Abstract in English
Thirty native Awassi yearlings, without previous pregnancy or servicing
were used to study the level of somatic cell counts (SCC) in milk and their
relation to the other methods for detection of subclinical mastitis during the
first lactation .
These results confirmed that SCC in milk and CMT can be used as reliable
methods for detecting subclinical mastitis in Awassi ewes . ER and percentage
of lactose are less accurate than CMT in detection of subclinical mastitis.
