Dairy Science Abstracts is a fully searchable abstracts database that covers international research on all aspects of dairy science and technology, including the production, composition and processing of milk and dairy products, and their use in human nutrition. All mammalian species and their milk products are covered.

Breeding, nutrition, physiology of lactation and diseases of dairy animals are covered in the abstract database, as well as housing, economics and the treatment and disposal of farm and dairy wastes.

The online version of Dairy Science Abstracts is updated weekly and includes highly targeted, searchable summaries covering key English and non-English language journal articles, reports, conferences and books. The online version includes a fully searchable backfile to 1973 of over 352,000 research summaries and more than 13,000 full text documents. Over 10,000 summaries are added to the database each year.

The print version of Dairy Science Abstracts is published monthly and a typical issue contains about 600 abstracts, indexes of authors and subjects , as well as citations.
