GUPTAAbstract The aim of the present study was to find out the serum protein profile of upgraded Murrahbuffaloes in different lactation stages. The blood samples were collected from 12 healthylactating upgradedMurrah buffaloes in early (0-13 weeks), mid (14-26 weeks) and late (27-40 weeks) lactation stages andseparated serum was analyzed for total protein, albumin, globulin, albumin: globulin ratio, urea, uric acidand creatinine. All the constituents under study differed significantly within the respective means amongstthe three stages of lactation with exception of albumin:globulin ratio. The values of total serum protein,globulin and uric acid were decreased significantly throughout the lactation period while urea andcreatinine increased significantly with progress of lactation. Serum albumin was decreased from early tomid stage then increased from mid to late lactation. |
