Teat Disinfectant Summary to be Updated - Research Papers Must Be Submitted by December 1
Fri October 16, 2009

The Summary of Peer-Reviewed Publications on Efficacy of Premilking and Postmilking Teat Disinfectants Published Since 1980 is compiled by the NMC as a way to provide teat dip efficacy information to the dairy industry. The Summary, which includes information such as product name, manufacturer, active ingredient(s) and product efficacy, is updated annually and published in the NMC Annual Meeting Proceedings and posted on the website [click here].

Research papers published since the Summary was last compiled (January 2009) are currently being reviewed for possible inclusion in the next summary (2010 NMC Proceedings). To be considered, the paper must have been published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, and the study must have followed protocols essentially as described by the NMC.

If you have a research paper to be considered for inclusion in the updated Summary, click here. The deadline for submission is December 1, 2009.
