Introduction
In order to provide safe and creditable livestock products, the removal of harm must be a top priority. The biggest hazards to livestock products are the contamination of antibiotics and pathogenic microorganisms. The largest problem in dairy farms is the occurrence of mastitis. I am struggling against the development of effective means to control mastitis.
List of current research topics
- Economic evaluation of mastitis vaccine
- Establishment of simple, quick and accurate identification method for mastitis pathogen
- Epidemiology of environmental mastitis (clinical analysis and molecular epidemiological analysis)
- Culture-based therapy (prudent use of antibiotics)
- Association between cattle nutritional status and mastitis
