Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate pulmonary function test, acute phase proteins, pro-inflammatory cytokines, electrolyte balance and electrocardiographic alterations in BRD affected calves compared to pen matched healthy control calves. A total of 30 calves (20 BRD affected calves and 10 apparently healthy calves) were used in this study. The BRD affected calves showed significant (P
