Blood indicators are used as a tool to diagnose metabolic disorders. The present work was conducted study the relationships among blood of lipomobilization and hepatic function in high-yielding dairy cows. Two groups Holstein cows were studied: 27 early lactation 14 mid from four different herds with similar husbandry characteristics Galicia, Spain. samples obtained measure beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), triglycerides (TG), activity aspartate transaminase...
Oxidative stress (OS) plays a key role in the initiation or progression of numerous diseases, and dairy cows undergo OS at transition period. However, discrepancies between methodologies make it difficult to comparisons studies, therefore research on this topic may not be implemented farms. This study aims test under field conditions use an oxidative index (OSi) as combined measurement through ratio pro-oxidants antioxidants throughout period Serum samples high-yielding were taken, markers...
The aims of the study were to evaluate toxic and essential metal concentrations in meat offal from pigs north-west Spain compare these with reported other countries cattle this region, relate observed maximum acceptable concentrations. Samples 63 aged 6 months randomly collected at slaughter. After acid digestion, levels metals determined by ICP-OES ICP-MS. As regards metals, mean liver, kidney muscle 0.073, 0.308 0.009 mg kg(-1) fresh weight for cadmium, 0.004, 0.008 0.003 lead, 0.013,...
The aims of this study were to determine the levels some toxic and trace metals in cattle meat Spain compare them with concentrations elsewhere maximum acceptable levels. Arsenic, cadmium, lead, copper zinc liver, kidney muscle (meat) from 438 calves (6–10 months old) 56 cows (2–16 years slaughtered Galicia (NW Spain) 1996 quantified. arithmetic mean fresh weight calf respectively 0.043, 0.055, 0.004mg/kg for arsenic, 0.032, 0.070, 0.001 mg/kg 0.053, 0.052, 0.009 64.6, 4.91, 0.677mg/kg 47.7,...
Summary Post‐parturient insulin resistance ( IR ) is a common feature in all mammalian animals. However, dairy cows, it can be exacerbated because of high milk yield, leading to excessive negative energy balance, which related with increased disease incidence, reduced production and worsened reproductive performance. has been extensively investigated humans suffering from diabetes mellitus. In these subjects, known that oxidative stress OS plays causative role the onset . Although occurs...
Background Exacerbated postparturient insulin resistance (IR) has been associated with several pathologic conditions in dairy cattle. Oxidative stress (OS) plays a causative role IR humans, and an association, but not direct relationship, between OS recently reported transition Hypothesis Supplementation antioxidants shortly before calving improves glucose tolerance after parturition Animals Ten late‐pregnant Holstein cows entering their 2nd to 5th lactation. Methods Randomized...
The increasing frequency of copper (Cu) toxicosis episodes in cattle recent years, mainly associated with excess Cu supplementation, underscores the need to identify animals clinically silent phase hepatic accumulation. aim study reported here was evaluate suitability various blood parameters as potential early markers accumulation cattle. Paired liver and samples from 70 calves aged 6 10 months were obtained at slaughter a region northwestern Spain where usually have concentration higher...
