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.

Mastitis, result of intramammary infections, exhibits serious economic problem in dairy sector due to the loss in milk yield and quality. Clinical and subclinical occurrence are common where subclinical cases are asymptomatic and need additional diagnostic tools for identification. Somatic cell counts (SCCs) in raw milk are an

Association of Milk Somatic Cell Count with Bacteriological Cure of Intramammary Infection—A Review
Mastitis is a costly disease in dairy cattle as a result of decreased milk production, discarded milk, and other economic drivers such as treatment costs.

Distribution of somatic cell count and udder pathogens in Norwegian dairy goats.
Compared with dairy cows, goat somatic cell count (SCC) is higher and probably more affected by physiological factors such as parity, stage of lactation, and season. Thus, SCC is believed to be a less precise indicator of intramammary infections in dairy

Systemic inflammatory biomarkers and somatic cell count in dairy cows with subclinical mastitis
Systemic parameters and its relationship with Somatic Cell Count (SCC) in dairy cows were evaluated. Cows that presented subclinical mastitis (SMC; n = 16) and healthy cows (HC; n = 6) were selected and identified by the California Mastitis Test and SCC ...

Milk quality in small farms from Southern Region of Brazil [PDF]
: This study aimed to evaluates some physical chemical aspects of chilled raw milk that meet Brazilian quality standards in smallholder farms from southern Region of Brazil. The fat content, crude protein (CP), total solids (TS), somatic cell count (SCC),

Monitoring Milk Somatic Cell Counts [PDF]
The presence of somatic cells in milk is a widely disputed issue in milk production sector. The somatic cell counts in raw milk are a marker for the specific cow diseases such as mastitis or swollen udder. The high level of somatic cells causes physical and chemical changes to milk composition and nutritional value, and as well to milk products.

The influence of TLR4 gene polymorphisms on milk quality and composition of Lithuanian Holstein cows
This study investigated bovine TRL4 gene c.9421C>T, c.2021C>T and c.-10C>T polymorphisms and their relationship with somatic cell count and indicators of milk composition. Blood samples were collected from 152 Lithuanian Holstein dairy cows.

A Practical Application of Genomic Predictions for Mastitis Resistance in Italian Holstein Heifers
Heifers are a fundamental resource on farms, and their importance is reflected in both farm management and economy. Therefore, the selection of heifers to be reared on a farm should be carefully performed to select only the best animals.
