Metabolic disorders in pregnant cows with subclinical ketosis

The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms of metabolic disorders developing in highly productive cows with subclinical ketosis. To achieve this, the level of a number of biochemical parameters in these animals and healthy cows was compared. Research was conducted at different farms of Omsk region in the period of 2012 - 2015, on 89 cows. Of these, 37 conditionally healthy animals and 52 cows of the dry shop with subclinical ketosis were isolated. In the blood of these animals were studied the number of red blood cells, leukocytes, hematocrit and hemoglobin content in red blood cells - the level of Malon dialdehyde, in the serum concentrations were determined P-hydroxybutyrate, glucose, phosphatidylcholine, acylglycerols, total protein, globulins, cholesterol, iron, calcium, phosphorus, lactic acid, uric acid, total and latent iron binding capacity, activity lactate dehydrogenase, y-glutamyltransferase and alkaline phosphatase by standardized laboratory methods...
