内容説明
The metabolic profile test is widely used in veterinary medicine, and is a counterpart to similar tests in human medicine. It was invented in the late 1960s as a means of diagnosis for various forms of production disease in dairy cows, but has now been extended to all animals. This book is a survey of developments in the field. It emphasizes the difference in concept from similar tests for humans, where individual abnormalities are important; in animals the tests are applied on a group basis - for example, herds or groups within herds. The test detects not only clincial and sub-clinical production disease, but also indicates such things as lack of exercise and limiting factors for growth. Fertility and welfare can also be monitored. Veterinarians; advanced first-degree students of veterinary science, and clinical science.
