The interaction between milking machine and milking procedures, associated with risk of mastitis are discussed, with special emphasis on pre and post-milking routines. The importance of teat-end integrity to minimize bacterial infection is based on biological findings that have been integrated into practical farm milking routines and practices over the last few decades.
