Abstract
Mastitis has been recognized as a major disease affecting the dairy industry, especially in its subclinical form. Subclinical mastitis cause economic losses by decreasing milk production, cost of therapy and unused milk during the withdrawal period. Clinical mastitis can be detected by farmer but subclinical mastitis can only be detected by the measurement of inflammatory components and pathogens in the milk. Since somatic cell count (SCC) in milk has been shown to be an excellent marker for subclinical mastitis it can be used to detect the subclinical mastitis. The prevention of bovine mastitis is the most important component of a mastitis control programme. TANUVAS MASTI Guard will be used as most effective management strategy for preventing new intra mammary infection (IMI). The ingredients present in the spraying solution kill the bacteria present on the teat and controls occurrence of subclinical mastitis.
