Blood antioxidant profile and lipid peroxides in dairy cows with clinical mastitis

Aim: To evaluate blood antioxidant profile and lipid peroxides in dairy cows with clinical mastitis. Materials and Methods: Twelve cases of clinical mastitis in cross-bred cows were selected based on physical examination of udder and milk, California Mastitis Test (CMT), Somatic Cell Count (SCC) and confirmation by bacteriological examination 5 of milk and requisite biochemical tests. Twelve la...

Prototheca Mastitis in Dairy Cows

Effects of dairy Products on Fasting Blood Glucose, Insulin Resistance, Blood Pressure, and Lipid Profile in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial

Introduction: This randomized controlled clinical trial aimed to investigate the effects of dairy product consumption on fasting blood glucose, insulin resistance, blood pressure, and lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes. Materials and Methods: Ninety-one diabetic patients were randomly assigned to one of the following three groups: group A, <1 serving of dairy products per day; group...

Role of antioxidant vitamins and trace elements in mastitis in dairy cows

Mastitis is associated with release of free radicals, increased total oxidant capacity and decreased total antioxidants capacity in milk. Antioxidant vitamins and minerals protect the body from free radicals either by directly scavenging free radicals or by inhibiting the activity of oxidizing enzymes. The supplementation of mastitic dairy cows with antioxidant vitamins as vitamin A (VA) and βc...

Fractionized milk composition in dairy cows with subclinical mastitis

Mastitis is the inflammatory reaction of the udder to invading pathogens. One of the most apparent reactions is the increased influx of immunoreactive cells from blood into milk inducing a dramatic increase of milk somatic cell counts (SCC). We have investigated (i) the relationship between log SCC/ml in infected quarters being >6 (n = 8, group I) or varying between 5.4 and 6 (n = 8, group II) ...
