摘要
The dairy practitioner has a special opportunity to influence both the types and quality of mastitis microbiology diagnostic services to support his or her practice. Recommended good laboratory practices, including rigorous use of secondary confirmation testing, specialty selective culture media, and strategic use of enhancement techniques, can significantly impact both sensitivity and specificity of mastitis pathogen detection. Natural variation in shedding patterns of various mastitis pathogens from infected quarters will influence these choices. Bulk tank culture, routine monitoring for contagious pathogens at freshening, and culture based treatment decisions, should be standard service recommendations for all dairymen.
