Abstract
The effect of a synthetic oxytocin (CIBA) on the intramammary pressure (I.M.P.) of dairy cows was studied by the use of a polygraph equipped with a pressure transducer. The I.M.P. of each quarter of the udder was found to be 19 to 20 mm Hg before milking and 11.5 to 12.5 mm Hg after milking. Intravenous injection of oxytocin (25 I.U.) caused an increase of 95% in I.M.P. prior to milking and an increase of only 18% after milking.
