CHROMagar - a solution in Mastitis diagnostics
One of the main causes of the huge economic losses affecting dairy producers and the dairy industry as a whole is the lack of control over the spread of mastitis in cattle, also known as mastitis. It results in a decrease in the quantity and quality of milk produced, as well as an increase in the cost of veterinary treatment due to the expenditure on medicines. In addition, there is a risk of bacteria getting into milk or meat, which can be dangerous for consumers.
Studies have shown that losses due to Mastitis were in the range of $160-344 per head of cattle. Statistically, the annual cost of treatment of 1 cow (regardless of the degree of development of the infection) is $ 200-300 in the USA and France, and in the UK - $ 120.
As a multifactorial disease, caused by several microbes, the control of Mastitis infections remains a difficult problem. However, antibiotic therapy can be effective, but only if the pathogens causing the disease are accurately identified.
CHROMagarTM Mastitis is a new, commercially available tool for quick and simple identification of key bacteria associated with Mastitis infections. This new set consists of two different substrates - one for gram-positive bacteria, the other for gram-negative.
