Utility of an in-line somatic cell count sensor for selecting cows for dry-cow therapy

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: Minimizing the use of antimicrobials at the end of lactation (dry-cow therapy) requires categorizing cows as being likely infected or uninfected. Although microbiology is the gold standard for such categorization, the cost of such tests means that ...

Use of approved cefazolin based intramammary dry goat treatment and its effects on the milk microbiota

open access: yesScientific Reports
Intramammary dry-off treatment is widely considered an effective method for preventing and curing intramammary infection (IMI) in lactating cows; however, it is not commonly used in small ruminants like goats.

A randomized, controlled trial examining quarter-level somatic cell count and culture-based selective dry cow therapy against blanket dry cow therapy on early lactation production outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science
: The objective of this study was to determine quarters requiring antimicrobial treatment using either a benchtop somatic cell counter or culture with gram-positive selective media and compare the outcomes in these cows to those receiving blanket dry cow

Evaluation of a 3M Petrifilm on-farm milk culture system for use in selective dry cow therapy

open access: yes, 2014
As an alternative to blanket dry cow therapy (BDCT), selective dry cow therapy (SDCT) is considered a more judicious approach to antimicrobial use for the purpose of mastitis control during the non-lactating period.

Intracellular reactive oxygen species production and phagocytosis of Staphylococcus aureus by milk neutrophils as tool to diagnose mastitis and identify susceptible dairy cows

open access: yesPesquisa Veterinária Brasileira
: The immune response capacity of the mammary gland plays a major role to determine if mastitis will or not be established. Thus, we hypothesize that a better understanding of polymorphonuclear neutrophil leukocyte (PMN) function will elucidate ...
