And like many dairy cows, she often has mastitis, a painful udder inflammation, despite receiving antibiotics between lactations. |
|
Milk from cows treated with BGH is likely to contain pus from their udders since the hormone leads to mastitis, or udder infection. |
|
Even if there's milk in the udder, the pregnancy has to have advanced sufficiently to predict foaling. |
|
Julie Morrow-Tesch's experiments with piglets in a maze showed that it was the mother's milk scent on the udder that guided the piglets. |
|
Three to six weeks before foaling, the mare's udder usually begins to develop. |
|
Milk from cows treated with it is likely to contain pus from their udders since the hormone leads to mastitis, or udder infection. |
|
But the automatic machines use lasers to find the udders, and a computer memorizes the configuration of the udder for the next milking. |
|
Cows injected with it are at an increased risk for mastitis, an udder infection that cows producing more milk are more susceptible to. |
|
Constant intervals between the changes in pressure are important to ensure rapid milking and good udder health. |
|
The strong influence of Italian neo-realism is further subverted by such outlandish sights as a boy suckling at a cow's udder and Pedro hurling an egg directly at the camera. |
|
Vitamins are essential nutrients that affect economically important performance traits of dairy cows, including milk production, reproduction, and udder health. |
|
A healthy udder is soft and pliable, and has two well-developed teats. |
|
Around the bend in the path came a soft, pale, velvety nose, attached to a large, prancing, silky brown body bearing a well-filled udder between the hind legs. |
|
For us, human beings, the chief thing about the cow is the milk, which comes from the udder. |
|
Wait until the machine draws all of the milk out of the udder, which will become flaccid as described above. |
|
Unpasteurized milk can also become contaminated if a cow's udder or the milking equipment has traces of bacteria. |
|
During machine milking the milk is sucked out by a difference in pressure between the inner wall of the udder and the liner. |
|
The rate of udder infection is directly related to the number of mastitis-causing bacteria on the teat end. |
|
If you are treating all teats, scrub the teat ends on the far side of the udder first, and then scrub teats on the near side. |
|
It is not always possible to have a single linear point of measurement, as with fore udder attachment and angularity. |
|
|
The liner movement during a pulsation cycle results in milk extraction and udder massage. |
|
Some want to improve their quality of life, others want to have more time for management, or perhaps for improving udder health. |
|
Dairymaster's single use paper dairy wipes are an effective tool in maintaining good udder and pre-milking hygiene. |
|
Disbudding irons are preferred to caustic paste which would require removal of the dam to prevent transfer of paste to the udder. |
|
Apply evenly and as required use the either as a massage gel or as a protective cream for the udder. |
|
Accurate timing of the intervals between changes in vacuum and air pressure is important for rapid milking and good udder health. |
|
Within minutes of leaving the cow's udder it has already been refrigerated to a temperature where it can be properly kept. |
|
It needs to have the pressure released from the udder where the milk is collected. |
|
A mild and effective udder wash with a low acid concentration, considerably less irritating to teats and tissues than other highly acid products. |
|
If a mare is more than 330 days pregnant and has developed a prominent udder with waxing of the teats, she's probably going to foal within 48 to 72 hours. |
|
Brooklyn-based Modern Meadow is developing a lab-grown source of meat and Muufri, in San Francisco, produces milk with nary an udder in sight, employing a genetically modified yeast to churn out the necessary milk proteins. |
|
The Basque separatists portray their plight with the image of a cow: its mouth feeds in Basque territory while its udder rewards those living elsewhere in Spain. |
|
From the discussion above, obviously udder pressure alone is not the only factor regulating milk secretion rate, but also the discussed inhibitor mechanisms. |
|
Furthermore many customers also report better udder health. |
|
When the female calf reaches four to five months old, the mammary cells in the udder start to increase in size. |
|
The pre-treatment udder brush has proven to be the most successful system in terms of animal welfare, hygiene, milk quality and optimal stimulation characteristics. |
|
Furthermore, the udder health and, hence, quality and safety of milk of uninfected animals are at risk if proper control measures are not taken to prevent the spread of contagious mastitis. |
|
The gene for the protein in question is inserted into a goat's egg, and to make sure that it is activated only in udder cells, an extra piece of DNA, known as a beta-caseine promoter, is added alongside it. |
|
The suction device, called a claw, senses when the udder is dry. |
|
However, the ideal situation is a milking machine which is adapted to the variation in milk flow during the complete milking and to the different udder quarters. |
|
|
An efficient grazer, it is known for vigour and efficiency of milk production, superior shape and quality of udder and adaptability to all management systems. |
|
A regulated air cylinder powers the breast rail movement with gentle pressure on the cow's shoulder, positioning her against the rump rail and butt pan for easy udder access. |
|
Milk is extracted from the cow's udder by flexible rubber sheaths known as liners or inflations that are surrounded by a rigid air chamber. |
|
Use regularly in a program of udder hygiene, it will help to control mastitis by reducing new intramammary infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae. |
|
This is expected since the udder may still show some swelling, the body condition may be less than optimal for some time after calving and the cow is likely to be still growing depending on the age at calving. |
|
This prevents the milk from flowing back into the udder. |
|
This results in milk letdown where oxytocin already has started to act on the myoepithelial cells when the milking machine is attached to the udder. |
|
Combining hygiene textile towels with an efficient udder cleaner, helps ensure good cleaning of the teats and udder, plus stimulates milk let-down. |
|
Sometimes, around parturition first calvers suffer from oedema, partly caused by the presence of milk in the udder which compresses the lymphatics, demonstrated in the picture below. |
|
High moisture absorption and ammonia neutralizing properties help keep stall surfaces dry and bacteria levels low, promoting good udder and hoof health. |
|
Bacteria may come from diseased animals or from manure, for example if the teat cup on a milking machine drops off an animal's udder onto the dirty floor. |
|
East of the beach is Udder Delight, a unique St. Thomas dairy serving creamy milkshakes with a dash of Cruzan rum, a longtime local tradition. |
