[Total protein, urea and blood sugar in healthy calves and calves with diarrhea].

Studied was the amount of the total protein, the urea, and the blood sugar in both normal calves and calves that were affected with enteritis with frequent isolates of pathogenic Escherichia coli strains and corona and rotaviruses. Stated are the normal values of these indices in calves aged from 1 to 6 days as well as from 7 to 15 days. It was found that with diarrhea-affected calves there were hypoproteinaemia, rise of urea, and very commonly encountered drop of blood sugar in the course of the diseases.
