Abstract:
The current study aimed to estimate the mineral profile in cattle with clinical mastitis. a total of 16 animals involving 23 quarters exhibiting clinical manifestations of mastitis in were included. Clinical mastitis was observed high in 4^th parity, early lactation stage and in hind quarters. Mineral profile study in serum sample of both groups of 16 clinical mastitis affected animal’s revealed statistically significant increase (P˂0.01) in calcium and significant decrease in phosphorus levels where as non-significant difference in magnesium level compared to healthy control animals. Study on micro minerals in serum revealed that value of copper, manganese, zinc, and selenium was statistically significantly decreased in clinical mastitis animals compared to healthy control group.
