Combining Genome Wide Association Studies and Differential Gene Expression Data Analyses Identifies Candidate Genes Affecting Mastitis Caused by Two Different Pathogens in the Dairy Cow [PDF]
Mastitis is a costly disease which hampers the dairy industry. Inflammation of the mammary gland is commonly caused by bacterial infection, mainly Escherichia coli, Streptococcus uberis and Staphylococcus aureus.

Effect of the essential oil of Minthostachys verticillata (Griseb.) epling and limonene on biofilm production in pathogens causing bovine mastitis [PDF]
Bovine mastitis causes large annual economic losses around the world. Different microorganisms are associated with the disease. The capacity of pathogens to adhere to bovine mammary epithelial cells is associated with biofilm production which leads to ...

Risk factors and prevention strategies for mastitis in New Zealand dairy heifers : this thesis is completed as a partial requirement for the Masters of Veterinary Studies (Epidemiology) from Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The aims of this thesis were to investigate herd level risk factors for heifer clinical mastitis and to test the efficacy of a pre-calving intervention on prevalence of post-calving IMI, incidence of clinical mastitis and somatic cell count (SCC) in ...

Prevalence of non-aureus Staphylococcus species causing intramammary infections in Canadian dairy herds [PDF]
Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS), the microorganisms most frequently isolated from bovine milk worldwide, are a heterogeneous group of numerous species. To establish their importance as a group, the distribution of individual species needs to be determined.
