A method for indicating a health condition, e.g. incidence of mastitis, of a milking animal on-line during milking of the milking animal, comprises the steps of measuring the concentration of a specified ion, e.g. Na<+>, K<+>, H<+>, or Cl<->, in the milk as drawn from an udder quarter or udder of the milking animal during the milking by means of an ion-selective sensor (40); comparing the concentration of the specified ion with a reference concentration value; and indicating a health condition, i.e. incidence of mastitis, of the milking animal depending on the outcome of the comparison. |
