AB - The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of sub-clinical ketosis on certain physiological
parameters (temperature, respiration rate and pulse rate) of goats. A total of 210 pregnant and lactating goats
were screened for sub-clinical ketosis. Goats having blood ketone (β-hydroxybutyrate) >0.4 mmol L1 and
glucose <30 mg dL1 were considered positive for sub-clinical ketosis. Out of 210 goats 30 animals were
diagnosed as sub-clinical ketotic. Affected goats were divided in to four groups for physiological studies with
six animals in each group and another six animals were kept as healthy control for comparative studies. Goat
suffered from sub-clinical ketosis had non significant change (with in normal limit) physiological parameters
from healthy animal. The above result manifested that there is no remarkable alteration in physiological
parameters in sub-clinical ketosis testifying the fact that physiological parameters changes only in clinical form
of the disease.
