Differential leukocyte count method for bovine low somatic cell count milk [PDF]
Journal 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.

A First Investigation into the Use of Differential Somatic Cell Count as a Predictor of Udder Health in Sheep [PDF]
Animals, 2023 Differential somatic cell count (DSCC), the percentage of somatic cell count (SCC) due to polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and lymphocytes (LYMs), is a promising effective diagnostic marker for dairy animals with infected mammary glands. Well-explored

Somatic cell count in dairy goats II: udder health monitoring at goat and herd level [PDF]
BMC Veterinary ResearchBackground Mastitis is a costly disease affecting dairy ruminants worldwide. Somatic cell count is the most widely used tool for udder health monitoring but is highly influenced by non-infectious factors in goats.

Characterization of distributions of somatic cell counts [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2009 There is more useful information in distributions of somatic cell count (SCC) than is currently used in practice. Analysis of SCC of individual quarters (n = 450,834 quarter records of 133,102 cows) showed that the presence of pathogens did not change the peak of the SCC distribution.

Neural Network-Aided Milk Somatic Cell Count Increase Prediction [PDF]
Veterinary SciencesSubclinical mastitis (SM) is the most economically damaging yet often visually undetectable disease of dairy cows. Early detection and treatment can reduce the loss caused by the disease; thus, the continuous improvement of SM diagnostic methods is ...

Differential Somatic Cell Count as a Marker for Changes of Milk Composition in Cows with Very Low Somatic Cell Count [PDF]
Animals, 2020 The recent availability of a high-throughput milk analyzer performing a partial differential somatic cell count (DSCC) opened new opportunities in investigations on bovine udder health.

Somatic Cell Count: A Human Breast Wellbeing Indicator
European Journal of Breast Health, 2017 Objective:Human milk is universally accounted as the preeminent source of nutrition for infants. Surprisingly, no approved diagnostic tests are available for the diagnosis of physical condition of the breast.

Differential Somatic Cell Count: Value for Udder Health Management [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020 Intramammary infection (IMI) can cause mastitis, which is one of the costliest and most prevalent diseases in dairy cattle herds. Somatic cell count (SCC) is a well-established parameter to indicate IMI, and it represents the total count of immune cells ...
