| dc.description.abstract | In each of the two experiments, subclinical mastitis was induced by inoculating both mammary glands of Karagouniko and of Chios-cross ewes with a Staphylococcus epidermidis. After inoculation, the somatic cell counts of the milk of the inoculated ewes increased (p < 0.01); their milk yield decreased up to 55% (p < 0.01). It is concluded that subclinical mastitis is of particular financial significance in dairy flocks. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. | en |
