Development of Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy (MIR) Diagnostic Model for Udder Health Status of Dairy Cattle

Animals
The somatic cell count (SCC) and differential somatic cell count (DSCC) are proxies for the udder health of dairy cattle, regarded as the criterion of mastitis identification with healthy, suspicious mastitis, mastitis, and chronic/persistent mastitis ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Intramammary bacterial profile and its impact on the number and differential distribution of somatic cells in the context of drying off in dairy cows

Cluj Veterinary Journal
Mastitis remains one of the most significant conditions in dairy cattle farms, with major consequences for animal health and milk quality. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of intramammary infections (IMI) and to analyze the ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Dynamics of Milk Parameters of Quarter Samples before and after the Dry Period on Czech Farms

Animals, 2023
This study aimed to monitor milk parameters on three different dairy farms in the Czech Republic to describe their readiness for implementing selective dry cow therapy. Fat, protein, casein, lactose, solids-not-fat content, total solids content, freezing

Predicting Somatic Cell Count Standard Violations Based on Herd's Bulk Tank Somatic Cell Count. Part II: Consistency Index [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2008
The present study examines the capability of 1,501 herds in the Upper Midwest and the performance of statistical process control charts and indices as a way of monitoring and controlling milk quality on the farm. For 24 mo, daily or every other day bulk tank somatic cell count (SCC) data were collected. Consistency indices for 5 different SCC standards

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Genetic parameters for milk somatic cell score and relationships with production traits in primiparous dairy sheep [PDF]

, 2007
A total of 13,066 first-lactation test-day records of 2,277 Valle del Belice ewes from 17 flocks were used to estimate genetic parameters for somatic cell scores (SCS) and milk production traits, using a repeatability test-day animal model.
