Abstract

The purpose of this research was to determine the total cell count and some pathogenic microorganisms in 105 milk samples. The somatic cell count (SCC) was significantly higher in mastitic milk samples compared to the uninfected glands and dirty milk samples. The total number of microorganisms (TBC) in dirty and mastitic milk was 5-20 times more than results in healthy milk samples. The influence of the selected pathogenic microorganisms on the number of somatic cells, neutrophils and CD4+ cells was studied. The obtained results were compared with those by a flow cytometer Guava easyCyteTM 8HT. The proportion of different cell types (neutrophils and CD4+ cells) has been shown to be influenced by the type of pathogens.
