Methodologies used in metabolic profiling have ranged from mean analysis of multiple analytes to proportional analysis of single analytes. Perparturient disease is a result of the cow's inability to maintain coordinated metabolism between lipid, glucose and amino acids. Use of pooled samples was evaluated as a method to collect usable information on herd metabolic status encompassing multiple parameters without the high cost of individual sampling. Aim of this study was to determine if diagnostic interpretation guidelines can be established for pooled metabolic profile samples.

 

Blood Profiles as Indicators of Nutritional Status

Blood tests from individual animals are routinely used to diagnose disease problems in dairy cattle. Veterinarians, producers and nutrition consultants alike seem to be interested in extracting pertinent information relative to herd nutrition and health status from blood tests. The Compton Metabolic Profile (CMP) has traditionally been used in this approach (10). The original intent of the CMP was to: 1. monitor metabolic health of the herd; 2. help diagnose metabolic problems and production diseases, and 3. identify metabolically superior cows (10, 11). A "metabolic profile" is defined as a series of specific analytical tests run in combination and used as a diagnostic aid (7).

Blood chemistry analyses are frequently used by veterinarians for disease diagnosis. Use of blood chemistries in the form of metabolic profiles to determine nutritional status has been advocated, but acceptance has been limited as a result of high cost and interpretation difficulties. Different criteria are needed using blood metabolite concentrations to determine disease potential compared to disease diagnosis.

 Ensiled forages are the most common feeds used on the dairy farm. Silages are used primarily due to their potentially lower harvest and storage nutrient losses. Silages allow for great flexibility in moisture content of feed at harvest.

The goal for a feeding program is the ensure consistency in its delivery and provision of high quality feeds. Feeding program diagnosticians need to be able to identify sources of variation. A previous presentation addressed forage quality concerns from a nutrient content perspective. This presentation describes additional diagnostic tools available to critically evaluate various aspects of a dairy's feeding system. Emphasis is placed on diagnostic methods for evaluating ensiled feed quality and aerobic stability.

Metabolic profile testing (MPT) refers to the use of a battery of tests for the diagnosis of subclinical nutritional and metabolic disease in dairy cows on a herd basis. Typically, blood samples from 5-7 animals per production group are tested for various analytes.

Metabolic disease incidence typically increases as milk production increases and as herds become larger. These factors favor the use of rigorous, quantitative monitoring of metabolic disease whenever possible. Fortunately, recent developments of herd-based tests plus new appliications of some old tests are now available for use in routine herd monitoring and for investigating dairy herds with metabolic disease problems. This allows the herd consultant to make recommendations based on objective data rather than subjective impressions alone.
