Abstract
120 heads of korean native calves were examined of serum protein by using cellulose acetate electrophoresis. During 20 days since the calves were purchased, serum protein, fibrinogen values and plasma : fibrinogen ratio were examined in the calves with respiratory and diarrheal disease. The result obtained in this investigation were as follows : 1. Among the 120 heads of calves that were purchased from market, 14 heads(22%) of calves were occurred respiratory disease, and 12 heads(20%) of calves are occurred diarrhea. Occurrence of respiratory disease was 14.5(4~20) days in average and diarrhea was 9.6(2-15) days after they had been purchased. 2. Serum protein fraction were analyzed by cellulose acetate electrophoresis. ${eta}-globulin$, A/G ratio and ${eta}_2-globulin$ values were decreased in the calves with respiratory disease. Especially, ${eta}_2-globulin$ were significantly decreased. In calves with diarrhea, there was no change in ${eta}-globulin$ values. ${eta}_2-globulin$ values were higher than that of the normal and respiratory diseased calves. 3. ${alpha}-globulin$ values were increased in both of calves with diarrhea and respiratory disease. This tendency was due to increase ${alpha}_2-globulin$ values. 4. The $gamma$-globulin value of calves with diarrhea was the lowest among the 3 groups. 5. The total protein values of normal calves were $7.0{pm}1.1g/dl$ and that of respiratory and diarrheal diseased calves were $6.9{pm}0.9g/dl$ and $6.6{pm}0.8g/dl$, respectively. Total protein value of calves with diarrhea was lower than that of normal and respiratory diseased calves. Globulin value of calves with diarrhea was the lowest among them. The low value of total protein in diarrheal diseased calves was due to decrease globulin values. 6. The fibrinogen values of calves with respiratory disease ($643{pm}189mg/dl$) were significantly higher than that of normal calves($533{pm}135mg/dl$) and calves with diarrhea($572{pm}188mg/dl$). The plasma : fib. ratio of respiratory diseased calves was $12.0{pm}4.9$, normal calves was $13.8{pm}3.5$ and diarrheal diseased calves was $12.8{pm}4.6$. The ratio of the calves with respiratory disease was significantly decreased.
