Journal of Dairy Science, 2021 Somatic cell count is frequently used as an indicator of intramammary infections (IMI) in dairy cattle worldwide. The newly introduced differential SCC (DSCC) can potentially contribute to detection of IMI. The purpose of this study was to investigate the dynamics of SCC and DSCC after IMI.

Combining total and differential somatic cell count to better assess the association of udder health status with milk yield, composition and coagulation properties in cattle [PDF]
Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2020 The combined use of somatic cell count (SCC) and differential somatic cell count (DSCC), which is the ratio of neutrophils plus lymphocytes to total milk SCC, represents a novel approach to define cow’s udder health status, as it allows to identify ...

Combining total and differential somatic cell count to screen for mastitis [PDF]
Acta Fytotechnica et Zootechnica, 2020 Somatic cell count (SCC) has been extensively used as indicator of udder health and milk quality. Recent developments in milk-testing technology have led to cell differentiation in milk in a high throughput manner.

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2019 The progressive decrease of mean SCC in dairy herds worldwide is affecting SCC accuracy as a subclinical mastitis marker. This evidence supports studies aiming to apply differential cell count (DSCC) as a tool to identify mastitis.

Journal of Dairy Science: Mastitis, an inflammation of the udder primarily caused by an IMI, is one of the most common diseases in dairy cattle. Somatic cell count has been widely used as an indicator of udder inflammation, assisting in the detection of subclinical mastitis ...

Preventive Veterinary Medicine, 2019 The objective of this study was to investigate the new differential somatic cell count (DSCC) as a supplementary indicator to SCC for the identification of intramammary infection (IMI) in dairy cows at the end of the lactation period. Different approaches for identification of cows with IMI (i.e. often based on SCC) and targeted antimicrobial treatment

Pathogen and severity-dependent immune responses in bovine mastitis: highlight the dynamics of differential somatic cell count. [PDF]
J Vet Med SciImmune 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 ...

Short communication: Repeatability of differential goat bulk milk culture and associations with somatic cell count, total bacterial count, and standard plate count [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2010 The aims of this study were to assess how different bacterial groups in bulk milk are related to bulk milk somatic cell count (SCC), bulk milk total bacterial count (TBC), and bulk milk standard plate count (SPC) and to measure the repeatability of bulk milk culturing.
