Seasonal Changes in the Antioxidant Activity and Biochemical Parameters of Goat Milk.

Goats are ubiquitous, including in hot and dry regions, while also being very sensitive to climate fluctuations, expressed in temperature differences. This affects their productivity and milk quality. Adaptation to heat requires high energy costs, affects "neurohumoral" regulation and is accompanied by oxidative stress with the increased production of free radicals.

Metabolic Profile of Sow Blood Serum after Weaning.

The aim of our research was to determine the content of protein, carbohydrate, lipid, and mineral metabolites, as well as an antioxidant status of the sow's blood after weaning and to calculate the correlation between these parameters. The experiment was carried out on twenty clinically healthy crossbred sows (Yorkshire Landrace). Twenty sows were allocated to one of two groups: (1) 1 day after weaning (group 1,  = 10) and (2) 8 days after weaning (group 2,  = 10).

Correlations between Antioxidant and Biochemical Parameters of Blood Serum of Duroc Breed Pigs.

Correlations between the major biochemical (BC) and antioxidant (TAWSA) parameters of pigs' blood are necessary to study in order to assess physiological-biochemical status (PhBS), animal health, production, etc. Blood samples were obtained from Duroc breed boars ( = 77), divided into groups 1 ( = 25), 2 ( = 40) and 3 ( = 12), which were fattened for 65, 72 and 100 days, respectively. Significant positive and negative correlations were found between TAWSA and BC parameters of pigs' blood for group 3: very high in the case of total protein (TP) (-0.
