Prevention of New Intramammary Infections During the Dry Period

Sureseal is a proven intramammary teat sealant designed for dairy cows at drying off. It helps prevent new intramammary infections during the non-lactating (dry) period and reduces the risk of mastitis post-calving.

For cows considered free of sub-clinical mastitis, Sureseal may be used on its own as part of a dry cow management program. In cows with sub-clinical infections, it can be used in combination with antibiotic therapy under veterinary guidance.

Key Benefits

  • Prevents new infections during the dry period

  • Reduces the risk of mastitis after calving

  • Forms a physical barrier against bacterial ingress

  • Can be used alone in low-risk cows or with antibiotics when required

  • Suitable for maiden heifers approximately 4 weeks before calving

 

Product Presentation

  • Pack size: Tub containing 120 syringes

  • Syringe size: 4 g applicator

  • Active ingredient: 650 mg/g Bismuth Subnitrate

 

Dosage & Administration

  • Administer immediately after the last milking at drying off.

  • Strip udder and disinfect each teat thoroughly before application.

  • Infuse one full syringe per teat.

  • Do not massage or squeeze the teat after infusion, as this may dislodge the seal.

  • Wear clean gloves and maintain strict hygiene to avoid introducing infection.

For maiden heifers: Administer one syringe per teat approximately 4 weeks prior to calving.

Combination use with antibiotics: If cows are diagnosed with sub-clinical mastitis, administer a suitable dry cow antibiotic first, then re-disinfect the teat and apply Sureseal.

Cow Selection Guidelines

Veterinary clinical judgement should be used when selecting cows for treatment. Selection may be based on:

  • Mastitis history

  • Somatic cell count records (all counts below 250,000 cells/mL in the last 3 recordings)

  • Recognised sub-clinical mastitis tests

  • Bacteriological sampling

Withdrawal Periods

  • Milk: Do not use in lactating cows or within 4 days of calving.

    • Colostrum and milk from treated cows must not be used for human consumption for 96 hours (8 milkings) after calving.

  • Meat: Zero (0) days withdrawal.

Usage Recommendation

Sureseal is most effective when used as part of a whole-herd mastitis control plan. Work with your veterinarian to integrate it into your dry cow therapy strategy.
