Hematobiochemical profile in Surti goats during post-partum

Abstract
Aim:
The study was undertaken to find out the changes in
hematobiochemical profile in post-partum Surti goats.
Materials and Methods:
The present study was conducted on 40 Surti goats out of which
20 goats who had undergone recent parturition acted as treatment
group and 20 non-pregnant animals comprised control group. Blood
samples were collected from the treatment group on 0, 7, 14, 21,
30, and 45 days post kidding and once from the control group.
Blood samples were analyzed for hematological parameters such as
hemoglobin (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV), total erythrocyte
count (TEC), total leukocyte count (TLC), differential leukocyte
count, and biochemical metabolites such as total protein (TP),
albumin, globulin, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG),
non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA), glucose, and urea.
Results:
Hb level was the highest on the 45th day and lowest on the day
of parturition. Significantly low level of Hb, PCV, and
lymphocyte was found on 0 day and significantly high level was
found on the 45th day. TEC was also low on the 0 day and high on
the 45th day post kidding, but the difference was
non-significant. Mid-sized cells and granulocyte percentage
decreased significantly from 0 to 45th day post-partum. TP,
albumin, and urea were found to be lowest on 0 day and highest
on 45th day post-partum. Urea concentration increased parallel
to TP indicating an increase in urea production with catabolism
of protein. The globulin concentration also increased from 0 to
45th day post-partum, but the difference was non-significant. TC,
TG, and NEFA were the highest on 0 day and lowest on the 45th
day post-partum. Decrease in TC and TG from 0 to 45th day
post-partum indicates that the animals utilized the lipids for
the supply of energy for milk production. High level of NEFA
acts as an indicator of negative energy status but in the
present study, the high glucose level on 0 day
indicates that the animals were in positive energy status. The
glucose concentration decreased up to 14th day post-partum and
then started increasing from 21st day onward.
Conclusion:
Hematobiochemical parameters are indicative of health status of
animals. Significantly low values of Hb, PCV, and TLC during
first 2 weeks post-partum are indicative of stress. Catabolism
of protein occurred during 2 weeks post-partum, as observed from
increase in urea concentration. Decrease TGs and high level of
NEFA during the transition period are suggestive of utilization
of lipids for the supply of energy. High glucose level on 0 day
indicates that the animals were in positive energy status.
