Popis: Mammary leucocytes are the major contributors to natural defence against mastitis after a microorganism has entered the gland. This paper reviews the role of the neutrophil granulocyte during acute coliform mastitis in cows in the periparturient period. Qualitative and quantitative aspects of several neutrophil cell functions before and during experimentally induced infections are briefly discussed.
