N2  - IL 8 is a neutrophil chemoattractant that plays important role in the regulation of inflammatory responses. The role of IL 8 in the Staphylococcus aureus mastitis has drawn considerable attention in the last years. The level and extent of the IL 8 transcriptional activity was considered vital to be monitored. Bovine TaqMan® real time PCR was employed to examine the IL 8 mRNA transcriptional activity in cattle experimentally infected with Staphylococcus aureus at the time points 0, 7, 24 and 32 hrs post infection. The level of IL 8 transcriptional activity increased at 24 hrs post infection, however non significantly
