Abstract

Rate of coliform and streptococcal intramammary infection during the dry period was studied in 168 dry periods. Coliform infection rate was influenced by stage of dry period, parity, and season during which dry periods occurred. Effects of dry cow therapy, immunization, or induced inflammation on coliform infection rate were minimal. Coliform infections originating in the first 50% of the dry period and persisting to lactation were predominantly other than Escherichia coli, whereas the majority originating in the last 50% of the dry period and persisting to lactation were Escherichia coli. Duration of streptococcal infections was greater than coliform infections. Dry cow therapy reduced streptococcal infection rate, and the effect was exerted primarily during the first 25% of the dry period. Effects of parity and season were not significant and likely masked by the positive effects of dry cow therapy. Results support the contention that all quarters of all cows should be dry treated for maximum reduction of new streptococcal infection during the dry period. Results suggest that methods other than conventional dry cow therapy are required for control of coliform infection during the dry period and streptococcal infection during the latter half of the dry period.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
