“…The blood variables related to CBC panels (RBC, Hb, MCHC, RETIC, WBC, MO) showed greater differences than was observed in other reports, however, these differences were considered to be normal physiological changes in young calves (15,18). Moreover, although Fib and SAA in this study were higher than those reported in previous studies, similar Fib and SAA values were also reported in Hanwoo calves of similar ages (3,13). The number of calves for RI calculation was too small to present the exact RI in Hanwoo calves; nevertheless, further analysis was conducted because the RI in this research was considered to be reliable.…”

This study was conducted to identify the useful blood variables in diagnosing calf diarrhea in Hanwoo calves and good indicators for calf diarrhea. In 530 Hanwoo calves, fecal scores were recorded on a scale of 0 to 3, and blood samples were collected and analyzed for hematology, serum biochemistry, and acute phase proteins. Among the blood variables, 16 blood variables showed significant differences (p < 0.01) according to fecal scores. After reference intervals of these 16 blood variables were calculated, the distributions of calves by calculated reference intervals showed a significant difference (p < 0.001) and linear associations (p < 0.001) in blood urea nitrogen (BUN), glucose (GLU), blood sodium concentration (Na), blood potassium concentration (K), fibrinogen (Fib), and haptoglobin (Hp). Of 6 blood variables, the optimal cut-off values were calculated for BUN, K, Fib, and Hp, and the area under the curve was 0.5 or more: BUN (9.5 mg/dL, AUC: 0.623), K (5.8 mmol/L, AUC: 0.599), Fib (650.0 mg/dL, AUC: 0.706), and Hp (12.5 mg/dL, AUC: 0.847). These findings could be useful in evaluating calves with diarrhea and making decision of further treatment of calf diarrhea in Hanwoo calves.
