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

open access: bronzeJournal 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.

Integrative Multivariate Analysis of Milk Biomarkers, Productive Performance, and Animal Welfare Indicators in Dairy Cows [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals
Animal welfare is increasingly recognised as a core component of sustainable dairy production, yet objective assessment at the herd level remains challenging.

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

open access: bronzeJournal 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),

Machine Learning Approach for Early Lactation Mastitis Diagnosis Using Total and Differential Somatic Cell Counts [PDF]

open access: goldAnimals
Dairy herds around the world are undergoing several changes. Herd sizes are increasing, as are both milk yield and quality. The implementation of new technologies in various domains of dairy production is leading to an increase in the quantity of data available.

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

open access: greenAmerican 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 of inflammatory cells in milk samples (neutrophils (NEU), lym­phocytes (LYM) and macrophages (MAC ...

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

open access: bronzeJournal of Dairy Science, 2019
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.

Total and differential bulk cow milk somatic cell counts and their relation with antioxidant factors

open access: greenComptes Rendus. Biologies, 2007
In the present study, the relationship between total bulk milk somatic cell counts (BMSCC), differential BMSCC (macrophage, lymphocyte, and polymorphonuclear leukocytes), and antioxidant enzymes was investigated. Forty-three samples of bulk milk were selected randomly from eight dairy farms in the region of Sfax (Tunisia) in winter,

Advantages and Challenges of Differential Immune Cell Count Determination in Blood and Milk for Monitoring the Health and Well-Being of Dairy Cows

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
A key challenge of the 21st century will be to provide the growing world population with a sustainable and secure supply of food. Consequently, the dairy farming’s primary task is to lower milk losses and other inefficiencies associated with diseased ...

Udder health-related traits in cow milk: phenotypic variability and effect on milk yield and composition

open access: yesAnimal, 2023
The milk differential somatic cell count (DSCC) has been proposed in recent years as a mean by which to better monitor the udder health status (UHS) in dairy cows.

Cut‐off value of somatic cell count and validation of differential somatic cell count by the fluoro‐optical method in subclinical mastitis milk in three sheep breeds [PDF]

open access: hybridInternational Journal of Dairy Technology
Somatic cell count (SCC) is a test used for mastitis control in ewes, but there is no consensus on the cut‐off value. Other markers of subclinical mastitis (SCM) have been proposed as potentially more efficient, sensitive and specific, such as differential somatic cell count (DSCC).
