- Abstract
Blood samples from cows with anestrous were collected for hematological, biochemical and humoral immune status analysis. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was higher and hemoglobin (Hb %) percentage was lower in anestrous cows than normal cycling control cows. The packed cell volume (PCV %) was lower in anestrous cows compared with the control cows. Total erythrocyte count was not significantly different between two groups of cows. The total leukocyte count was significantly higher in anestrous cows than control cows. The bilirubin concentration was significantly higher in anestrous cows compared with control cows. The mean serum immunoglobulin (IgG) was lower in anestrous cows than control cows. It is suggested that there is no specific hematological and biochemical marker for anestrous in zebu cows.
