Abstract

It has been observed that during the transition period cows experience oxidative stress which may contribute to periparturient disorders and may be associated with metabolic diseases. Vitamin E and selenium (Se) play vital role in reduction of oxidative stress and maintain the health of living animals. The concentration of MDA was significantly (P<0.05) lower in Vit.E + Se supplemented group as compared to control group in stage-I, II and III (late pregnancy, recent parturition and early postpartum) during transition period in Kankrej cattle. However, in the treatment group the SOD level was significantly (P<0.05) reduced as compared to control group at stage of recent parturition.
