PLoS ONE, 2022 Mastitis is a most common disease of dairy cows and causes tremendous economic loss to the dairy industry worldwide. Somatic cell counts (SCC) reflect the inflammatory response to infections and is a metric used as key indicator in mastitis screening ...

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 [PDF]
Journal 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).

Direct labeling of milk cells without centrifugation for counting total and differential somatic cells using flow cytometry [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2022 : Somatic cell count (SCC) in milk is an essential indicator for defining and managing udder health. However, analyzing differential SCC (dSCC) can be helpful in determining the type or evolution stage of mastitis.

A First Investigation into the Use of Differential Somatic Cell Count as a Predictor of Udder Health in Sheep [PDF]
Animals, 2023 Differential somatic cell count (DSCC), the percentage of somatic cell count (SCC) due to polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and lymphocytes (LYMs), is a promising effective diagnostic marker for dairy animals with infected mammary glands. Well-explored

Pathogen and severity-dependent immune responses in bovine mastitis: highlight the dynamics of differential somatic cell count. [PDF]
J Vet Med Sci, 2023 Immune responses in bovine clinical mastitis (CM) probably differ depending on the causative pathogen and disease severity. The observational study aimed to investigate whether both factors are associated with the dynamics of immune indicators, including somatic cell score (SCS), white blood cell count (WBC), serum albumin/globulin (A/G) ratio, and ...
