摘要

JEREMY HEIM LIKES HAVING MASTITIS INFOR-amation at his fingertips Heim has been culturing suspected quarters for mastitis pathogens for about two years And he's doing it right on the dairy. In as little as 24 hours, Heim has the culture results in hand and can make an informed treatment decision at Heim's Hillcrest Dairy, a 340-cow operation in Kewaunee, Wis. Otherwise, he would have to wait two or three days for results to come back from his veterinarian before he could take appropriate treatment action.
