Abstract

The present study was aimed at evaluation of oxidative stress in diaphragmatic hernia affected buffaloes subjected to trans-abdominal diaphragmatic herniorrhaphy (n=10), Comparisons were made with their own base values and index values from healthy buffaloes. Significant rise in oxidative stress parameters viz. reduced glutathione (27%), melondialdehyde (22%), PCV (3%), oxidative stress factor (50%). copper (120%), alongwith significant reduction in zinc (46%) and marginal reduction in serum inorganic phosphorus and manganese concentrations in blood were observed at 48h post-herniorrhaphy interval as compared to base and index values.
