Cell Differentiation of Bovine Milk Control Samples to Improve Prognosis of Mastitis Cure

Antibiotics, 2022
To optimise udder health at the herd level, identifying incurable mastitis cases as well as providing an adequate therapy and culling strategy are necessary. Cows with clinical mastitis should be administered antibiotic medication if it is most likely to

Hyperketonemia Predictions Provide an On-Farm Management Tool with Epidemiological Insights

Animals, 2021
Prediction of hyperketonemia (HYK), a postpartum metabolic disorder in dairy cows, through use of cow and milk data has allowed for high-throughput detection and monitoring during monthly milk sampling.

Cytospin Centrifuge in Differential Counts of Milk Somatic Cells

Journal of Dairy Science, 1982
A procedure was developed for a cytospin centrifuge to concentrate cells from milk onto microscope slides in a circle with 6 mm diameter. Differential somatic cell counts with cytospin were compared to the conventional hand smearing technique to ascertain variation in differential counts.

Dynamics of somatic cell count (SCC) and differential SCC during and following intramammary infections

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.

Assessment of subclinical mastitis diagnostic accuracy by differential cell count in individual cow milk

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.

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

Preventive 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.

How heat stress conditions affect milk yield, composition, and price in Italian Holstein herds

Journal of Dairy Science, 2023
: An edited data set of 700 bulk and 46,338 test-day records collected between 2019 and 2021 in 42 Holstein-dominated farms in the Veneto Region (North of Italy) was available for the present study.

Factors Affecting the Patterns of Total Amount and Proportions of Leukocytes in Bovine Milk

Animals, 2020
Differential leukocyte count (DSCC) in milk is considered important to improve knowledge of udder immune response. The investigations on milk DSCC were limited by the techniques available until recently, when a high-throughput tool to perform DSCC opened

Heritability and genetic correlations of total and differential somatic cell count with milk yield and composition traits in Italian Simmental cows

Journal of Dairy Science, 2023
: Costs of production have deeply increased each year in the last decades, breeders are continuously looking for more cost effective and more efficient ways to produce milk.

Integration of Differential and Total Somatic Cell Counts for Udder Health Classification: Association with Milk Lactose Concentration

Cluj Veterinary Journal
Mastitis is one of the most important diseases in dairy cattle, impairing milk yield, composition, and animal welfare. Somatic cell count (SCC) is the traditional indicator of udder health, but it does not provide information on leukocyte composition ...
