Product Description
The "PROFITEST MASTITIS" is a high precision diagnostic reagent used for the determination of somatic cells in milk, following the CMT method (California Mastitis Test). This product is essential for farmers and veterinarians to identify the presence of mastitis, a common inflammation of the udder in dairy animals. Mastitis can significantly affect milk quality and animal welfare, making the PROFITEST MASTITE a crucial tool for managing livestock health.
The test is based on a visual reaction: a thickening of the milk and reagent solution indicates a high quantity of somatic cells, signaling the possible presence of mastitis. The kit is designed to be simple to use and provides fast and reliable results. With PROFITEST MASTITIS, farmers can make informed and timely decisions for the treatment of mastitis, thus improving productivity and livestock health.
Instructions for Use
To use the PROFITEST MASTITIS, carefully follow the following instructions: collect the milk before milking, discarding the first three jets of milk from each udder to avoid contamination. Pour the fourth jet taken from each single breast into the four different trays of the reagent scoop, filling each recess to the indicated level. Add an equal dose of reagent to each tray, taking care to avoid the formation of foam. Slowly mix the milk and reagent and wait 10/15 seconds to observe the results. The presence of a thickening indicates a high quantity of somatic cells and therefore the possible presence of mastitis.
Diagnosis
The diagnosis is based on observing the reaction between the milk and the reagent. A liquid, ripple-free mixture indicates that the milk is in good condition. If the mixture has ripples, mastitis is starting to show. A gelatinous mixture signals the presence of mastitis, while a dense gelatinous mass indicates that mastitis is fully developed. These observations allow us to intervene promptly with appropriate measures to treat the condition and prevent further damage to the animal's health and the quality of the milk.
Format and Storage
The PROFITEST MASTITIS is supplied in a 1 liter bottle, which allows for extensive testing, making it an economical option for livestock health management. The product should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, to maintain its effectiveness. It is important to follow storage instructions to ensure that the reagent maintains its reactivity and provides accurate results during use.
Precautions and Safety
When using the PROFITEST MASTITIS, it is important to take precautions to ensure the safety of both the operator and the animal. Use protective gloves when handling the reagent and milk to avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Make sure the product is out of reach of children and pets. Do not use the product beyond the expiration date indicated on the label and follow all instructions provided to ensure accurate and reliable diagnostic results.
