Because of technical limitations, an impact of machine milking on the teat tissue cannot be
avoided. The continuance of this impact during and after milking depends on a variety of …

Milking routines in automatic milking systems (AMS) differ from those in conventional
milking. While milking intervals are constant and teat cups are attached simultaneously in …

Experiments were designed to study compositional differences in colostrum and mature milk
and during the course of milk removal. Fractionized milk samples during the course of …

Anatomical and functional characteristics of the teat are supposed to have considerable
influence on milk flow performance. In the present study, various teat and milking …

Occurrence of milk ejection and course of milk removal were investigated in 18 dairy cows at
milking intervals of 4, 8 and 12 h in early, mid or late lactation. Milk ejection occurred fastest …

The aim of this study was to describe and analyze effects of parity, stage of lactation,
milkability (3 groups of cows with differing peak flow rates), time of milking, and quarter …

Only a small percentage of cisternal milk, usually less than 20 percent is immediately
available for milk removal in dairy cows. Most of the milk, the alveolar milk, is stored in …

Twenty‐nine pairs of high‐yielding dairy cows (HC;≥ 45 kg/day reached at least once
during lactation) and corresponding control cows (CC; with milk yields representing the …

Milk flow parameters at udder and quarter levels were studied in relation to somatic cell
count (SCC) and other risk factors for mastitis (bimodality, duration of decline, and duration …

The goal of the study was to evaluate the composition of leucocyte populations in different
milk fractions as a basis on which to judge their possible role in the immune response in …
