Exploring the sources of variation of electrical conductivity and total and differential somatic cell count in Italian Mediterranean buffaloes

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: In the buffalo dairy sector, a huge effort is still needed to improve mastitis prevention, detection, and management. Electrical conductivity (EC) and total somatic cell count (SCC) are well-known indirect indicators of mastitis.

Combining total and differential somatic cell count to screen for mastitis [PDF]

open access: yesActa 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.

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.

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).

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

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

Assessment of the relationship between differential somatic cell count and presence of subclinical mastitis

open access: yesAmerican Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2023
Somatic cell count (SCC) is commonly used for the identifica­tion of cows with subclinical mastitis. Differential somatic cell count (DSCC) represents a novel diagnostic method that allows for the identification and quantification of the different types ...

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.

Usefulness of differential somatic cell count for udder health monitoring: Identifying referential values for differential somatic cell count in healthy quarters and quarters with subclinical mastitis

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Differential leucocyte count for ewe milk with low and high somatic cell count

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Research, 2010
This study was undertaken to compare flow cytometry (FC) and direct microscopic leucocyte count (MDLC) for the differentiation of macrophages, lymphocytes and polymorphonuclear leucocyte (PMN) and to evaluate leucocyte distribution in ewe milk with low ...
