| Resumo: | Aiming to assess the relationship among hepatic function, lipid profile and endometrium inflammatory disorders (acute postpartum endometritis, placental retention and genital catarrhal discharges), 126 blood samples were collected from Holstein cows. Hepatic function was assessed by total serum protein, albumin, globulins, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) and bilirubin measurement. Lipid profile assessment was measured by serum levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, non-esterified fatty acids and β-hydroxybutyrate. The results indicate that the albumin values of cows presenting placental retention and chronic puerperal endometritis are lower than those of health cows.KEYWORDS: Acute postpartum endometritis, bovine, genital catarrh, hepatic function, Holstein, lipid profile, placental retention. |
