Somatic cell counts are only one of several diagnostic aids which may be used to detect nonclinical mastitis. Whenever possible, they should be used with other diagnostic tests such as milk cultures or ELISA type tests to increase the confidence of the decisions.

Reliability of the bulk milk somatic cell count as an indication of average herd somatic cell count
Journal of Dairy Research, 2009Bulk milk somatic cell count (BMSCC) is a frequently used parameter to estimate the subclinical mastitis prevalence in a dairy herd, but it often differs considerably from the average SCC of all individual cows in milk. In this study, first the sampling variation was determined on 53 dairy farms with a BMSCC ranging from 56 000 to 441 000 cells/ml by ...

Somatic cell count in sheep milk
Small Ruminant Research, 2019Abstract The review reports recent knowledge on the role and significance of somatic cells in sheep mammary gland physiology. Somatic cell count represents an index of animal health status and it is considered an elective standard for the milk quality detection. However, there is still the need to deepen the knowledge on this complex parameter and to

Using Mastitis Records and Somatic Cell Count Data
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2012Developing a records plan useful for managing the complex relationships between environment, personal application of SOP, and protocols that integrates clinical and subclinical udder requires planning the data entry and data reports that interpret the herd without abandoning the individual cow. Then use the data regularly.

Somatic Cell Counting with Silicon Apertures
2000Counting and sizing of biological cells has been used for half a century as a tool in health care and food quality control. This paper describes the employment of a method known as “Coulter sizing” which is based on a small aperture in a membrane. The possibility of microfabrication of silicon provides a cheap and better alternative to current day ...

Interpretating Bulk Tank Somatic Cell Counts
American Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 1986During the past few years veterinarians have begun to appreciate some of the benefits in monitoring bulk tank somatic cell counts (BTSCC). Although it is a measure of milk quality and not udder inflammation, the BTSCC does provide an estimate of the herd udder health. Because there is little confusion as to where cells constituting the BTSCC originate,

Somatic cell counts in bovine milk.
The Canadian veterinary journal = La revue veterinaire canadienne, 2010Factors which influence somatic cell counts in bovine milk are reviewed and guidelines for their interpretation are presented. It is suggested that the thresholds of 300 000 and 250 000 cells/mL be used to identify infected quarters and cows respectively.

DIRECT MICROSCOPIC SOMATIC CELL COUNT IN MILK
Journal of Milk and Food Technology, 1968The Direct Microscopic Somatic Cell Count is a modification of the Breed technique in which 0.01 ml of milk sample is spread over a circular 1 cm2 area on a special slide, and is dried, stained, and examined microscopically using the oil-immersion lens.
