Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Mastitis is an important disease in dairy farming, which causes lots of economic losses every year. Although research and efforts have been made, mastitis is still the first issue that should be considered in the development of the industry, which is related to food safety and human health. Many causes have been involved in mastitis, e.g., bacteria, viruses, machine disorders, heat stress, nutritional factors, etc. Therefore, this Special Issue on “Ruminant Mastitis: Therapies and Control” aims to promote research on the mechanism of mastitis and others about the prevention, treatment, and control development in practical farms or experimental animal models.
