Was reading an article in which it states that milk contains a certain amount of pus from cows with mastitis. Apparently the infection of the udder and teats is caused by overmilking and stress on the cows which produces lots of white blood cells to fight infection which is pus. Yuck!

Most of it is filtered out of the milk by the cow but some slips through. Eu regulations permit up to 400 pus cells per litre in milk. Dont matter wheather its full fat or low fat apparently. Thats not part of the ingrediants on the pack!

Pus is formed by the collection of large numbers of white cells called
polymorphonuclear cells in a localised area of the body in response to
the presence of bacterial infection. These cells break down and
release chemicals that kill the bacteria as well as cause enlargement
of the blood vessels (inflammation) and attract more white cells to
the "fight."

So pus is just white blood cells.
