Vets

Overview of services

NML offer vets a variety of milk, blood and tissue testing services for a variety of diseases including Johne’s, BVD, IBR, IBR-gE, Leptospirosis, Neospora and Liver Fluke.  Furthermore, mastitis services are offered which include both qPCR testing and plant hygiene bacteriology.  Testing with NML offers numerous advantages. In particular, bulk milk samples are stored for payment purposes and vets can gain access to samples and results where suitable authorisation has been granted. 

Logical approaches to testing

NML offers the CHeCS accredited Herdwise scheme for Johne’s testing within dairy herds.  This is a fully integrated testing regime that can be implemented between NMR’s milk recording and NML’s disease testing. 

NML also recommends its BVD monitor.  This is a logical open testing protocol that provides a cost effective way to monitor BVD within both dairy and beef herds. 

Both schemes take the hard work and monotony away from the testing and allow vets to concentrate on the application of the results to form tangible solutions for the farmer.
