Abstract: The present invention is generally in the field of methods, compositions, and devices for reducing the incidence of mastitis in an animal. More specifically the invention includes methods and compositions for creating a physical barrier on the teat surface or in the teat canal of an animal for prophylactic treatment of mammary disorders. In one embodiment, the methods and compositions are designed for use during the animal's dry period. In one embodiment, the methods and compositions are designed for placement in the teat cistern. In one embodiment, the methods and compositions are designed for placement in adhering to the external teat.

Abstract: A composition comprising a macromer that can be in situ polymerized into a hydrogel wound dressing directly on a wound and one or more antimicrobial agents intended to achieve bacteriostasis and/or be bacteriocidal. The antimicrobial agent is released upon application and trapped in the hydrogel upon its formation and also released over a period of time into the wound.
