dc.description.abstractThe present study was undertaken on 30 recently calved cows with different post parturient diseases comprising 6 healthy control and 24 disease animals, divided into four groups with six animals in each group viz., Group I (healthy control), group II (indigestion), group III (mastitis), group IV (metritis) and group V (hypogalactia) to evaluate rumen profile (colour, odour, pH, SAT and MBRT), haematological (TEC, Hb, PCV, TLC, lymphocyte and granulocyte), serum biochemical changes (AST, GGT, glucose, BUN, creatinine, albumin, total protein, cholesterol, triglycerides and total bilirubin) and ultrasonography of liver also studied in healthy control and study groups. Majority of the affected cattle had abnormal colour, odour, increased pH, reduced protozoal density, increased SAT and MBRT was indicative of rumen dysfunction. Leukocytosis was noticed in mastitis and metritis along with lymphopenia and granulocytosis when compared with healthy cattle suggesting of infection whereas heamogram in all the affected were within normal physiological limits. Significant increase in the AST, triglycerides, total bilirubin and hypocholesteraemia indicating moderate fatty infiltration, hypoglycaemia, hypoalbuminaemia and decreased BUN concentration were suggestive of hepatic dysfunction. In liver ultrasonography, hyperechogenic liver parenchyma and vascular blurring was observed in all affected groups were suggestive of moderate fatty infiltration. Hence ultrasonography may be recommended instead of invasive techniques for diagnosing liver abnormality.en_US
