Exploring the sources of variation of electrical conductivity and total and differential somatic cell count in Italian Mediterranean buffaloes

In the buffalo dairy sector, a huge effort is still needed to improve mastitis prevention, detection, and management. Electrical conductivity (EC) and total somatic cell count (SCC) are well-known indirect indicators of mastitis. Differential somatic cell count (DSCC), which represents the proportio...
