Economic weights of somatic cell score in dairy sheep [PDF]
Animal, 2007 The economic weights for somatic cell score (SCS) have been calculated using profit functions. Economic data were collected in the Latxa breed. Three aspects have been considered: bulk tank milk payment, veterinary treatments due to high SCS, and culling.

Relationships of conformation traits with somatic cell score in Nubian goats [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2021 Records of 3716 Nubian goats from the United States (US) were analyzed to estimate relationships between fourteen conformation traits (CT) with lactation average somatic cell score (ASCS). To analyze ASCS, a mixed model was implemented.

Somatic Cell Score as Predictor of Daily Milk Yield in Holsteins
Journal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 1998 The purpose of our Study was to determine if variation in milk yield at later Stages of lactation can be explained by expressions of early lactation somatic cell score (SCS) and if the prediction of future yield within lactation can be improved by ...

Polymorphism study of TLR4 gene in crossbred cattle of Kerala [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, 2023 The present study was conducted to identify single nucleotide variations in exon 3 region of the bovine Toll-Like Receptor gene (TLR4) associated with somatic cell score (SCS) in crossbred cattle of Kerala using polymerase chain reaction-single ...

Accuracy and Stability of National and International Somatic Cell Score Evaluations [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2005 Somatic cell score (SCS) evaluations have been published in the United States since 1994 and international evaluations have been available through Interbull since May 2001. The accumulated data provides an opportunity to investigate the accuracy and stability of SCS evaluations.

Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Herd Somatic Cell Score in France [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2006 Spatial and temporal patterns of annual milk somatic cell score (ASCS) were explored in French dairy herds between 1996 and 2000 to detect regional singularities for risk of mastitis. A new cluster detection method was used, which was adapted to continuous variables and which allowed ASCS variation factors to be taken into account. The statistical unit

Genotype by Environment Interaction for Somatic Cell Score Across Bulk Milk Somatic Cell Count and Days in Milk [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2006 The objective of this paper was to investigate the importance of a genotype x environment interaction (G x E) for somatic cell score (SCS) across levels of bulk milk somatic cell count (BMSCC), number of days in milk (DIM), and their interaction. Variance components were estimated with a model including random regressions for each sire on herd test-day
