Abstract
Summary: The teats of milked and unmilked quarters of 6 cows were deliberately contaminated twice daily by immersion in a suspension of streptococci and staphylococci. Only the unmilked quarters became infected, 7 with Staphylococcus aureus and 3 with Streptococcus uberis. Neither previous infection with the same strain or a different strain of pathogen nor existing infection with Corynebacterium bovis appeared to influence the results.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
