Abstract: In the present study cows were screened 75th day before expected date of calving by using MCMT, somatic cell count and pH. Then positive cows for subclinical mastitis were randomly divided into four groups, each comprising of 8 cows. MCMT, SCC and pH evaluation were performed in milk samples of all the 32 cattle under therapy on day 0 pre-treatment (at drying off) and 7, 45 and 90 post treatment (after calving). The result revealed significant decrease in SCC and MCMT grading in all the treatment groups that reached towards normal after treatment. On the basis of MCMT grading and drastic reduction in SCC on 7th, 45th and 90th day post treatment in animals of group T3 (Ceftiofur hydrochloride and Internal Teat sealant) revealed highest recovery followed by T1 (Ceftiofur hydrochloride) and T2 (Teat sealant (Bismuth subnitrate) alone.
