First consultation on work package 5: Prevention of antibiotic residues

Meeting in Kiel, May 14-15th, 2001 
Variable milking frequencies during automatic milking may lead to different excretion characteristics of antibiotic residues in milk after treatment of cows. Penicillins and cephalosporines have been selected for first treatment trials under experimental conditions. These substances are the most frequently applied for mastitis therapy in European countries. Present experiments study the excretion with milking frequencies deviating from conventional milking.
