Differential Somatic Cell Count as a Marker for Changes of Milk Composition in Cows with Very Low Somatic Cell Count [PDF]
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.

: Udder health in dairy herds is a very important issue given its implications for animal welfare and the production of high-quality milk. Somatic cell count (SCC) is the most widely used means of assessing udder health status.

Differential Somatic Cell Count: Value for Udder Health Management [PDF]
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 ...

Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy-Somatic Cell Count as a Method for Diagnosis of Bovine Mastitis [PDF]
Simple Summary Mastitis is inflammation/swelling in the breast, which is generally caused by an infection. In this study, we present scanning electrochemical microscopy-somatic cell count (SECM-SCC) as a novel method for diagnosis of mastitis in bovines.

Differential Somatic Cell Count as a Novel Indicator of Milk Quality in Dairy Cows
Recent available instruments allow to record the number of differential somatic cell count (DSCC), representing the combined proportion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and lymphocytes, on a large number of milk samples.

Somatic Cell Count in Goat Milk: An Indirect Quality Indicator [PDF]
A high somatic cell count (SCC) impacts dairy quality to a large extent. The goal of this work was to investigate differences in goat milk composition and technological parameters according to SCC cut-off (600, 700, 800, and 1000.103/mL).

Associations between bovine lactoferrin gene polymorphism and somatic cell count in milk
The study included 124 Polish Black-and-White dairy cows of various share of the Holstein-Friesian (HF) breed. Lactoferrin (LTF) gene polymorphism was obtained with PCR-RFLP method using EcoRI enzyme.

Simple Summary Reducing the incidence of mastitis is one of the primary objectives of dairy farms. Currently, new rapid diagnostic methods, both direct (culture) and indirect, are being introduced; these methods serve to detect the number of somatic ...

Physiological Aspects of Milk Somatic Cell Count in Small Ruminants—A Review
The aim of this review was to focus on the physiological aspects of milk somatic cell count (SCC) in small ruminants (SM). The SCC is an important component naturally present in milk and is generally used as an indicator of milk quality and udder health ...

Simple Summary Mastitis is the most prevalent disease of dairy cattle that causes significant economic losses. Different agents cause mastitis which leads to increased somatic cell count (SCC) and low milk quality.
