At the same time thechemotactic index of PMN cells showed a significant· decline for 2 weeks. Decline in phagocytosis and killing percentage started on 3rd day and persist ed through the 2nd and 3rd weeks. No changes have been recorded for IgM, but IgG started to decline after one week and continued for 2 Weeks. Milk parameters recorded decrease in milk protein for two weeks and elevation in milk urea for one week and decline in milk lactose for 3 days.
