Abstract

Fibrosis is a common sequel of 4 weeks of unsuccessful mastitis treatment which is of economic importance. Fibrosis may be diffused, involving whole quarter or local varying in size from pea-like lesions to bigger masses near the base or tip of the teat. A Nutraceuticals product Rid-Mast containing anti-oxidants, fat-coated micronutrients, buffers and energy supplements was tried in 139 cows and buffaloes with the fibrotic udder, given as electuary and found 83 per cent effective and their lost milk yield was restored.
