320 blood serum samples in duplicate from 64 female buffalo calves were chemically analysed for Calcium, Phosphorus, Copper, Zinc and Manganese.
These animals were divided into four groups and each group was further sub divided into two sub groups respectively. Eight animals were placed in each sub group. Sub groups of first group consisted of 5th and 6th, sub groups of second group 7th and 8th, sub groups of third group 9th and 10th, and sub groups of fourth group 11th and 12th quarters of their age respectively.
These animals were put on same plan of nutrition for thirty days before starting the experiment.
20 ml., blood was drawn aseptically from the jugular vein. The blood was allowed to coagulate and serum was separated for analysis. Inorganic phosphorus and copper were analysed in the blood serum by the Merko test kits, Calcium by flame photometer, Zinc and Manganese by atomic absorption spectrophotometer.
Biometry and ovarian activity of the third and fourth groups were recorded.
Non significant (P>O.05) difference was observed for calcium, phosphorus, copper and zinc in all the groups while significant (9<0.05) difference was existed for manganese in the groups.
significant correlation (r = 0.72* P <0.05) was observed for phosphorus with the size of the graafian follicle while correlation ( r = 0.62, r = 0.40 r=0.58 and r= 0.57 9>0.05) for calcium, copper, zinc and manganese was negative respectively.
