“…This finding is consistent with a previous study (Guzel and Tanriverdi, 2014). However, it is inconsistent with other reports (Amle et al, 2014;Sabasthin et al, 2012). Cholesterol is a steroid and is a precursor of the steroid hormones that include sex hormones (Berg et al, 2002).…”

“…It has been reported that there is no significant difference in the plasma TP levels between the RB and NC cows (Guzel and Tanriverdi, 2014;Kurykin et al, 2011). However, some studies have reported that the plasma TP of RB is significantly lower than that of the NC buffaloes and cows (Amle et al, 2014;Sabasthin et al, 2012). Moreover, the plasma urea was shown to be higher in RB than NC cows in previous studies (Kurykin et al, 2011;Sabasthin et al, 2012).…”

“…For instance, the blood glucose level was shown to be lower in RB than normal cycling (NC) cows and buffaloes (Guzel and Tanriverdi, 2014;Sabasthin et al, 2012). In addition, it has been reported that there are lower plasma cholesterol levels in RB than NC buffaloes and cows (Sabasthin et al, 2012;Amle et al, 2014). Nevertheless, Guzel and Tanriverdi (2014) have reported that there is *Corresponding author.…”

Repeat breeder (RB) is a cow that fails to conceive from three or more successive insemination, but with normal estrus and absence of detectable clinical abnormalities. It is one of the major problems in dairy production. In the present study, the plasma biochemistry of Sudanese crossbred RB cows was examined. Plasma glucose, total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerol (TG), total protein (TP) and urea nitrogen were estimated with the spectrophotometer while the plasma levels of Cu, Zn, Fe, and Mn were estimated using the atomic absorption spectroscopy. The results indicate the plasma levels of glucose, Zn, Mn and Fe of RB were significantly lower (P < 0.05) than that of the normal cyclic (NC) cows. Moreover, the plasma level of urea nitrogen of RB was significantly higher (P < 0.05) than that of the NC cows. According to the obtained results, it can be concluded that correcting the plasma glucose, Zn, Mn and Fe as well as lowering the urea nitrogen may be a part of an effective strategy for treatment of repeat breeding syndrome in Sudanese crossbred cows.

“…Blood urea levels among RB dairy cows have been reported as being higher than levels in fertile cows owing to unclear mechanisms (Pandey et al, 2009). However, Amle et al (2014) stated that blood urea nitrogen did not differ in RB and normally cycling cross-bred dairy cows in India. On the contrary, Ali et al (2014) related that a group of non-pregnant dairy cows exhibited comparatively lower blood urea levels compared with a pregnant group.…”

This study aimed to find correlations between blood glucose and urea levels and the duration of postpartum period (PPP), number of services per conception (S/C), open period (OP), conception rate (CR) to first service, and the overall CR in 80 multiparous cross-bred dairy cows. The two metabolites were measured 1, 4, 7, 10, and 13 weeks postpartum. The CR to first service and overall CR were 13.8% and 42.8%, respectively. Based on S/C, three groups were identified: Group 1 (G-1) (n = 11) consisting of cows that conceived from first service; G-2 (n = 46) representing cows that needed two inseminations to conceive; and G-3 (n = 23) consisting of repeat breeders (RB). G-1 represented 13.8%, with PPP and OP shorter than cows in G-2 and in G-3, and had blood glucose levels 17.5% and 27.9% higher than levels in G-2 and in G-3, respectively. Until the 7th week postpartum, blood levels of urea were higher in G-1 and lower in G-3. However, in the 10th and 13th weeks postpartum, results were reversed. The PPP, S/C, and OP were negatively correlated with blood glucose over the study period and with blood urea at the first seven weeks postpartum. However, these traits were positively correlated with blood urea measured at 10 and 13 weeks postpartum. It can be concluded that, from this study, maintaining high blood glucose until the 13th week postpartum, high blood urea during the first 7 weeks postpartum, and low blood urea during the 10th and 13th weeks postpartum were associated with good fertility in dairy cows. ______________________________________________________________________________________

“…Blood metabolic profile is commonly used as indicators of health as well as nutritional status of animals (Amle et al, 2014). It is imperative to confirm clinical diagnosis and estimate the severity of diseases metabolic changes during different stages of lactation is of paramount importance so as to provide adequate nutrients for optimizing milk productivity of the animals.…”
