Mastitis is inflammation of parenchyma of the mammary gland regardless of the causative agent. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence, risk factors and financial losses caused by mastitis in six small holder dairy farms and the Animal Production and Research Center of the Wollega University. Data was collected through a questionaire on extrinsic and intrinsic risk factors a...

UNLABELLED Bovine mastitis is usually caused by either Gram positive or Gram negative bacteria, reducing the quantity and quality of milk produced. This investigation using capillary electrophoresis and mass spectroscopy, studied peptides in milk from cows with clinical mastitis in comparison to milk from healthy cows to identify biomarkers for mastitis. In addition, the milk peptidome from udd...

Background: Sub-clinical mastitis is an inflammation of mammary glands which is a big economic damage. Treatment of this disease isn’t recommended due to antibiotic residue in milk. Objective: In this study, clinical efficacy of - Zataria multiflora Boiss essential oil (ZMBeo) in treatment of sub-clinical mastitis was evaluated and other expedients were prepared. Methods: Thirty Holsteins cow...

the physiological study was carried out to determine the relation between of risk factors and occurrence of infectious mastitis disease that associated in 453 indigenous dairy cattle in farms nearby the tehran. milk samples were collected for mastitis detection by california mastitis test (cmt) .the analysis of results revealed significant association between body weight, udders depth, teats le...

Mastitis, an inflammation of the mammary gland, is the most widespread health problem of dairy cows, goats and sheep (Bačić et al. 2015., Mačešić et al. 2012). Its prevention and treatment contribute to significant financial loss to the milk producers. New research shows that the total loss due to clinical mastitis in dairy cows is estimatedbetween 110 and 550 litres of milk per lactation, depe...

The literature concerning selection for mastitis resistance in dairy cattle is reviewed and the reasons for including mastitis resistance in dairy cattle breeding programs are described. The current situation in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden is described with emphasis on the data recording schemes and the choice of models used for breeding value estimation. The use of clinical mastitis da...

this study utilized daily records of 2000 egyptian holstein dairy cows. the productive, reproductive and economic data during a whole lactation season were recorded for healthy and mastitis cows. two risk factors for mastitis were included, parity and season of calving. mastitis cows had significant (p

Granulomatous lobular mastitis is a rare inflammatory disease of the breast of unknown etiology. Most present as breast masses in women of child-bearing age. A 29-year-old female presented with a swollen, firm and tender right breast, initially misdiagnosed as mastitis. Core needle biopsy revealed findings consistent with granulomatous lobular mastitis, and cultures were all negative for an inf...

Susceptibility to mastitis is in part determined by genetics. Opportunities exist for genetic improvement of resistance to mastitis but currently available means for genetic selection are limited and focus mainly on EBV for SCC and, in countries with health recording, on EBV for clinical mastitis. Further opportunities exist to incorporate available EBV for udder conformation and milking speed ...

Mastitis is an inflammatory reaction of the udder tissue which is caused by the bacterial infection. Bovine mastitis is one of the devastating disease causing huge loss to the dairy industry worldwide. The present study investigated the current status of clinical and subclinical mastitis among dairy cattle in Dharwad district, Karnataka. The prevalence of mastitis was assessed by surf field mas...
