Abstract
Mastitis causes huge economic losses to dairy farmers worldwide, which largely negatively affects the quality and quantity of milk. Mastitis decreases overall milk production, degrades milk quality, increases milk losses because of milk being discarded, and increases overall production costs due to higher treatment and labour costs and premature culling. This review article discusses mastitis with respect to its clinical epidemiology, the pathogens involved, economic losses, and basic and advanced diagnostic tools that have been used in recent times to diagnose mastitis effectively. There is an increasing focus on the application of novel therapeutic approaches as an alternative to conventional antibiotic therapy because of the decreasing effectiveness of antibiotics, emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, issue of antibiotic residues in the food chain, food safety issues, and environmental impacts. This article also discussed nanoparticles'/chitosan's roles in antibiotic-resistant strains and ethno-veterinary practices for mastitis treatment in dairy cattle.

Abstract
Background Bovine mastitis is the most frequent and costly illness impacting dairy herds worldwide. The presence of subclinical mastitis in dairy cows has an impact on the decreased output of milk and milk quality, culling of affected cows, mortality rate, as well as mastitis-related treatment expenses, generating significant financial loss to the dairy industry. The pathogenic bacteria invade through the mammary gland, which then multiply in the milk-producing tissues causing infection, and the presence of pathogenic bacteria in milk is concerning, jeopardizes human health, and also has public health consequences. Intervention to promote herd health is essential to protect public health and the economy. Results This review attempts to provide an overview of subclinical mastitis, including mastitis in different species, the effect of mastitis on human health and its pathogenic mechanism, the prevalence and incidence of subclinical mastitis, and current preventive, diagnostic, and treatment methods for subclinical mastitis. It also elaborates on the management practices that should be followed by the farms to improve herd immunity and health. Conclusion This review brings the importance of the threat of antimicrobial resistance organisms to the dairy industry. Furthermore, this review gives a glimpse of the economic consequences faced by the farmers and a futuristic mastitis market analysis in the dairy industry.

Abstract
Plasmin protease plays an important role in many processes in living systems, including milk. Monitoring plasmin activity is important for control of the nutritional quality of milk and other dairy products. We designed a biosensor to detect the proteolytic activity of plasmin, using multiharmonic quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). The β-casein immobilized on the hydrophobic surface of 1-dodecanethiol on the AT-cut quartz crystal was used to monitor plasmin activity. We demonstrated detection of plasmin in a concentration range of 0.1–20 nM, with the limit of detection about 0.13 ± 0.01 nM. The analysis of viscoelastic properties of the β-casein layer showed rapid changes of shear elasticity modulus, μ, and coefficient of viscosity, η, at plasmin sub-nanomolar concentrations, followed by modest changes at nanomolar concentrations, indicating multilayer architecture β-casein. A comparative analysis of viscoelastic properties of β-casein layers following plasmin and trypsin cleavage showed that the higher effect of trypsin was due to larger potential cleavage sites of β-casein.

Abstract
This report describes how image processing harnessed to multivariate analysis techniques can be used as a bio-analytical tool for mastitis screening in cows using milk samples collected from 48 animals (32 from Jersey, 7 from Gir, and 9 from Guzerat cow breeds), totalizing a dataset of 144 sequential images was collected and analyzed. In this context, this methodology was developed based on the lactoperoxidase activity to assess mastitis using recorded images of a cuvette during a simple experiment and subsequent image treatments with an R statistics platform. The color of the sample changed from white to brown upon its exposure to reagents, which is a consequence of lactoperoxidase enzymatic reaction. Data analysis was performed to extract the channels from the RGB (Red-Green-Blue) color system, where the resulting dataset was evaluated with Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Multiple Linear Regression (MLR), and Second-Order Regression (SO). Interesting results in terms of enzymatic activity correlation (R2 = 0.96 and R2 = 0.98 by MLR and SO, respectively) and of somatic cell count (R2 = 0.97 and R2 = 0.99 by MLR and SO, respectively), important mastitis indicators, were obtained using this simple method. Additionally, potential advantages can be accessed such as quality control of the dairy chain, easier bovine mastitis prognosis, lower cost, analytical frequency, and could serve as an evaluative parameter to verify the health of the mammary gland.

Abstract
We used the research quartz crystal microbalance (RQCM) to monitor regulatory effects of plasmin and trypsin in the presence of their inhibitor α2-antiplasmin. The gold surface of quartz crystals was modified with a β-casein layer that served as a substrate for protease digestion. The addition of plasmin or trypsin as well as their mixtures with α2-antiplasmin resulted in an increase of resonant frequency, f, and in a decrease of motional resistance, Rm, depending on the molar ratio of protease: antiplasmin. At equimolar concentrations of protease and α2-antiplasmin (5 nM:5 nM) full inhibition of protease activity took place. Monitoring of plasmin activity on an hourly and daily basis revealed a prominent effect of autolysis and decrease of plasmin activity in freshly activated samples. The degree of inhibition as well as plasmin half-life (t1/2 = 2.48 ± 0.28 days) connected with its degradation was determined.

Abstract
Fast and precise diagnosis of infectious and non-infectious animal diseases and their targeted treatments are of utmost importance for their clinical management. The existing biochemical, serological and molecular methods of disease diagnosis need improvement in their specificity, sensitivity and cost and, are generally not amenable for being used as points-of-care (POC) device. Further, with dramatic changes in environment and farm management practices, one should also arm ourselves and prepare for emerging and re-emerging animal diseases such as cancer, prion diseases, COVID-19, influenza etc. Aptamer – oligonucleotide or short peptides that can specifically bind to target molecules – have increasingly become popular in developing biosensors for sensitive detection of analytes, pathogens (bacteria, virus, fungus, prions), drug residues, toxins and, cancerous cells. They have also been proven successful in the cellular delivery of drugs and targeted therapy of infectious diseases and physiological disorders. However, the in vivo application of aptamer-mediated biosensing and therapy in animals has been limited. This paper reviews the existing reports on the application of aptamer-based biosensors and targeted therapy in animals. It also dissects the various modifications to aptamers that were found to be successful in in vivo application of the aptamers in diagnostics and therapeutics. Finally, it also highlights major challenges and future directions in the application of aptamers in the field of veterinary medicine.

Abstract
Mastitis is the most important disease in the dairy industry. Antibiotics are considered to be the first choice in the treatment of the disease. However, the problem of antibiotic residue and antimicrobial resistance, in addition to the impact of antibiotic abuse on public health, leads to many restrictions on uncontrolled antibiotic therapy in the dairy sector worldwide. Researchers have investigated novel therapeutic approaches to replace the use of antibiotics in mastitis control. These efforts, supported by the revolutionary development of nanotechnology, stem cell assays, molecular biological tools, and genomics, enabled the development of new approaches for mastitis-treatment and control. The present review discusses recent concepts to control mastitis such as breeding of mastitis-resistant dairy cows, the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic tools, the application of communication technology as an educational and epidemiological tool, application of modern mastitis vaccines, cow drying protocols, teat disinfection, housing, and nutrition. These include the application of nanotechnology, stem cell technology, photodynamic and laser therapy or the use of traditional herbal medical plants, nutraceuticals, antibacterial peptides, bacteriocins, antibodies therapy, bacteriophages, phage lysins, and probiotics as alternatives to antibiotics.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis is a major health problem that affects dairy cows and has a negative impact on milk production. The presence of microRNAs in biofluids, such as blood and milk, could play a pivotal role in the detection of bovine mastitis. The purpose of the current study was to determine the levels of microRNA gene expression in milk, in combination with other reported mastitis indicators, as a biomarker of bovine mastitis. Milk samples (n = 171) were obtained from 113 dairy cows with known disease status (i.e., healthy; n = 23 cows, subclinical mastitis; n = 45 cows, or clinical mastitis; n = 45 cows) and analyzed for the presence of MIR24-2, MIR29B-2, MIR146A, MIR148A, MIR155, MIR181A1, MIR184, and MIR223 expression using the real-time PCR (qPCR) method. The expression data were then utilized in the creation of receiver operator characteristic curves (ROC) and further analyzed by the machine learning (ML) methods. MIR29B-2, MIR146A, MIR148A, and MIR155 expression levels differed significantly among the three groups. These potential microRNA biomarkers of mastitis exhibited high sensitivity and specificity. Next, we applied ML algorithm, specifically, a decision tree (DT) model to predict the status of milk based on MIR29B-2 and MIR146A expression levels. The results suggested that MIR29B-2, when used in combination with the California mastitis test (CMT) and days in milk (DIM) data, was applicable for screening and classification of milk samples from cows as healthy, subclinical mastitis, or mastitis. MIR29B-2 appears to have sufficient discriminatory power to enable it to be utilized as a biomarker in cases where the status of a milk sample cannot be determined based on CMT results.

Abstract
The surface protein overexpressed on cancer cells can be used as biomarkers for early detection of specific diseases. Anti-VCAM-1 and anti-IL4Rα DNA aptamers specific to VCAM-1 and IL4Rα receptors that are overexpressed in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice could be used as potential biomarker for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications in cancer biology. Cell Viability and luciferase assay of 4T1-Luc2 cancer cells in the presence of anti-VCAM-1 ssDNA or anti-IL4Rα RNA aptamers was assessed by monitoring the changes in the absorbance and the fluorescence of Alamar blue dye. The aptamer-conjugated SPIO magnetic beads, used for the selective targeting to tumor sites, were monitored using noninvasive MRI and Bioluminescence imaging (BLI). Cell viability and luciferase assays showed that both anti-VCAM-1 and anti-IL4Rα aptamers favor the depletion of cancer cells and limit tumor progression. Microscopic analyses confirmed that the target specific aptamers significantly trigger tumor cell apoptosis and limit cancer cell growth in vitro. The intravenous injection of SPIO nanoparticle-conjugated aptamers were further confirmed using noninvasive MRI and Bioluminescence imaging. Anti-VCAM1 and anti-IL4Rα aptamers, specific to VCAM-1 and IL4Rα receptors overexpressed in 4T1-Luc2 tumor-bearing mice, were used as diagnostic and therapeutic tools.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Salivary total protease and chitinase activities were measured by a broad-spectrum fluorescence resonance energy transfer approach as predictors of induction and resolution of gingival inflammation in healthy individuals by applying an experimental human gingivitis model. METHODS Dental biofilm accumulated (21 days, Induction Phase) by omitting oral hygiene practices followed by a 2-week Resolution Phase to restore gingival health in an experimental gingivitis study. Plaque accumulation, as assessed by the Turesky Modification of the Quigley-Hein Plaque Index (TQHPI), and gingival inflammation, assessed using the Modified Gingival Index (MGI), scores were recorded and unstimulated saliva was collected weekly. Saliva was analysed for total protein, albumin, total protease activity and chitinase activity (n = 18). RESULTS The TQHPI and MGI scores, as well as total protease activity, increased until day 21. After re-establishment of oral hygiene, gingival inflammation levels returned to values similar to baseline (day 0). Levels of protease activity decreased significantly, but not to baseline values. Furthermore, 'fast' responders, who responded immediately to plaque, exhibited significantly higher proteolytic activity throughout the experimental course than 'slow' responders, who showed a lagged inflammatory response. CONCLUSION The results indicate that differential inflammatory responses encompass inherent variations in total salivary proteolytic activities, which could be further utilised in contemporary diagnostic, prognostic and treatment modalities for periodontal diseases.

Abstract
Microscopic images of bovine milk somatic cells are used to classify neutrophils, epithelial cells, macrophages and lymphocytes. Using pattern recognition technology, the problem of classification and recognition is solved from different nature, levels and spaces. The proposed RKSGA-SVM algorithm is used to realize somatic cell image recognition. First, color, morphological and texture features of four types of cells are extracted separately, including geometric and moment invariant features. Second, ReliefF algorithm is used to calculate the weights of all features. According to preset cumulative contribution rate, the preliminary feature set is obtained. Third, redundant features are eliminated by Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KS) test, and the high-level optimization is obtained. The selected feature sets have remarkable distinguishing ability. Finally, the weighted optimal feature sets are obtained by weighted coefficient method on the advanced optimal feature sets. The overall accuracy of RKSGA-SVM algorithm is 99.00%, and Kappa coefficient is 0.987. The proposed algorithm has the advantages of balancing classification accuracy, eliminating redundancy and reducing feature dimension. On the premise of ensuring high classification accuracy, the feature set can reduce feature dimension and the amount of data calculation, improve operation efficiency and save storage space. Experiments show that the feature selection method proposed in this paper is feasible and more suitable for extracting feature sets in the process of somatic cell classification.

Abstract
Mastitis, an inflammation of the udder, is a challenging problem in dairy animals accounting for high economic losses. Disease complexity, degree of economic losses and increasing importance of the dairy industries along with public health concerns envisages devising appropriate diagnostics of mastitis, which can offer rapid, accurate and confirmatory diagnosis. The various diagnostic tests of mastitis have been divided into general or phenotypic and specific or genotypic tests. General or phenotypic tests are those that identify general alterations, which are not specific to any pathogen. Genotypic tests are specific, hence confirmatory for diagnosis of mastitis and include specific culture, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and its various versions (e.g. qRT-PCR), loop-mediated isothermal amplification, lateral flow assays, nucleotide sequencing, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, and other molecular diagnostic methods. However, for highly specific and confirmatory diagnosis, pure cultures still provide raw materials for more sophisticated diagnostic technological interventions like PCR and nucleotide sequencing. Diagnostic ability of like infra-red thermography (IRT) has been shown to be similar to California mastitis test and also differentiates clinical mastitis from subclinical mastitis cases. As such, IRT can become a convenient and portable diagnostic tool. Of note, magnetic nanoparticles-based colorimetric biosensor assay was developed by using for instance proteolytic activity of plasmin or anti-S. aureus antibody. Last but not least, microRNAs have been suggested to be potential biomarkers for diagnosing bovine mastitis. This review summarizes the various diagnostic tests available for detection of mastitis including diagnosis through general and specific technological interventions and advances.

Abstract
Mastitis is among the most common and challenging diseases of dairy animals. It is an inflammation of udder tissues due to physical damage, chemical irritation, or infection caused by certain pathogens. Bovine mastitis has been known for ages, but its complex etiology and multi-factorial nature make it difficult to control. Mastitis may have a negative impact on human health by inducing antibiotic-resistant pathogens that may spread, which is threatening. Researchers are continuously struggling to devise suitable methods for mastitis control. Management strategies are mainly focused on disease prevention by farm management which includes proper hygiene, trained staff to monitor minor changes in the udder or milk, and better diagnostic and treatment methods. New technologies which have the potential to unravel this complicated disease include improved diagnostic tools, based on advanced genomics or proteomics, prevention, based on vaccines and immune modulators, and metabolic products of probiotics such as bacteriocins and gene therapy.

Abstract
Bovine metabolic diseases are silent clinical conditions caused by a disturbance in normal cellular metabolic processes majorly due to the demand for nutrients, physiological stress and inflammation in lactating animals. Even though these are non-devastating diseases, conditions like mastitis and ketosis highly influence cow's lactation and fertility performance that leads to economic losses. Hence, in the present study, a combined detection including a sensitive paper-based colorimetric device for the rapid determination of somatic cells (SCC) and electrochemical detection of β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) in the milk samples has been developed. The working range was 1 × 105 to 2 × 106 for SCC and 0.05 to 2.5 mM BHB in which the normal and extreme cases of mastitis and ketosis values exist. The detection method is based on reaction using substrate 5-Bromo-indoxyl acetate (5BIA) and enzyme (BHB dehydrogenase) for the enzymes (esterase) and substrate (BHB) present in the milk samples during mastitis and ketosis respectively. An increase in blue color development was associated with an increase in the number of SCC; likewise, the increased voltage denoted the increase concentration of BHB in the samples. The repeatability was evaluated, and the % relative standard deviation (RSD) value <8.0 (n = 12). The limit of detection (LOD) was close to that achieved by a desktop spectrophotometer. The applicability of the developed kit demonstrated good sensitivity that can be deployed for other biological samples of interest. The proposed method provides a rapid, sensitive and promising tool for the regular monitoring of cows as a point of care tests (POC) at the field level.

Abstract
Accurate diagnosis of disease is the major step between the cause and cure of disease. An economical, reliable, and rapid diagnostic tool is fundamental for the management of udder health. The earlier the disease is identified, the less will be the damage; keeping this in mind, many efforts are being made to develop reliable diagnostic tools for use on farm. However, traditional gold standard methods including somatic cell count and microbial culturing are still in use. They are partially being replaced with polymerase chain reaction and sequencing-based tests. Nanotechnology and protein-based tests have also gained lot of attention and some of them are potential candidate of future diagnostic tests for bovine mastitis. Research laboratories are struggling to develop simple, economical, and user-friendly biosensor-based methods that can be performed on farm for rapid diagnosis. The combination of both genomic and proteomic approaches, together with further involvement of nanotheranostic technologies and other sensors, will assist in the quest of better mastitis diagnostic tools.

Abstract
Structural and functional development of the mammary gland is constant in the mammary gland life cycle. Eph receptors and their ligands, ephrins, control events through cell-to-cell interactions during embryonic development, and adult tissue homeostasis; however, little information on participation of ephrin A1, a representative ligand of the Eph receptor, in the development and function of normal mammary glands is known. In this study, we demonstrated functional effects of the ephrin A1-Eph system and mechanisms of its action on bovine mammary epithelial (MAC-T) cells. The in vitro cultured MAC-T cells expressed the ephrin A1 ligand and EphA1, A2, A4, A7, and A8 among the eight members of the Eph A family. Our results revealed that ephrin A1 induced MAC-T cell cycle progression and stimulated cell proliferation with abundant expression of nucleic PCNA and cyclin D1 proteins. Additionally, ephrin A1 induced activation of intracellular signaling molecules involved in PI3 K/AKT and MAPK signaling, and the proliferation-stimulating effect of ephrin A1 was mediated by activation of these pathways. Furthermore, ephrin A1 influenced expression and activation of various ER stress-related proteins and protected MAC-T cells from stress-induced cell death. Finally, ephrin A1 alleviated LPS-induced cell death through down-regulation of inflammatory cytokines. In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that the Eph A-ephrin A1 system is a positive factor in the increase and maintenance of epithelial cells in mammary glands of cows; the signaling system contributes to development, remodeling, and functionality of normal mammary glands and could overcome mastitis in cows and other mammals.
