The authors studied the course of serum proteins during the first week and the first month of life in the calf in order to obtain useful information for neonatal care. Eight Limousine calves, four males and four females, clinically healthy, were used. Blood samples were taken at the same hour (09:00), and the serum concentrations of albumin, globulins, and total proteins were determined by means of automated multiparametric agarose gel electrophoresis system. Data analysis of variance showed a significant effect of days of life (P is less than 0.05), only on albumin, alfa1-globulins, and alfa2-globulins during the first month of life.
