Abstract

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of post teat dip treatment in dairy cattle for the prevention of clinical and sub-clinical mastitis. A total of 150 crossbred cows were selected randomly of different age groups, lactation stage, and herd size. The effect of a combination of povidone iodine and glycerin in the ratio of 3: 1 and a commercially available product filmadine (vansun) were evaluated. Both the above mentioned treatments were found to be equally effective against prevention of clinical and subclinical mastitis as compared to non-treated group of animals. It can be concluded that the post teat dip treatment improved quality and composition of milk along with reduction in chances of clinical and subclinical mastitis.
