This study aimed to investigate the effect of interaction between total (SCC) and differential somatic cell count (DSCC) on milk yield, composition and coagulation traits from individual dairy cows. A total of 159 224 test-day records (daily milk yield, composition and coagulation traits) have been collected during a period of 14 months from 12 849 Holstein-Friesian and 9275 Simmental cows farmed in 223 herds. The interaction between somatic cell traits was highly significant for almost all the evaluated traits. This study showed that the combined use of SCC and DSCC can be employed for assessing the performances of dairy cows and for monitoring the improvement of milk quality.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effect of interaction between total (SCC) and differential somatic cell count (DSCC) on milk yield, composition and coagulation traits from individual dairy cows. A total of 159 224 test-day records (daily milk yield, composition and coagulation traits) have been collected during a period of 14 months from 12 849 Holstein-Friesian and 9275 Simmental cows farmed in 223 herds. The interaction between somatic cell traits was highly significant for almost all the evaluated traits. This study showed that the combined use of SCC and DSCC can be employed for assessing the performances of dairy cows and for monitoring the improvement of milk quality.
