Abstract

The present study was undertaken in cows (n=830) of different districts of Himachal Pradesh to study the effect of different minerals and biochemical attributes on animal infertility. These profiles of different types of infertile (endometritis, anestrus, silent estrus and cows showing metestrual bleeding) cows were evaluated and compared with normal cyclic and pregnant animals. The collected blood samples were analyzed for calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, copper, zinc, sodium, potassium, ALT, AST, total protein, creatinine and cholesterol. Most of the minerals were found deficits in the blood of anestrus and silent estrus cows when compared to normal cyclic and pregnant animals.
