A cross-sectional study on the prevalence of subclinical mastitis and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the bacterial isolates in milk samples of smallholder dairy goats in Kenya
Dairy goat production is an emerging enterprise, which has a lot of potential for poverty alleviation, improved nutrition, and increased income for the poor and can play a role in contribution towards Kenya’s development plan. Inadequate information on prevalence of subclinical mastitis and antibiotic sensitivity are some of the challenges facing this industry. This study was carried out in dai...
متن کاملSubclinical mastitis in goats is associated with upregulation of nitric oxide-derived oxidative stress that causes reduction of milk antioxidative properties and impairment of its quality.
The aim of this study was to verify the existence of a nitric oxide (NO) cycle in goat milk and to study how changes in it affect milk composition during subclinical mastitis. Fifteen lactating dairy goats in which one udder-half was free from bacterial infection and the contra-lateral one was naturally infected with various species of coagulase-negative staphylococci were used. In comparison t...

BACKGROUND Mastitis is the most important and costly disease in dairy goat production. Subclinical mastitis is common in goats and is mainly caused by contagious bacteria. Several methods to diagnose subclinical mastitis are available. In this study indirect measurement of somatic cell count (SCC) by California Mastitis Test (CMT) and direct measurement of SCC using a portable deLaval cell coun...
متن کاملThe influence of intramammary antibiotic treatment, presence of bacteria, stage of lactation and parity in dairy goats as measured by the California Milk Cell Test and somatic cell counts.
The California Milk Cell Test (CMCT) and somatic cell counts (SCC) on their own were not reliable methods in the identification of subclinical mastitis in the dairy goats studied and should be accompanied by microbiological tests. However, CMCT and SCC were indicators of irritation of the udder parenchyma. In healthy goats Spectrazol Milking Cow (Schering-Plough AH) caused the least and Curaclo...
متن کاملIntramammary infections in dairy goats: recent knowledge and indicators for detection of subclinical mastitis
Intramammary infections (IMI) in goats constitute an enormous animal health problem, alter milk composition, lower the hygienic value of milk, impair the processing properties of milk and cause high economical losses in dairy farming today. A great part of IMI in dairy goats can be assigned to the group of subclinical mastitis (SCM) with no outward clinical symptoms. Staphylococci are certainly...
