Blood Biochemical Levels Based on Prolificacy Level in Batur Sheep of Indonesia
Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science and Agriculture Research - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 03
Abstract
The aim of the research was to compare the blood biochemical levels of Batur sheep based on their proliferation rate. The research used 52 Batur ewes having 2 parities from a sheep farming group in Batur District, Banjarnegara, Central Java - Indonesia. This study was conducted based on a survey method designed into 3 groups of prolification. The sheep samples used in this study have adapted to the local environment fed with basal forage as grass and vegetable waste. Drinking water was given ad libitum. The observed variables include glucose, albumin, blood urea, creatinine, cholesterol and total protein levels in sheep. The data were analyzed using the Kluskal Wallis test. The results of the study showed significant (P<0.01) in albumin, blood urea and creatine levels, significant (P<0.05) in glucose and total protein levels and no significant (P>0.05) in cholesterol levels in the 3 prolificated groups. The highest levels were in glucose at 38.32 mg/dl, albumin 0.74 g/dl, blood urea 36.68 mg/dl, cholesterol 59.29 mg/dl, creatinine 0.083 mg/dl and total protein 14.37 g/dl. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that different levels of prolification in sheep have significant differences in blood biochemical levels.
