Cells of Sow Mammary Secretions

Abstract: Summary The morphology and differential counts of the cells in sow's colostrum and milk were ascertained. Mean values of the total cell count for colostrum and milk were 1.06 + 0.79 and 1.57 + 0.94 × 109 cells/l, respectively. There was no linear correlation between the time of lactation and the total cell number. Six cell types were identified in the secretions: neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, epithelial cells and anucleate cells. Besides the predominance of neutrophils, the prevalence of … Show more

“…The proportion of macrophages in cell suspensions of sow milk has been reported to range from 5 to 9% (8, 31). However, in our milk samples of the control group, an average of 41% of somatic cells was found to be positive for mCD14.…”

“…Indeed, there are changes in the number as well as in the functional capacity of circulating blood leucocytes in the sow around parturition (LOFSTEDT et al, 1983;FOSSUM, 1988 and1990). Also at the site of infection in the agalactia syndrome, i.e., the mammary glands, there are variations in the composition of the mammary secretions in healthy sows with advancement in lactation (EVANS et al, 1982;LEE et al, 1984;SCHOLLENBERGER et al, 1986;. In the colostrum, the phagocytic polymorphonuclear leucocyte is the principal cell type, while in milk the number of this type of cell is decreased.…”

“…Similar inorganic materials such as adsorbents and filter aids have been used in the brewery industry (2). As global incidence of Fusarium toxins in cereals has been reported, frequent contamination can be expected for grain-based foods (25). iiooi, basal 001 reflection; dooi = 9.6 Â, interlayer separations of pillared clays; 5BET.…”
