Blood samples were collected from v. jugularis in five-day intervals from parturition to postpartum day 45 in the rearing conditions of a dairy cow production herd, consisting of 10 groups with 10 pluriparous cows each (crossbreds of Bohemian Pied cattle with Holstein-Friesian cattle). In blood serum the following activities were determined photometrically: aspartate aminotransferase - AST (0.36-0.47 microkat.l-1), gamma-glutamyl transferase - GMT (0.50-0.83 microkat.1-1) and lactate dehydrogenase - LD (7.22-9.10 microkat.1-1); their average values were at an almost constant level. Only did Ast and GMT values decrease slightly from day 25 after parturition. The glucose average content on the day of parturition (4.07 mmol.1-1) steeply decreased to postpartum day (2.79 mmol.1-1), and later on, it increased irregularly. The average values of total protein (66.7-73.2 g per 1) slightly increased from postpartum day 20. The values of urea (2.33-2.37 mmol.1-1) and bilirubin (3.49-5.15 mmol.1-1) did not show any larger changes in dependence on the time elapsing from parturition. The average content of creatinine (124-162 mmol.1-1) increased irregularly from postpartum day 15 and then it decreased. Cholesterol concentrations were gradually increasing from 2.58 mmol.1-1 on the day of parturition to 4.99 mmol.1-1 on day 45 after parturition. The average contents of calcium (2.20-2.66 mmol.1-1) and phosphorus (1.75-2.27 mmol.1-1) were irregularly increasing until day 20 after parturition. Also the average content of magnesium (0.86-1.15 mmol.1-1) rose from day 25 after parturition.
