| Abstract: | The blood biochemical and ruminal fluid parameters of 5 buffaloes showing omasal impaction were studied, together with 10
healthy buffaloes as control. The diseased buffaloes had significantly higher serum aspartate aminotransferase, bilirubin,
glucose, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, total protein, globulin and fibrinogen levels and significantly lower plasma calcium,
potassium and chloride concentrations than the controls. The ruminal liquor of the diseased buffaloes revealed characteristic
physical, chemical and microbial changes and had significantly higher methylene blue reduction time and ammonia-nitrogen level. |
