| Abstract | Somatic cell count (SCC), total bacterial count (TBC), L selectin and CD 18 on milk leukocytes was studied in buffaloes inflicted with intramammary infection in response to Curcuma longa (C. longa, CL) and vitamin E plus selenium (group II), Enrofloxacin (group III) and sterile PBS (group IV). Significant reduction (P LT 0.05) in SCC, TBC was observed in post-treated buffalo cows. The mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of L selectin increased significantly (P LT 0.05) in Group 2 posttreated cows, however, there was no reduction in CD 18 counts in this group. The results suggest that Curcuma longa (CL) possesses antibacterial, antiinflammatory and immunomodulatory properties. In the present study the biological activity of the CL and vitamin E plus selenium at standardized dose against mastitis in buffalo cows is reported for the first time. Development of alternative therapy is an option for livestock farmers who are not allowed to use allopathic drugs under certain farming system. |
