Udder edema was studied in 9 affected and 3 control Holstein cows ranging in age from 2.5 to 8 years. A complete physical examination was done in conjunction with serum analysis for total protein, albumin, globulin, sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, and inorganic phosphorus 2 weeks before parturition, at parturition and 2 weeks following parturition. Mammary interstitial fluid samples also were obtained from cows with udder edema and analyzed for total protein, albumin, globulin, sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, and inorganic phosphorus. Clinical signs of udder edema appeared as early as 7 days prepartum and persisted for as long as 9 days postpartum. There were no significant differences in serum constituents between affected and control cows at the same stage of pregnancy or lactation. There was a significant difference (P less than or equal to 0.05) between serum and mammary interstitial fluid in the total protein, albumin, globulin and calcium concentrations.
对9头患乳房水肿的荷斯坦奶牛和3头对照荷斯坦奶牛进行了研究，这些奶牛年龄在2.5至8岁之间。在分娩前2周、分娩时和分娩后2周，结合血清分析总蛋白、白蛋白、球蛋白、钠、钾、氯、钙和无机磷进行了全面的体格检查。还从患乳房水肿的奶牛身上采集了乳腺间质液样本，并分析了总蛋白、白蛋白、球蛋白、钠、钾、氯、钙和无机磷。乳房水肿的临床症状早在产前7天就出现了，产后持续长达9天。在怀孕或泌乳的同一阶段，患牛和对照牛的血清成分没有显著差异。血清和乳腺间质液在总蛋白含量、白蛋白含量、球蛋白含量和钙浓度方面存在显著差异（P小于或等于0.05）。
