<p>Testing procedures for milking animals whereby a milk flow has a sample flow diverted therefrom which is then tested for somatic cell count indicative of mastitis. Such testing of the diverted flow is automatic and involves a measure of viscosity change in the sample after the addition of an anionic detergent which causes gelling to an extent determined by the somatic cell count. As a consequence calibratable data from each milking animal can be generated and used as a comparative tool between animals and/or to monitor changes in the somatic cell count (SCC) of individual animals between milkings.</p> |
