Abstract

The mammary blood flow of dairy cow is very closely related to the milk yield and its nutritional components. Therefore, the correctness and accuracy of the mammary blood flow measurement is the basis for the subsequent studies on milk synthesis and precursor uptake. The purpose of the present paper was to summarize the vessels structure of the mammary gland and the main measurement methods for the blood flow, and also to provide some references for studies on the lactation and related researches in dairy cows.
