Blood and biochemical profiles of animals can be used to evaluate the physiological state of an individual and relate it to that individual’s health. In many countries, water buffaloes are currently evaluated using blood parameters from other bovine species. To accurately interpret the biochemical results from individual animals, species-specific reference ranges should be established. One hundred and twenty-eight water buffaloes, without clinical signs of disease and of different ages, were analyzed, and reference intervals were calculated (95% CI; p < 0.05). The data were analyzed according to three age groups (calves, young animals, and adults) and the infection status (infected or uninfected with Trypanosoma spp.). All the biochemical values of total serum proteins, aspartate aminotransferase, gamma globulin, urea nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus were included; these are parameters that are generally affected by parasites or by infection with hemotropic agents. Natural infection with Trypanosoma spp. gave rise to differences (p < 0.05) in terms of increased calcium and decreased total protein, alkaline phosphatase, and aspartate aminotransferase. Thus, it can be inferred that the infection follows a chronic course in the affected animals, in this case, young animals or young animals.
Introdução: Os perfis sanguíneos e bioquímicos de animais podem ser usados para avaliar o estado fisiológico de um indivíduo e relacioná-lo com a saúde desse indivíduo. Em muitos países, os búfalos são atualmente avaliados usando parâmetros sanguíneos de outras espécies bovinas. Para interpretar com precisão os resultados bioquímicos de animais individuais, os intervalos de referência específicos da espécie devem ser estabelecidos. Método: Foram analisados 128 búfalos, sem sinais clínicos da doença e de diferentes idades, e calculados os intervalos de referência (IC 95%; p < 0,05). Os dados foram analisados de acordo com três faixas etárias (bezerros, novilhos e adultos) e o estado de infecção (infectado ou não por Trypanosoma spp.). Todos os valores bioquímicos de proteínas séricas totais, aspartato aminotransferase, gamaglobulina, nitrogênio ureico, cálcio e fósforo foram incluídos; estes são parâmetros que geralmente são afetados por parasitas ou por infecção com agentes hemotrópicos. Resultados: A infecção natural por Trypanosoma spp. originaram diferenças (p < 0,05) em termos de aumento de cálcio e diminuição de proteína total, fosfatase alcalina e aspartato aminotransferase. Com isso, pode-se inferir que a infecção segue um curso crônico nos animais acometidos, neste caso, animais jovens ou novilhos.
