Abstract:
The clinical research was conducted in three groups comprising 32 buffaloes presented to Veterinary College, Bidar. In group I (13) healthy buffaloes, group II (13) buffaloes with ruminal indigestion and group III (6) buffaloes with foreign body syndrome (FBS) were evaluated. Haematobiochemical examination was carried out to evaluate parameters viz. Haemoglobin, Packed Cell Volume, Total leucocyte count, Total erythrocyte count, Differential leucocyte count, Total protein, Aspartate aminotransferase, Calcium and phosphorous whereas in rumen liquor parameters namely pH, microflora density/field and microflora motility were evaluated in buffaloes. Haematobiochemical examination revealed non-significant changes in Haemoglobin, PCV, TEC and Eosinophils in group II and group III buffaloes. Significant increased total leucocyte count, neutrophil count and decreased lymphocyte count in group III buffaloes was observed. In group II buffaloes significant decreased total protein was observed. Significant increased aspartate aminotransferase, decreased calcium and phosphorous values were observed in group II and III buffaloes. Rumen liquor examination revealed increased pH to 8.01±0.22 and 7.58±0.28 in buffaloes of group II and III respectively whereas decreased microflora motility and density/field was observed.
