چکیده
University of Veterinary Medicine and Pharmacy, Košice, Slovak Republic (Received 1 March 2013) The aim of this study was to evaluate the serum proteins electrophoretic pattern and the concentrations of acute phase proteins in calves with chronic bronchopneumonia. Twenty-eight calves with clinical symptoms of disease were included into the evaluation. Blood serum was analyzed for total protein concentrations (TP), total and relative values of serum protein fractions, albumin/globulin ratio (A/G) and the concentrations of selected acute phase proteins – haptoglobin

The serum protein electrophoretic pattern and acute phase protein concentrations in calves with chronic respiratory diseases.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the serum protein electrophoretic pattern and the concentrations of acute phase proteins (haptoglobin, serum amyloid A, and fibrinogen) in 28 calves with clinical signs of chronic respiratory diseases and 36 healthy calves as a control group. In sick calves we found significantly higher serum concentrations of total proteins (P < 0.001), lower concentration...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes in the serum concentrations of haptoglobin (Hp), serum amyloid A (SAA) and IgG, IgA in calves with diarrhea caused by rotavirus, coronavirus, Escherichia coli F5 and Eimeria species. The experiment was carried out on 40 diarrhoeic and 10 non-diarrhoeic calves (group C). A total of 13 calves were infected with rotavirus or coronavirus (group ...
متن کاملEffects of dietary energy and starch concentrations for newly received feedlot calves: II. Acute-phase protein response.
Two hundred forty five market-stressed bull and steer calves (205 +/- 14 kg) were received in January and September 2001 to determine the response of acute-phase proteins to dietary energy and starch concentrations and to determine whether acute-phase proteins could be used as a diagnostic or prognostic tool for calves affected by bovine respiratory disease. On arrival, calves were randomly ass...
متن کاملAcute phase proteins as local biomarkers of respiratory infection in calves
BACKGROUND Cumulating reports suggest that acute phase proteins (APPs) do not only play a role as systemic inflammatory mediators, but are also expressed in different tissues as local reaction to inflammatory stimuli. The present study aimed to evaluate presence and changes in luminal lung concentrations of the APPs haptoglobin (Hp), lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP), C-reactive protein ...
متن کاملEffect of water salinity on total protein and electrophoretic pattern of serum proteins of grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella
In this study the effects of water salinity on serum total protein and its components in grass carp were investigated. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of salinity tolerance of fish on total serum protein level and its components as an indicator of liver and kidney activity. One hundred and twenty grass carp were divided into four groups, randomly. The first three groups were r...
