Manuale d'uso del rilevatore di mastite Draminski MD4Q
Model: MD4Q
Introduzione
Prodotto finitoview
The Draminski MD4Q Mastitis Detector is a portable and user-friendly device designed to assist in the early detection of sub-clinical mastitis in cows. This innovative device features a 4-cup design with a dedicated display for each quarter, enabling precise monitoring of udder health. Early detection of mastitis, even without visible symptoms, facilitates timely intervention, which can reduce treatment costs and minimize financial losses associated with milk production.
Principio di funzionamento
The detector operates by measuring changes in the electrical resistance of milk. As sub-clinical mastitis develops, there is an increase in salt levels within the milk, which directly correlates with a change in its electrical resistance. This method is recognized as a reliable indirect test for diagnosing sub-clinical mastitis. The device measures the condition separately for each quarter, displaying the differences and highlighting the quarter with the highest risk of mastitis.

Istruzioni per l'uso
Esecuzione di un test
Follow these steps to perform a mastitis test:
- Assicurarsi che il dispositivo sia pulito e asciutto prima dell'uso.
- Milk the first portion of milk directly from each teat into its corresponding measuring cup on the device. Fill each cup adequately.
- Press the designated button on the device to initiate the measurement.
- Read the results displayed on the screen. The device will show readings for each of the four quarters.
Interpretazione dei risultati
The device displays numerical values representing the electrical resistance of the milk from each quarter. Higher values or significant differences between quarters may indicate an increased risk of sub-clinical mastitis. The device is designed to highlight the quarter with the greatest risk, allowing for targeted monitoring and intervention.
