The present study was planned to investigate haemato-biochemical alterations in buffaloes affected with gastrointestinal tract atony. The study was carried out in 50 clinical cases of non-traumatic, primary gastrointestinal tract atony in buffaloes. Eight apparently healthy buffaloes were included in the study which constituted the control group. Haematological alterations in buffaloes affected with atony of gastrointestinal tract revealed significant higher total leucocyte count, neutrophils and significantly lower lymphocytes than the apparently healthy buffaloes. The diseased buffaloes had significantly higher level of serum aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, glucose, creatinine and total proteins levels along with significantly lower serum calcium, potassium and chloride levels than the buffaloes of control group. The present data may be utilized for suggesting therapeutic regimen for the treatment of animals affected with gastrointestinal tract atony. | Investigations on Haemato-biochemical alterations in buffaloes affected with gastrointestinal tract atony
