Abstract: | Inflammation is caused by the release of chemical mediators from tissues and migra-tory cells. These mediators include leuco-trienes and prostaglandins (PGs), which are generated from arachidonic acid (Vane & Botting 1987). Elevated concentrations of arachidonic acid metabolites have been found in experimental and spontaneous ma-stitis, which indicates that these substances may have a role in the pathophysiologic process of mastitis (Anderson et al. 1985, Atroshietal 1986). |
