The study was undertaken on clinical cases of bovine mastitis presented to Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex (TVCC), F.V.Sc & A.H, SKUAST-K and adjoining areas during the course of study August 2014-May 2016. For therapeutic trials, the clinical cases of mastitis were divided into two groups. In Animals of Group I therapeutic regimen I was used conducted and included 15 clinical cases of mastitis, in Group II animal’s therapeutic regimen II was used and included 12 clinical cases of mastitis. The animals of group II were given self-formulated anti-oxidant trace mineral mixture. Group II animals were not given any anti-oxidant trace mineral mixture. Mastitis is characterised by change in the milk SCC and DCC as evidenced by the present study. Further supplementation of anti-oxidant trace minerals results in early amelioration of milk SCC and DCC as evidenced by normal values in the group supplemented with anti-oxidants as compared to the group not supplemented with anti-oxidants. The requirements of trace minerals like Cu, Zn, Mn and Se are increased in mastitis as evidenced by their decreased levels in clinical mastitis and improved clinical response on their supplementation. Anti-oxidant trace minerals like Cu, Zn, Mn and Se significantly aid recovery in bovine mastitis and may play a significant role in prophylaxis of mastitis in lactating animals.
