Least squares means (± SE) of SCC traits according to the bacteriological status. DSCC = differential SCC; PMN-LYM = polymorphonuclear neutrophils-lymphocytes; MAC = macrophages; logPMN-LYM count was expressed as log₂[(PMN-LYM count)/100,000] + 3; macrophage (logMAC) count was expressed as log₂(MAC count/100,000) + 3. Neg = samples negative at the bacteriological examination; Sa + = samples positive for Streptococcus agalactiae at the bacteriological examination; P + = samples positive for Prototheca at the bacteriological examination.
