Abstract: A treatment composition for treating or preventing bovine mastitis, the treatment composition characterized in that it includes at least two components which have an isoelectric point of or above substantially 6.8 and is extracted from milk, or a milk derived substance.

Abstract: An instrument for use with fluid which includes a mixing element, and a container to hold the fluid to be mixed, characterised in that the mixing element includes a sensor that assists to measure a parameter of fluid.

Abstract: A treatment composition for treating or preventing bovine mastitis, the treatment composition characterised in that it includes at least two components which have an isoelectric point of or above substantially 6.8 and is extracted from milk, or a milk derived substance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a medicament including a treatment composition in combination with at least one anti-inflammatory composition, characterised in that the treatment composition is extracted from whole milk, processed milk or milk derived substance, and wherein the treatment composition contains a cationic fraction which includes two or more components of the whole milk, processed milk or milk derived substance with an isoelectric point of or greater than substantially 6.8.

Abstract: A medicament for the treatment or prevention of a microbial infection or an associated condition in a low oxygen environment characterised in that the medicament includes an extended acting oxygen generating system.

Abstract: A robotic milking system includes a stall wherein dairy animals enter one at a time to be milked automatically. A holding tank receives successive measures of milk from successive dairy animals. Separation devices receive the successive measures of milk from the holding tank to separate components from the milk.

Abstract: A milking machine of a kind having a milk line to a milk receiver through which a vacuum is drawn, the machine being operable in (i) a milking mode and in (ii) a cleaning mode, wherein there is provided a cleaning line for cleaning fluid into the milk line, and wherein, when the machine is in its cleaning mode, cleaning fluid pooling and/or pooled in the cleaning line is caused to move (wholly or in part) under the action of a gas (e.g. ambient air) impulse into the pooling and/or pooled cleaning fluid from the cleaning line into the milk line and preferably the milk receiver. In moving from the cleaning line into the milk line which is of greater cross-section the fluid under the action of a transition zone flaring from the smaller conduit into the larger conduit, and a transition zone flushing flow flaring means flares to the surface of the milk line.
