Currently, somatic cell count (SCC) and bacterial culture are considered as the gold standard of detecting subclinical Mastitis. Mastitis leads to proliferation of lymphocytes in the supramammary lymph nodes and subsequent enlargement of ipsilateral lymph node. Ultrasonography can be used to survey these changes. A portable ultrasound machine with a 2-5 MHz convex transducer was used to identif...

Milk and supramammary lymph node samples were obtained from asymptomatic cows infected with Mycobacterium paratuberculosis at the time of slaughter. Of 81 supramammary lymph node samples, 22 (27%) were culture positive for M. paratuberculosis. Of 77 milk samples, 9 (11.6%) were culture positive. The prevalence of supramammary lymph node or milk infection was highest with heavy fecal shedding of...

Conventional typing, oxidative metabolic, and virulence tests were conducted on a phage-resistant Brucella abortus strain isolated from the supramammary lymph node of a cow.

BACKGROUND Mastitis is considered the most significant and persistent disease in dairy cows, bringing about large economic losses. Subclinical mastitis brings about major cost implications, for it is difficult to detect due to absence of any visible indications and can persist in the mammary tissue throughout lactation. Immunomodulators have been widely used to reduce intramammary infections by...

The demand to camel’s (Camelus dromedaries) milk is increasing worldwide. The new advances in the dairy industry have made the camel milk production on the commercial level is possible. The camel mammary glands immune system is not explored in detail. This study was conducted to identify the cell adhesion molecules involved in the regulation of the cells trafficking to the camel mammary glands ...

lymph node dissection is of prime importance for accurate staging of colorectal carcinomas. since a great number of small lymph nodes are missed in the traditional method, several fat clearing solutions have been introduced for easier detection of smaller lymph nodes. in this study we evaluated the efficacy of a new fat clearing solution so-called lymph node revealing solution (lnrs) in colecto...
