As the use of bulk-tank milk samples for screening is less labor-intensive and more cost-effective than individual-tank sampling [ 19], this approach represents an important development in dairy research.
Future studies in this area should focus on the correlation between serum PON1 activity and hepatic triglycerides content in both healthy and ill dairy cows as well as the diagnostic validation of serum PON1 assay in the early prediction of fatty liver development in dairy farms, which would have a considerable clinical impact and lead to greater profitability in the dairy industry.
Diagram veterans favour the quieter charms of Cheese Problems Solved, which would make a neat companion to the 1988 winner, Developments in Dairy Cow Breeding and Management: And New Opportunities to Widen the Uses of Straw.
