In this article the use of somatic cell counts for monitoring udder health and milk quality is
discussed. Somatic cell count dynamics at quarter, cow, herd and population level are …

Bovine mastitis is an important animal production disease that affects the dairy industry
globally. Studies have estimated the prevalence of this disease in approximately 30% of …

Somatic cell count (SCC) is used as key indicator in mastitis screening programs typically
applied in the frame of Dairy Herd Improvement (DHI) testing programs. However, mastitis is …

Intramammary infection (IMI) can cause mastitis, which is one of the costliest and most
prevalent diseases in dairy cattle herds. Somatic cell count (SCC) is a well-established …

Whereas many differential leukocyte count methods for high somatic cell count (SCC) milk
from mastitic cows are available, only a few have been developed for low SCC milk. We …

Somatic cell counts (SCC) are generally used as an indicator of udder health. In Germany, a
cutoff value of 100,000 cells/mL is currently used to differentiate between healthy and …

Cell counting in fluorescence microscopy is an essential task in biomedical research for
analyzing cellular dynamics and studying disease progression. Traditional methods for cell …

Changes in relative cell proportions occurring in diseased mammary glands of dairy cows
can be determined using differential cell count (DCC). The present study was carried out in 2 …

We analyzed a large number of immune response parameters from quarter milk samples
with distinct bacteriological and quarter somatic cell count (qSCC) statuses. Furthermore, we …

Subclinical mastitis is a costly disease and its diagnosis is difficult. Besides the somatic cell
count (SCC) and bacteriology, the differential inflammatory cell count (DICC) is a meaningful …
