Abstract:
In the present investigation blood samples were collected aseptically from 35 diarrhoeic goats from different farms of southern Rajasthan. Hematological parameters indicated significant (p>0.001) decrease in haemoglobin, packed cell volume, total erythrocyte count, and Mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular haemoglobin. There was significant (p>0.001) increase in total leucocyte count, absolute lymphocyte, neutrophil, basophil and monocyte count. Serum biochemical indices indicated significant (p>0.05) hypoproteinemia & hypoalbuminemia. The serum level of alanine amino transferase and gammaglutamyl transferase were highly significantly (p>0.001) as compared to control (apparently healthy) goats. It was concluded that significant (p>0.001) haemato-biochemical changes are associated with diarrhoea in goats.
