Abstract
Despite the widespread implementation of mastitis control programs, mastitis is the most common and one of the costliest diseases in the dairy industry, with broad-ranging impacts and consequences. Recent technological advances have allowed researchers to assess the effects of mastitis on animal behavior and welfare, and the efficacy of mastitis treatments. Several nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are available as supportive therapies for clinical mastitis. This article focuses on recent advances in the assessment, therapy, and effects of mastitis on cow behavior and welfare.Entities:
