Abstract :In this study serum beta-hydroxybutyric acid, glucose, total protein, triglyceride, cholesterol, non-esterified fatty acids, acetylcholinesterase and tumor necrosis factor-α were investigated in cows with ketosis. The study material consisted of 10 control and 10 group with ketosis, total 20 holstein dairy cows of 10 control and 10 groups with ketosis, a total of 20 holstein dairy cows aged between 3 and 7 years. In this study serum concentration was measured for nonesterified fatty acids, beta-hydroxybutyric acid, aspartate aminotransferase, total protein, cholesterol, triglyceride, acetylcholinesterase and tumor necrosis factor-α in the healthy group and cows with ketosis. Serum glucose, triglyceride, nonesterified fatty acids, acetylcholinesterase and tumor necrosis factor-α did not differ significantly between the two groups. Aspartate aminotransferase and beta-hydroxybutyric acid increased, while cholesterol and total protein concentration decreased in ketotic cows compared with healthy cows. Consequently, acetylcholinesterase and tumor necrosis factor-α concentrations may prove beneficial biochemical findings in cows with ketosis.
