The objectives of the study were to use a heat stress scoring system to evaluate the severity of heat stress on dairy cows using different heat abatement techniques. The scoring system ranged from 1 to 4, where 1 = no heat stress; 2 = mild heat stres...
Lactoferrin (LF) is a glycoprotein naturally present in milk. Its content varies throughout lactation, but also with mastitis; therefore it is a potential additional indicator of udder health beyond somatic cell count. Condequently, there is an inter...

In the present study, surface-enhanced Raman scattering-based lateral flow assay (SERS-LFA) strips were applied to promptly and sensitively detect Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) to ensure food safety. The SERS nanotags were prepared by co...
Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is a zoonotic disease in cattle that is transmissible to humans, distributed worldwide, and considered endemic throughout much of England and Wales. Mid-infrared (MIR) analysis of milk is used routinely to predict fat and pr...
In this article we present the development of a biosensor system that integrates nanotechnology, optomechanics and a spectral detection algorithm for sensitive quantification of antibiotic residues in raw milk of cow. Firstly, nanobiosensors were des...
In this study, an electronic nose (E-nose) consisting of seven metal oxide semiconductor sensors is developed to identify milk sources (dairy farms) and to estimate the content of milk fat and protein which are the indicators of milk quality. The dev...
The aim of this study was to develop classification models for mastitis and lameness treatments in Holstein dairy cows as the target variables based on continuous data from herd management software with modern machine learning methods. Data was colle...
Increased global temperatures and climatic anomalies, such as heatwaves, as a product of climate change, are impacting the heat stress levels of farm animals. These impacts could have detrimental effects on the milk quality and productivity of dairy ...
