Journal ArticleDOI
Protection against Staphylococcus aureus mastitis in dairy cows using a bismuth-based teat seal containing the bacteriocin, lacticin 3147.
Denis P. Twomey,A.I. Wheelock,A.I. Wheelock,James Flynn,William J. Meaney,Colin Hill,R.P. Ross +6 more
TL;DR: The potential for lacticin 3147 to prevent staphylococcal mastitis infections when a sufficient concentration of the bacteriocin is present is indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intramammary infusion of a live culture of Lactococcus lactis for treatment of bovine mastitis: comparison with antibiotic treatment in field trials
TL;DR: The results of these trials suggest that live culture treatment with Lc.
Journal ArticleDOI
The natural food grade inhibitor, lacticin 3147, reduced the incidence of mastitis after experimental challenge with Streptococcus dysgalactiae in nonlactating dairy cows
TL;DR: It is concluded that this nonantibiotic approach to mastitis prevention may contribute to a reduction in the routine application of antibiotics at drying off in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intramammary infusion of a live culture for treatment of bovine mastitis : effect of live lactococci on the mammary immune response
Fiona Crispie,Mercedes Alonso-Gomez,Collette O'Loughlin,Katja Klostermann,James Flynn,Sean Arkins,William J. Meaney,R. Paul Ross,Colin Hill +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the mechanism responsible for this probiotic treatment of mastitis is associated with stimulation of the host intramammary immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Administration of a live culture of Lactococcus lactis DPC 3147 into the bovine mammary gland stimulates the local host immune response, particularly IL-1β and IL-8 gene expression
Christine Beecher,Mairead Daly,Donagh P. Berry,Katja Klostermann,James Flynn,William J. Meaney,Colin Hill,Tommie V. McCarthy,R. Paul Ross,Linda Giblin +9 more
TL;DR: The detailed immune response of the host to delivery of this live strain directly into the mammary gland of six healthy dairy cows was looked at, leading to a rapid and considerable innate immune response.
