Somatic Cell Count, Importance and Effect Factors in Dairy Cattle
Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2014 The somatic cell count (SCC) is commonly used as a measure of udder health and milk quality. Thus, to determine the milk quality standards in many countries, it legally determined as an indicator of somatic cell count raw milk and determines the level of
