Changes in Antimicrobial Component Concentrations in Goat Milk Following Intramammary Lipopolysaccharide Administration. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Mastitis is a major cause of economic losses in dairy production; however, its prevention and treatment remain challenging. Under field conditions, antimicrobial drugs are frequently administered when somatic cell counts (SCCs) are elevated and signs of inflammation are observed, even in the absence of detectable pathogens in milk.

Transmission dynamics of intramammary infections caused by Corynebacterium species [PDF]
The development of reliable models for transmission of intramammary infections (IMI) is the subject of extensive research. Such models are useful to enhance the identification and understanding of factors that affect pathogen-specific IMI dynamics. Longitudinal transmission models are valuable for predicting infection outbreak risks, quantifying the ...
