Abstract:
Blood samples were collected from nine dairy cows admitted to uterine flushing.
Blood collection was repeated 7 times, starting 15 days before partum and
ending 28 days after partum. A complete hematological examination and a
phagocytosis test were performed on whole blood; on serum, haptoglobin (Hp),
total protein, glucose, NEFA and beta-OH butyrate (BOHB) were measured.
Within two weeks after parturition six cows showed endometritis. These cows
showed a reduced number of leucocytes before partum and decreased
phagocytic activity at partum. At the onset of the symptoms of the endometritis,
a decrease in leucocyte number and an increase in haptoglobin concentration
were observed. However, Hp levels increased about parturition also in healthy
animals. A significant negative correlation was observed between phagocytic
activity and NEFA and BOHB.
