Resumo

The serum biochemical values allow to establish reference used in metabolic and clinical evaluations of calves, reducing losses in cattle breeding. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of age on serum biochemical profile in Senepol calves, at the first 120 days of age. The experiment was conducted in the city of Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil, in four periods after birth (0-15, 30, 60 and 120 days of age). Blood samples were obtained by jugular venipuncture for determination of serum total protein, albumin, globulin, triglycerides, cholesterol, AST, GGT, FA, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, creatinine and urea. Cholesterol remained at minimum reference values or below throughout the experiment. Animals at 30 days showed the lowest values of protein concentrations, minerals and triglycerides that normalized up to 60 days of life, except to albumin that slower recovery was showed. Our data showed that the serum biochemical profile in Senepol is influenced by age up to 120 days of age; moreover there are differences with other breeds.
