MONITORING METABOLIC PROFILE PARAMETERS DURING ADAPTING DISEASES IN CATTLE

摘要

Stress as a biological phenomenon is not identified as a pathological status. The limits in which an organism can adapt to stress factors are bound by parameters which are set by resources inside the body that should allow life preservation. Still, limits are dictated by genetic programming through the extreme situations which the body has encountered throughout it's evolution and yet has not stopped surviving and multiplying. In intensive breeding, production override and other stress factors such as global warming led to the apparition of real adapting diseases expressed by nutritional and metabolic disorders which are difficult to diagnose and treat. Metaphilaxy is a modern concept which includes prophylactic measures to ensure animal welfare through zoo-hygienic confort, the selection of animals which are enduring to the new breeding techniques, control of morbid subclinical conditions (infections of the mammary gland, nutritional end metabolic disorders), birth rescheduling and others.
