Read article at Massey Research Online:

Bovine mastitis is a very important disease in dairy cattle, costing the New Zealand Dairy Industry more than $180,000,000 per year. The amount of bovine mastitis on a farm is determined by the number of infections present in cows and duration of each infection. Mr Petrovski investigated strategies to reduce the number of infected cows by helping to develop and apply a novel preventive treatment. He also helped develop treatments to shorten the infection duration for cows already infected. Implementation of some of these mastitis treatments he could significantly reduce current losses of cattle and milk production in the New Zealand Dairy Industry.
