Abstract
Lymphocytes play a significant role in the immunological processes of the bovine mammary gland and were found to be the dominant cell population in the milk of healthy udder quarters. The objective of this study was to investigate the quantitative relationship between CD2(+) T and CD21(+) B lymphocytes using flow cytometry. In a first study, quarter foremilk samples from apparently healthy udder quarters [somatic cell counts (SCC) ≤100,000 cells/mL; n=65] were analyzed and compared with diseased quarters (SCC >100,000 cells/mL; n=15). Percentages of CD2(+) T cells were significantly higher in milk samples with SCC ≤100,000 cells/mL than in those with SCC >100,000 cells/mL, whereas percentages of CD21(+) B cells developed in the opposite direction. As a result of this opposing trend, a new variable, the CD2/CD21 index-representing the percentages of CD2(+) cells per CD21(+) cells-was defined. Although diseased quarters with SCC >100,000 cells/mL and the detection of major pathogens revealed generally CD2/CD21 indices <10, values >10 were observed in apparently healthy quarters. Hence, a CD2/CD21 index cutoff value of 10 may be suitable to aid differentiation between unsuspicious and microbiologically suspicious or diseased udder quarters. To test whether CD2/CD21 indices <10 were primarily related to pathogens, quarters with SCC ≤100,000 cells/mL and >100,000 cells/mL with different bacteriological status (culture negative, or minor or major pathogens) were selectively examined in a second biphasic study. In the first trial, 63 udder quarters were analyzed and 55 of these quarters were able to be sampled again in the second trial carried out 14 d later. In both trials, results of the first study were confirmed. Indeed, CD2/CD21 indices <10 were also found in quarters showing SCC ≤100,000 cells/mL and containing minor or major pathogens at the time of the current or previous bacteriological analysis. The results of our examinations indicated a clear relationship between the CD2/CD21 index and the bacteriological status of the mammary gland. In combination with SCC, it offers a new marker for quick differentiation of unsuspicious and microbiologically suspicious or diseased udder quarters.

Abstract
The present work is a large epidemiological study aiming to detect the prevalence of subclinical mastitis and to investigate the major udder pathogens in Jalisco State, western Mexico. For this purpose, 2205 dairy cows, representing 33 Mexican dairy herds, were involved. Of 2205 cows, 752 mastitic animals were diagnosed and only 2,979 milk samples could be obtained for further investigation. All 2979 milk samples were subjected to California Mastitis Test (CMT) to differentiate clinical cases from subclinical ones where 1996 samples (67 %) reacted positively. Of these, 1087 samples (54.5%) came from cows suffering from clinical cases of mastitis. Bacteriological identification of the causative agents revealed the presence of a major group of pathogens including the Coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS), S.aureus, S.agalactiae, Corynebacterium spp. and Coliform bacteria which were detected in 464 (15.6%), 175 (5.9%), 200 (6.8%), 417 (14%) and 123 (4.1%) of the 2927 investigated quarters, 295 (15.4%), 118 (15.7%), 111 (14.8%), 227 (30.2%) and 109 (14.5%) of the 752 examined cows and in 33 (100%), 22 (66.7%), 19 (57.6%), 30 (90.1%) and 27 (81.8%) of the 33 herds involved, respectively. Other pathogens could be detected in the investigated milk samples such as S. dysgalactiae (0.4%), S.uberis (0.37%), Bacillus spp. (1%), Nocardia spp. (0.6%) und Candida spp. (0.1%). Meanwhile, others were present in a negligible ratio; including the Aerococcus viridans, and Enterococcus spp., Lactococcus lactis, S. bovis.

Abstract
Somatic cell counts (SCC) are generally used as an indicator of udder health. Currently in Germany, 100,000 cells/mL is the threshold differentiating infected and noninfected mammary glands. The aim of our study was the detailed analysis of udder health in a representative part of the dairy cow population in Hesse, Germany. Between 2000 and 2008, 615,187 quarter foremilk samples were analyzed. In addition to evaluation of distribution of SCC and prevalence of mastitis pathogens, pathogen prevalence was also calculated depending on SCC. The data indicated that 38% of all samples had SCC >100,000 cells/mL and 62% showed SCC ≤ 100,000 cells/mL; 31% of all samples revealed SCC ≤ 25,000 cells/mL. Coagulase-negative staphylococci were the dominant pathogens in the Hessian quarter foremilk samples (17.17% of all samples) followed by Corynebacterium spp. (13.56%), Streptococcus uberis (8.7%), and Staphylococcus aureus (5.01%). Mastitis pathogens were detected in 83% of all samples with SCC >100,000 cells/mL. However, the prevalence of mastitis pathogens in the SCC range from 1,000 to ≤ 100,000 cells/mL was 8.5% (5.51% minor pathogens, 2.01% major pathogens, and 0.98% other pathogens). For farms producing high quality milk, exceptional hygiene management is compulsory. One of the farms randomly selected showed clearly different results from the Hessian survey. Fifteen percent more samples lay in the SCC range ≤ 100,000 cells/mL with a lower prevalence of mastitis pathogens of 1.91% (1.03% minor pathogens, 0.83% major pathogens, and 0.05% other pathogens). Based on these results, inflammatory processes can obviously be detected in mammary glands of udder quarters healthy according to the current definitions. However, we argue that such inflammation can be detected by examination of the relationship of immune cells in milk.

Abstract
PCR detection of the genes encoding the newly described staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) SEG, SEH, SEI and SEJ was carried out for 104 randomly selected Staphylococcus aureus field strains isolated from cases of bovine mastitis. Sixty-one (58.7%) isolates were positive for one or more of these novel enterotoxin genes. Thirty-six field strains were classified as carrier of seg, 22 of sei gene and 23 were positive for sej gene. None of the 104 investigated ruminant S. aureus strains carried the seh gene. Thirty-seven of these S. aureus strains showed a combination of genes encoding enterotoxin types SEA to SEE or toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST 1). Thirteen cultures harboured only one, 28 two, 12 three and 8 four enterotoxin genes. Among the 61 S. aureus field strains 14 (23.0%) were positive for the genes encoding SEJ and SED and 10 (16.4%) isolates for those encoding SEG and SEI. Isolates harbouring the sed/sej genes were further characterized by macrorestriction analysis and pulsed-field-gelelectrophoresis (Pfge). Macrorestriction analysis revealed six patterns. Nine of these14 S. aureus isolates (64.3%) exhibited two patterns with a high degree of relationship (>80%).

Abstract
In Hesse, Germany, bulk milk of farms producing raw milk cheese is examined by PCR for Coxiella burnetii yearly. In 2003 the pathogen has been detected unusually frequent. By means of two examples the hygienic measures are shown, which were initiated by the veterinary administration. To detect Coxiella burnetii means always the preoccupation with unsolved questions. It is particularly uncertain, whether there is a risk of oral infection for the human being. From the point of view of food hygiene, surveys are needed urgently to work out a risk assessment. Based on this a uniform risk management and a reasonable risk communication can be fixed.

Abstract
In the present study 130 S. uberis strains and one S. parauberis strain isolated from bovine milk samples of 58 different farms of various locations in Hesse, Germany, as well as two reference strains of each species were comparatively investigated for cultural, biochemical, serological and molecular properties. All S. uberis strains produced the enzyme beta-D-glucuronidase, while the S. parauberis strains were negative. The S. uberis and S. parauberis 16S rRNA genes were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and subsequently digested with the restriction enzymes RsaI and AvaII yielding species-specific restriction patterns. Both species were additionally identified by amplifying species-specific parts of the genes encoding the 16S rRNA, the 23S rRNA and the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region, respectively. The CAMP factor gene cfu, a potential virulence factor of S. uberis, was amplified, corresponding to a phenotypically positive CAMP-reaction, using cfu-specific oligonucleotide primers. In addition the streptokinase/plasminogen activator encoding genes skc/pauA, a second potential virulence factor, could be amplified for 126 of the 130 S. uberis but not for S. parauberis. A DNA fingerprinting of S. uberis strains, performed by macrorestriction analysis of their chromosomal DNA by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, revealed that most of the isolates were not related to each other. However, identical DNA patterns were noted for some of the isolates within different quarters of an individual cow and also for different cows within the same farm. The generally unrelated DNA patterns indicated that S. uberis is a pathogen with multiple environmental habitats and that infections are caused by a great variety of strains.

Abstract
Hormone-related cancers in the prostate, breast, endometrium, ovary and testicle account for 30% of malignancies in humans. We have developed a unique model of spontaneous prostate cancer (PC) in Lobund-Wistar [L-W] rats that shares many of its characteristics with the natural history of PC in man, including (a) inherent predisposition, high production of testosterone and aging risk factors, (b) endogenous tumorigenic mechanisms, and (c) early stage testosterone-dependent and late stage testosterone-independent tumors. About 30% of L-W rats on diet L-485 develop spontaneous palpable cancer in the anterior prostate-seminal vesicle (P-SV) complex in average of 20.5 months. At age 12 months early stage spontaneous PC was prevented or reversed by testosterone-deprivation through change of diet from L-485 to soy protein isolate/isoflavone (SPII) diet, thereby preventing the late lethal clinical disease: about 75% of rats at risk of developing testosterone-independent P-SV tumors were free of detectable cancer and about 25% had developed testosterone-independent cancer at age 12 months. The duration of the dependent stage exceeded age 12 months in 75% of the rats at risk. Dietary soymeal, found in most natural ingredient diets, may promote PC tumorigenesis, but only in L-W rats.

Abstract
In the present study, 103 Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from milk samples from 60 cows with mastitis from eight different farms in seven different locations in one region of Germany were compared pheno- and genotypically and by identification of various toxins. On the basis of culture and hemolytic properties and by determination of the tube coagulase reaction, all of the isolates could be identified as S. aureus. This could be confirmed by PCR amplification of species-specific parts of the gene encoding the 23S rRNA. In addition, all of the S. aureus isolates harbored the genes encoding staphylococcal coagulase and clumping factor and the genes encoding the X region and the immunoglobulin G binding region of protein A. These four genes displayed size polymorphisms. By PCR amplification, the genes for the toxins staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA), SEC, SED, SEG, SEI, SEJ, and TSST-1 but not those for SEB, SEE, SEH, and the exfoliative toxins ETA and ETB could be detected. To analyze the epidemiological relationships, the isolates were subjected to DNA fingerprinting by macrorestriction analysis of their chromosomal DNAs. According to the observed gene polymorphisms, the toxin patterns, and the information given by macrorestriction analysis of the isolates by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, a limited number of clones seemed to be responsible for the cases of bovine mastitis on the various farms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological surveys recorded that men in the Orient (Japan and China) consuming diets high in soy food were at low risk of developing clinical prostate cancer, compared to a relatively high risk among men in the West who consumed diets low in soy food. Soybeans contain phytoestrogens (isoflavones) with many recorded anticancer mechanisms. The Lobund-Wistar (L-W) rat is a unique model system: approximately 30% develop metastasizing adenocarcinomas spontaneously in the anterior prostate-seminal vesicle complex (P-SV), from which the tumors expand into the dorsolateral lobes. L-W rats are inherently predisposed, possibly by unusually high levels of circulating testosterone (T), to develop P-SV tumors which are T-dependent in the early stages and T-independent in advanced stages of tumorigenesis. METHODS L-W rats were fed two diets from age 2-24 months: 1) natural ingredient diet L-485 (Harlan TekLad Diets, Madison, WI) containing soy meal, or 2) a modified starch-casein diet in which soy protein isolate/isoflavones (SPII) replaced casein as a source of protein. RESULTS At age 24 months, 3 of 99 (3%) rats on diet SPII and 30 of 100 (30%) rats on diet L-485 developed spontaneous P-SV cancers. Rats on the SPII diet manifested a significant reduction of circulating T, approaching physiological levels. Failure of the rats on diet L-485 to prevent P-SV cancer development suggests that soy meal contained a factor(s) that blocked the antiandrogenic action of the phytoestrogen. CONCLUSIONS The spontaneous development of P-SV cancers was significantly prevented in L-W rats consuming the SPII diet from age 2-24 months, possibly through an agonist effect of the soy-derived phytoestrogens.

Abstract
The prevalence of Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in healthy dairy ruminants was investigated between 1996 and 1998 by a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (mPCR) technique. A total of 13 552 E. coli colonies from 726 cows, 28 sheep and 93 goats out of 112 randomly selected dairy farms in Hessia, Germany were analysed. STEC strains were recovered from 131 (18.0%) cows, nine (32.1%) sheep and 70 (75.3%) goats. Further characterization of the STEC isolates showed that 89 (0.66% of the investigated colonies) of animal field strains carried stx1 gene, 64 (0.47%) stx2 gene and 57 (0.42%) stx1 and stx2 gene. Sixty (93.8%) out of 64 stx2 field strains were harboured by cows. In contrast, 74 (83.1%) out of 89 stx1 dairy animal field strains were from ovine or caprine origin. Only 17 (8. 1%) stx-positive isolates (13 from cattle, three from sheep and only one from goat) were positive for eaeA gene. Eight (9.0%) of the stx1, five (7.8%) of the stx2 and four (7.0%) of the stx1/stx2 gene-positive field strains carried the eaeA gene. The prevalence of EHEC-haemolysin (EHEC-hlyA) gene sequence was 88.8% (79 isolates) of the stx1 and 68.8% (44 isolates) of the stx2 isolates. Out of 57 stx1- and stx2-positive field-strains, 34 (59.6%) carried the EHEC-hlyA gene. E. coli O serovars O:157 and O:111 were not found. Only one isolate was positive with O26 antiserum.

Abstract
Based on epidemiological surveys, the low incidence of clinical prostate cancer among aged men in Japan and China were attributed to high consumption of soybean-derived food in which phytoestrogens have numerous anticancer mechanisms. The prostate model in Lobund-Wistar (L-W) rats produce high levels of testosterone (T). They are inherently predisposed to develop induced and spontaneous metastasizing adenocarcinomas, which are (T)-dependent in early stages and T-independent in advanced stages. In the experiment reported here, 2 groups of L-W rats (age 2 months) were fed soy-containing diets: (a) commercial diet L-485 (TekLad) with soy meal; or (b) a soy-free diet (L-474) in which casein was replaced by soy protein isolate/isoflavones (SPII). At age 3 months, all rats were inoculated i.v. with MNU; and 14 months later, 17/58 (29.3%) of rats on diet L-485 developed cancer in avg 12 months, compared to 5/50 (10%) of rats on the SPII diet in avg 12.1 months (P = 0.001). In the latter rats, the serum levels of T, and weights of testes were significantly reduced; but in the former rats, serum levels of T remained elevated, suggesting that soy meal in L-4,85 blocked the estrogenic effects of phytoestrogens.

Abstract
During January 1994 and August 1996 from dairy farms in Hessia a total of 305,609 milk samples were investigated. Prototheca sp. as etiological agent of a mastitis was isolated from milk samples of seven dairy herds. According to our experiences and to several reports from various countries dealing with Prototheca infections in dairy herds, mastitis control programs should include Prototheca algae as potential pathogens. Mastitis due to this organism usually occurs in different semeiologies, one with clinical symptoms, and the other, more common type, as subclinical mastitis. In both cases, Prototheca organisms use to persist in the tissue of the mammary gland also during the dry period and antimicrobial treatment proves to be ineffective. Considering the wide distribution of these algae as saprophytes in the environment and in feces of several domestic animals, predisposing factors like a humid aerobic milieu and unsanitary milking conditions are necessary for Prototheca infections becoming manifest in the udder of dairy cows. Control measures should preferably stress the identification and removal of infected animals, in particular when the disease is sporadic in the herd. Due to the more questionable occurrence of spontaneous healing and the lack of an efficient drug, slaughtering of infected cows appears as a suitable method to eliminate the disease from the herd. Additionally, improvement of the hygiene status concerning feeding and milking management within a herd is as essential as in the control of other opportunistic udder pathogens.
