Deterministic model to evaluate the impact of lactational treatment of subclinical mastitis due to coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are the most frequently isolated bacteria from milk samples in several studies worldwide. Despite their relative frequency, specific measures aiming at their control are not well established. One possible measure to
