Since the milk ejection reflex was described by Ely and Petersen (1941), several studies have been carried out in ruminants, in order to evaluate the optimal way of stimulating milk letdown. Proper premilking teat preparation is essential for the production of high quality milk. This chapter aims to clarify the mechanisms that are on the basis of the milk ejection reflex in buffalo species, taking into account teat sanitation and premilking stimulation.

Abstract

Since the milk ejection reflex was described by Ely and Petersen (1941), several studies have been carried out in ruminants, in order to evaluate the optimal way of stimulating milk letdown. Proper premilking teat preparation is essential for the production of high quality milk. This chapter aims to clarify the mechanisms that are on the basis of the milk ejection reflex in buffalo species, taking into account teat sanitation and premilking stimulation.
