The LSU Hill Farm Research
Station herd, consisting of 105 to
117 Jerseys, was used for the two
challenge trials. Teats from both
treated cows and untreated con
trols were dipped into con
centrated solution of Staph,
aureus and Strep, ag. immediately
after milking. Cows in the treated
group were then dipped with the
non-iodine dip.
Control cows developed 23 new
Staph, aureus and 14 new Strep,
ag. infections during the four week
trial, compared to just four Staph,
aureus and six Strep, ag, infections
for the dipped group.
A 75-cow commercial Jersey
herd formed the experimental
base for the six-month natural
infection trial. The herd was
divided into two groups, balanced
as closely as possible on the basis
of number of lactations, stage of
lactation, milk production and
other factors.
Milk samples were collected
twice a month just prior to a
regular milking. Teats of the
treated cows were dipped full
length immediately after each
milking.
Twelve new Staph, aureus in
fections were detected in the
control animals, while only four
treated cows developed new in
fections.
