Diagnosis· 根據(jù)SCC，臨床癥狀和乳的細(xì)菌培養(yǎng)
Based on SCC, clinical signs and milk culture 鑒別診斷
Differential Diagnosis
其他原因引起的乳房炎 Other causes of mastitis
實(shí)驗(yàn)室和病理學(xué)診斷Laboratory and Pathology · 如果牛群有問題，大批乳桶的SCC升高
If herd problem, elevated bulk tank SCC · 引起單個(gè)感染牛只的SCC顯著升高
Causes marked increase of SCC in individually infected cows · 利用SCC鑒別感染牛，然后用CMT鑒別感染乳區(qū)
Utilize SCC to identify infected cows then use CMT to identify infected quarter
肯定感染乳區(qū)做細(xì)菌培養(yǎng)以區(qū)分其他鏈球菌和葡萄球菌
Culture infected quarter-must differentiate from other Streptococcus and Staphylococcus 治療
Treatment· 無乳鏈球菌對(duì)抗生素敏感，包括青霉素
Streptococcus agalactiae is sensitive to antibiotics including Penicillin · 在泌乳期，用Blitz治療所有感染牛
Blitz treat all infected cows during lactation

Prognosis· 治療有效的，預(yù)后良好，可從牛群中消滅
Good for response to treatment and elimination from the herd 預(yù)防
Prevention & Control
阻止傳播是基本的預(yù)防措施Stopping transmission is the basis of control擠奶程序和衛(wèi)生設(shè)備

Time from 2 to 7 should be 60 to 90 seconds
避免過度擠奶 Avoid over-milking
浸泡乳頭可以傳送排乳信號(hào)
Teat dip post milking · 檢驗(yàn)并套上擠奶器 Test and maintain milking machines · 在干乳期，每頭奶牛的每個(gè)乳區(qū)都要干燥 Dry cow treat every quarter of every cow at dry off · 淘汰慢性感染牛只 Cull chronically infected cows · 治療所有的臨床性乳房炎病例 Treat all cases of clinical mastitis · 隔離所有的感染牛只及其牛乳 Isolate all infected cows and milk last · 擠感染牛奶后，要消毒奶杯 Sterilize clusters after milking infected cows · 保持一個(gè)封閉的牛群 Maintain a closed herd
