description <b>Aim:</b> This study was conducted to investigate the effect of a mastitis vaccine with non-labelled vaccination regimen on the milk somatic cell count (SCC) in primiparous and multiparous cows at different stages of lactation.<p> <b>Material and Methods:</b> In the study, 97 healthy Holstein cows were included and the cows were vaccinated on day 0 (d 0), 21 days later (d 21) and 90 days thereafter (d 111). Individual and bulk tank milk samples were collected for SCC analysis on the 30th day prior to the 1<sup>st</sup> vaccination and on the 30<sup>th</sup> day after the 2<sup>&#8319;d</sup> and 3<sup>rd</sup> vaccinations.<p> <b>Results:</b> Bulk tank milk somatic cell counts (BTMSCC) at prevaccination, and after the 2<sup>&#8319;d</sup> and 3<sup>rd</sup> vaccinations, were 467, 246, and 371 x1000 cell/ml, respectively. It was observed that average milk SCC was numerically decreased after the 2<sup>&#8319;d</sup> and 3<sup>rd</sup> vaccinations, with respect to pre-vaccination level (p>0.05). Unremarkable declines in individual SCC (iSCC) were observed in the cows at early, mid or late lactation periods (p>0.05). While the decline in iSCC was numerically in the multiparous cows, it was found to be significant after the 2&#8319;d vaccination in the primiparous cows (p<0.01). Yet, the iSCC values obtained after the 2&#8319;d and 3rd vaccinations were similar (p>0.05).<p> <b>Conclusion:</b> Results suggested that commercial mastitis vaccine with non-labelled vaccination regimen led to a decline in SCC in the milk, particularly in the primiparous cows and in bulk tank milk.
