Abstract
Mastitis remains a major challenge to the dairy industry in terms of economic losses occurring throughout the world. Bovine mastitis is the endemic, persistent and inflammatory reaction of the mammary gland and/or udder tissue of milch animals particularly medium to high yielding dairy cattle, usually in and around peri-parturient period caused by various infectious or non-infectious etiological agents. It is a global problem as it affects animal health, milk production as well economics of the country. The clinical signs and diagnosis may vary depending on the source, mode of the transmission and forms of the disease. Several methods with varying results exist for the management of different forms of bovine mastitis. The objective of this present review is to describe the relevant aspects of physiology, clinical signs, diagnosis, and treatment strategies of bovine mastitis.
