Evaluation of a milk test for detection of subclinical ketosis
Veterinary Quarterly, 1998 This study included 190 lactating cows from eight dairy farms and was designed to investigate the sensitivity and specificity of a milk test (Ketolac) for detecting subclinical ketosis in dairy cattle. Blood and milk samples were collected between 38 and 50 days post partum.

Comparative clinical and haematological investigations in lactating cows with subclinical and clinical ketosis [PDF]
Macedonian Veterinary Review, 2015 Ketosis of lactating cows is among the most common metabolic diseases in modern dairy farms. The economic importance of the disease is caused by the reduced milk yield and body weight loss, poor feed conversion, lower conception rates, culling and ...

Epidemiology of subclinical ketosis in early lactation dairy cattle [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2012 The purpose of this study was to describe the epidemiology of subclinical ketosis (SCK) in dairy cows in early lactation and determine the association of (1) days in milk (DIM) at onset of SCK, and (2) blood β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) concentration at onset of SCK with development of displaced abomasum (DA) and removal from herd in the first 30 DIM ...

Predictive ability of host genetics and rumen microbiome for subclinical ketosis [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2020 Subclinical metabolic disorders such as ketosis cause substantial economic losses for dairy farmers in addition to the serious welfare issues they pose for dairy cows. Major hurdles in genetic improvement against metabolic disorders such as ketosis include difficulties in large-scale phenotype recording and low heritability of traits.

Use of a Combination of Propylene Glycol and Niacin for Subclinical Ketosis
Journal of Dairy Science, 1986 Twenty-six cows that developed positive milk tests for ketosis in early lactation were randomly assigned to one of three groups: control, propylene glycol (125 ml/d), or 125 ml of propylene glycol plus 12 g of niacin daily. Treatments were administered for 7 d.
