs to modify milk fat profile and improve its nutritional quality.

Usefulness of differential somatic cell count for udder health monitoring: Association of differential somatic cell count and somatic cell score with quarter-level milk yield and milk components

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: Mastitis is the most common disease affecting dairy cattle and is associated with substantial milk loss. Somatic cell count has been widely used as an indicator of udder inflammation (e.g., subclinical mastitis).

Differential somatic cell count as an additional indicator for intramammary infections in dairy cows [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2020
Mastitis, often caused by intramammary infection (IMI), is a significant problem in dairy farming globally. Somatic cell count (SCC) is widely used as a parameter for screening IMI in cows that are then treated or culled. We investigated the potential of a new parameter, differential SCC (DSCC), to detect IMI at cow level when SCC is already known.

Usefulness of differential somatic cell count for udder health monitoring: Diagnostic performance of somatic cell count and differential somatic cell count for diagnosing intramammary infections in dairy herds with automated milking systems

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: Mastitis poses significant economic challenges for dairy farms. Therefore, enhancing the accuracy of diagnostic methods for detecting IMI can potentially improve prevention, control, and treatment strategies. The SCC is a well-established parameter for

Investigation of dairy cow performance in different udder health groups defined based on a combination of somatic cell count and differential somatic cell count

open access: yesPreventive Veterinary Medicine, 2020
Mastitis is still the costliest disease in milk production. In particular, its subclinical form, which may spread unnoticeably within a herd, is a major challenge. Somatic cell count (SCC) is broadly used as an indicator for mastitis and thus the basis for udder health management programmes, e.g. through dairy herd improvement (DHI) testing.

A Study on Differential Biomarkers in the Milk of Holstein Cows with Different Somatic Cells Count Levels

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Dairy cow mastitis is one of the common diseases of dairy cows, which will not only endanger the health of dairy cows but also affect the quality of milk. Dairy cow mastitis is an inflammatory reaction caused by pathogenic microorganisms and physical and

Risk factors of high somatic cell count and differential somatic cells in early lactation associated with selective dry cow therapy

open access: yesAnimal, 2023
The routine use of intramammary antimicrobial products in all dairy cows at the beginning of the dry period is no longer allowed in European Union (EU) countries due to the new Regulation (EU) 2019/6 to reduce antimicrobial resistance.
