Two Pseudomonas strains, identified as closely related to Pseudomonas tolaasii, were isolated from milk of a farm with frequent false-positive Delvotest results for screening putative antibiotic residues in raw milk executed as part of the regulatory quality programme. Growth at 5 to 7°C of these isolates in milk resulted in high lipolysis and the production of bacterial inhibitors. The two mai...

Mastitis is a dairy farm disease which causes important loss for dairy industry. Mastitis control is permanent challenge for dairy farm [1]. Milk loss link to mastitis was assessed to reach 17% of world milk production [1]. In Burkina Faso, this loss is not assessed and remains unknown area. It is well known that the most spread mastitis is subclinical which has considerable impact on farm and ...

Introduction Mastitis is the most frequent and costly disease of dairy cattle. Losses due to mastitis can be attributed to both subclinical and clinical disease. Clinical mastitis losses are generally readily apparent and consist of discarded milk, transient reductions in milk yield and premature culling (Fetrow, 2000). Subclinical mastitis is considered the most economically important type of ...

This paper is based on the previous work of Appelbaum (Journal of Econometrics, 1979, 9, pp. 283± 94; 1982, 19, pp. 287± 99). Iwata (Econometrics 1974, 42, pp. 947± 66) and Rogers (PhD Dissertation, George Washington University, 1983). We estimate the degree of market power of an oligopolistic industry, using a linear system and the 2SLS estimation method. Our departure point is the work of App...

In this work, the application of the flotation technique by dissolved air (FAD) to the treatment of milk industry effluent (milky effluent) is analyzed. Initially, batch studies were carried out in a column built of acrylic with an external diameter of 2.5 cm and 50 cm in height. Afterwards, the performance of a flotation tank with a 5.5 L capacity in the treatment of the milky effluent was add...

Federal dairy programs have been instituted to assist dairy farmers in marketing their milk. Milk marketing licenses were issued for city markets in 1933 during the depression. Federal Milk Orders replaced licenses in 1937 with enactment of the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act. Low prices returned in the late 1940s and Congress passed the Agricultural Act of 1949 creating the support progra...

Sulfonamides (SAs) represent a significant category of pharmaceutical compounds due to their effective antimicrobial characteristics. SAs were the first antibiotics to be used in clinical medicine to treat a majority of diseases, since the 1900s. In the dairy farming industry, sulfa drugs are administered to prevent infection, in several countries. This increases the possibility that residual d...

Australia is an island continent in which both the levels of industrialization and the population density are relatively low. For the most part, the population base and industry is concentrated along the south eastern coastline. Information regarding the levels of PBDEs in the Australian environment and population is limited and this study represents the first investigation in pooled human milk...

1 The lactation consultant says, "You have the chance to provide your baby with the best possible start in life, through the special bond of breastfeeding. The wonderful advantages to you and your baby will last a lifetime." And then the mother bottle-feeds. Why? In part because that sales pitch could just as easily have come from a commercial baby milk pamphlet. When our phrasing and that of t...
