Background: Selenium supply plays a major role in calf rearing, as a deficiency can lead to health problems, economic loss, and even death. Therefore, postnatal selenium injections are often administered as a preventive measure.
Objective: In this study, we examined the serum selenium concentrations of healthy and sick calves within the first days of life.
Background: An adequate supply of trace elements is very important for equine neonates, as deficiencies can lead to health problems and even death.
Objective: This study investigated serum concentrations of selenium (Se), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) in neonatal foals up to the 8th day of life. The influences of disease, age, and failure of passive transfer (FPT) on these concentrations were analyzed.

Article Synopsis
- A Dahomey-Ox had a skin problem called eosinophilic dermatitis on its private area due to an allergic reaction to an insect bite.
- This is the first time scientists have tested for allergies in cattle using special skin and blood tests.
- The report helps us understand more about how insect allergies affect cows.
