Influence of Mastitis on the Curd Tension of Milk*

H. C. Hansen1, D. R. Theophilus2, F. W. Atkeson3 and E. M. Gildow4

Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station, Moscow, Idaho

ABSTRACT

  1. Mastitis caused by a streptococcic infection invariably lowered the curd tension of milk.
  2. Mastitis caused by a staphylococcic infection apparently had no appreciable influence on the curd tension of milk.
  3. The black cloth test successfully detected mastitis caused by a streptococcic infection, but not that caused by a staphylococcic infection.
  4. There was no correlation between the development of fibrous tissue in the udder and the curd tension of the milk in the cases studied.
