Genetic parameters for somatic cell score according to udder infection status in Valle del Belice dairy sheep and impact of imperfect diagnosis of infection [PDF]
Background Somatic cell score (SCS) has been promoted as a selection criterion to improve mastitis resistance. However, SCS from healthy and infected animals may be considered as separate traits.

THE INFLUNCE OF SEASON ON THE CASEIN CONTENT AND HYGIENIC QUALITY OF THE RAW MILK
Increased somatic cell count (SCC) and a total count of microorganism presented as a colony forming units (CFU) in milk are often associated with mastitis in dairy cows.

Polymorphisms in bovine immune genes and their associations with somatic cell count and milk production in dairy cattle [PDF]
peer-reviewedBackground: Mastitis, an inflammation of the mammary gland, is a major source of economic loss on dairy farms. The aim of this study was to quantify the associations between two previously identified polymorphisms in the bovine toll-like ...

OSCILLATION OF SOMATIC CELL COUNT IN MILK OF RECORDED COWS IN SLOVENIA IN YEARS 1997-2007 [PDF]
Oscilacija u broju somatskih stanica (SCC) kod kontroliranih krava proučavana je u Sloveniji u razdoblju od 1997. do 2007. godine. Tijekom 5.267.264 test dana mjerenja su obavljana pretežno za simentalsku (42,4%), zatim za crno-bijelu (37,7%) i smeđu ...

Rheology of the gel formed in the California Mastitis Test [PDF]
The California Mastitis Test has previously been adapted for use in an inline, cow-side sensor and relies on the fact that the viscosity of the gel formed during the test is proportional to the somatic cell concentration.

Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer is dependent on compatible mitochondrial DNA and reprogramming factors [PDF]
Interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer (iSCNT) involves the transfer of a nucleus or cell from one species into the cytoplasm of an enucleated oocyte from another.

Genome-wide associations for milk production and somatic cell score in Holstein-Friesian cattle in Ireland [PDF]
peer-reviewedBackground: Contemporary dairy breeding goals have broadened to include, along with milk production traits, a number of non-production-related traits in an effort to improve the overall functionality of the dairy cow.
