Plasma electrolyte, protein and metabolite levels in Nigerian White Fulani cattle under two different management systems.

Plasma electrolyte, protein and metabolite concentrations were determined in White Fulani cattle kept under intensive and extensive systems of management in Nigeria. The total protein and albumin values were significantly higher (p < 0.02 and p < 0.

Biochemical indices in white Fulani (Zebu) cattle in Nigeria.

The values of 14 biochemical indices in the serum of "normal" White Fulani Cattle were determined. Thus, additional information was provided on bicarbonate, urea, creatinine, SGOT, SGPT and alkaline phosphatase. The values obtained were compared with those of other estimates on indigenous and exotic cattle.
