The geometric mean cell count of goat’s milk in mid-lactation was 880 × 10 cells/ml and 690 × 10 cells/ ml estimated by the Direct Microscopic Count (DMC) and the Electronic Cell Count (ECC), respectively. The numerous cell fragments in goat milk may have had an influence on the results obtained by the cell counting methods compared. A highly significant correlation (P < 0.001) existed between the results obtained by the above mentioned methods, and the California Mastitis Test. If routine surveys are done on milk samples of goats, a CMT score of 1, 2 or 3 should be regarded as normal in the mid-lactation. A higher CMT score may indicate an abnormal condition of the udder. In the diagnosis of mastitis in goats great attention should be paid to the difference in cell content between milk samples from halves of the same udder.
通过直接显微镜计数（DMC）和电子细胞计数（ECC）估计，泌乳中期山羊奶的几何平均细胞数分别为880×10⁶个细胞/毫升和690×10⁶个细胞/毫升。山羊奶中大量的细胞碎片可能对所比较的细胞计数方法获得的结果产生了影响。上述方法与加利福尼亚乳房炎检测（CMT）所获得的结果之间存在高度显著的相关性（P < 0.001）。如果对山羊奶样进行常规检测，泌乳中期CMT评分为1、2或3应视为正常。较高的CMT评分可能表明乳房状况异常。在山羊乳房炎的诊断中，应高度重视同一乳房两半部分奶样之间细胞含量的差异。
