A split-plot design with repeated measures was used to test the relationship between visual teat skin condition score, the degree of transepidermal water loss from the skin, and the colonization by Staphylococcus aureus on experimentally chapped and inoculated teats of 20 lactating Holstein cows. Visual teat skin chapping score and the number of S. aureus colonies obtained from a teat skin swab were correlated (r = 0.53). Transepidermal water loss and S. aureus count were not correlated (r = 0.02). Results indicated that visual teat skin evaluation is superior to measurements of transepidermal water loss in the prediction of the susceptibility of teat skin to colonization by S. aureus.
采用重复测量的裂区设计，以检测20头泌乳期荷斯坦奶牛试验性皲裂和接种乳头的视觉乳头皮肤状况评分、皮肤经表皮水分流失程度与金黄色葡萄球菌定植之间的关系。视觉乳头皮肤皲裂评分与乳头皮肤拭子中获得的金黄色葡萄球菌菌落数相关（r = 0.53）。经表皮水分流失与金黄色葡萄球菌计数不相关（r = 0.02）。结果表明，在预测乳头皮肤对金黄色葡萄球菌定植的易感性方面，视觉乳头皮肤评估优于经表皮水分流失测量。
