Prognostic potential of pre-partum blood biochemical and immune variables for postpartum mastitis risk in dairy cows
Prognostic potential of pre-partum blood biochemical and immune variables for postpartum mastitis risk in dairy cows
Mastitis is the most frequent diseases for transition cows. Identification of potential biomarkers for diagnosis of mastitis is important for its prevention. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate blood variables related to lipid metabolism, oxidative stress and inflammation, and serum variables that are related to health in postpartum cows.
