Abstract
Aim:
The objective of the present study was to compare serum as
well as follicular fluid (FF) biochemical and hormonal profiles
along with hematological parameters in postpartum estrus, anestrus,
and cystic buffaloes.
Materials and Methods: Postpartum buffaloes were selected in
three different groups (within 40-60 days of parturition at
estrus-Group-I, postpartum >90 days at anestrum-Group-II, and
postpartum cystic buffaloes in Group III). The animals selected
were examined for follicular wave dynamics by routine trans-rectal
ultrasonography and FF was collected by transvaginal
ultrasound-guided ovum pick up technique. All hematological and
biochemical parameters were analyzed by automatic analyzers while
hormonal profiles analyzed by commercially available ELISA kits.
Results: In the present investigation, estrum and anestrum
animal differ significantly in hemoglobin levels. Serum estradiol
differs significantly in estrus and anestrus while no significant
difference in progesterone concentration was noted among all three
stages. The results of our study suggest that significant higher
increase in total protein (TP), calcium and glucose values in
estrum while urea, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine
aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase significantly higher in
anestrum animals.
Conclusion: The conclusion of the present study is that TP and
albumin, calcium, urea, glucose affects oocyte development and
quality.
Keywords: biochemical, buffalo, follicular
fluid, hematology, ovum pick up.
