DESCRIPTION
A BETTER WAY TO MEASURE SOMATIC CELL COUNT

  • Easy – Simple to use with objective, easy-to-read results
  • Fast – 1-minute procedure, results in 15 minutes
  • Affordable – Costs far less than lab testing and electronic meters
  • Cowside – Test anytime, no lab required
  • Accurate – Delivers objective results with laboratory-level consistency
  • Versatile – Works with quarter & composite samples

Every kit comes with supplies to conduct 50 tests; 50 strips, 50 sampler pipettes, and a chemical buffer.

WHY USE A SCC TEST?

Somatic cell count tests help assess milk quality and screen for mastitis in dairy cows. These on-farm tests are easy to use and don’t require a veterinarian. Regular testing supports herd health by enabling early detection of issues, enabling proactive management and better outcomes.

WIDE-RANGING APPLICATIONS:

  •  Test at dry off (when infection risk is highest) and freshening
  • Screen first-calf heifers and high-risk cows
  • Monitor treated cows to confirm recovery
  • Evaluate purchased cows before herd introduction
  • Perform routine preventative herd health screenings
  • Check cows before insemination

HOW TO TEST YOUR COW’S SCC:

1. Prepare Udder & Collect Sample – Perform normal udder prep, forestrip 3-5 streams, and collect a milk sample in a clean, labeled container. Mix well.
2. Prepare Test Strip & Pipette – Place an SCC test strip on a flat surface. Use the provided pipette to draw a milk sample from the container.
3. Apply Milk to Test Strip – Dispense the milk sample onto the test pad.
4. Add Buffer Solution – Once the milk is absorbed, apply 2 drops of provided buffer solution to the test pad.
5. Wait & Compare Results – Set a timer for 15 minutes, then compare the test pad color to the chart on the test strip vial to determine the SCC level.

WHAT IS MASTITIS?

 Mastitis is an inflammation of the mammary gland in lactating cows, caused by bacterial infection. It affects milk quality, leading to taste changes and visible abnormalities like clots or flakes. Signs in cows include swelling, redness, and hardness of the teat. The infection triggers a white blood cell response, increasing somatic cells in the milk, which indicate infection. Poor hygiene, bruising, unsanitary, or stressful conditions increase the risk.

This test is intended solely for the estimation of somatic cell count in fresh cow milk. The test is not a laboratory reference method and should not be used as a diagnostic test. Consult a veterinarian before starting any treatment.
