Abstract:
Hematological changes associated with diarrhea in calves were intended for this study. The experiment started from September 2019 to Feb 2020. The study was conducted on 163 calves, ranging between 1-2 months of age. The samples were collected from 24 calves with E.coli diarrhea and 6 healthy calves for comparison after the treatment of all the groups with Quercetin which is a known antioxidant and Echinacea purpurea for 7 days. Blood samples were analysed for blood components and biochemical parameters in serum. The study showed a significant increase (p<0.05) in white blood cells but no significant change was noted hemoglobin and TEC indicating an alteration in the immune system of calves to respond to the existing infection.
