Milk ejection is important during milking or suckling to obtain the alveolar milk fraction, which
can represent more than 80% of the milk stored in the udder of dairy cows. In response to …

The study of milk flow curves provides useful information for enhancing milking efficiency
and protecting udder health by adapting milking machine and milking procedures to the …

In this research communication I show the effect of various cow–calf contact systems on milk
yield and milk composition during the periods when calves where allowed to suckle their …

Calcium homeostatic mechanisms are challenged in periparturient multiparous dairy cattle
due to the rapid transport of large amounts of calcium into the mammary gland associated …

Antibiotic excretion into milk depends on several factors such as the compound's
physicochemical properties, the animal physiology, and the milk composition. The objective …

A total of 22 dairy dromedary camels under intensive conditions in late lactation (275±24
days) were used to study the relationship between external and internal udder morphology …

Nine Manchega (0.94 L/d) and 10 Lacaune (2.07 L/d) ewes at the same stage of lactation
(90 d in milk) were used to study the interbreed differences in milk yield, mammary …

Thirty multiparous Murciano-Granadina dairy goats milked once daily were used to study the
lactational effects of an extended 24-mo kidding interval (K24; n= 14) compared with the …

To maximise the return on capital invested in the milking parlour, the largest number of cows
should be milked gently and completely in the shortest possible time. Bimodal milk flow and …

Delayed milk ejection, manifested most often as bimodal milk flow, occurs when the cisternal
milk fraction is removed before the alveolar milk reaches the gland cistern. It is thought to be …
