Mastitis Test Equipment
CMT Ready-To-Use, No Mixing Required
The California Mastitis Test (CMT) is a practical and efficient method for detecting subclinical mastitis in dairy cows. It works by mixing a small amount of milk from each quarter of the cow's udder with a reagent in a paddle with four wells. The key to the CMT is the reaction between the reagent and the somatic cells present in the milk. When the cell membranes are disrupted, the DNA inside reacts with the reagent, causing a gel to form. The thickness of this gel is an indicator of the somatic cell count, which increases with infection. The test is scored on a scale from 0, indicating no reaction, to 3, which signifies a strong reaction and likely infection. This simple yet effective test helps farmers monitor the udder health of their cows and take early action to treat mastitis Ready-to-use CMT test liquids do not require any mixing and can simplify the testing process. These solutions are designed to be simple, fast, and easy to use, providing dairy farmers with an excellent tool for early detection of mastitis, potentially saving time and resources by managing udder health more effectively. • 1 liter bottle • CMT Reagent Test Liquid • Ready to Use!

CMT Concentrate
The California Mastitis Test (CMT) is a quick and reliable method to detect mastitis in dairy cows, a common and costly problem for dairy farmers. ImmuCell's CMT is designed for ease of use and accuracy, providing a cost-effective solution for mastitis management. The test works by detecting the somatic cell count in milk, which increases significantly during mastitis due to the presence of white blood cells fighting the infection. When mixed with the CMT reagent, the DNA from these cells creates a gel-like substance, indicating the health status of the milk. This test is essential for early detection, allowing for prompt treatment and reducing the risk of spreading the infection to other cows. Additionally, the concentrated formula offered by ImmuCell is economical, as one pint can be diluted to make one gallon of working solution, sufficient for approximately 350 tests. This not only helps in managing the health of the herd but also ensures the quality of milk production. Concentrated Mastitis test formula for use with Mastitis Test Paddle.
