  1. The Liver/kidney function related biomarkers of dairy cows with LDA or healthy cows (Control) were shown in the table. Healthy Holstein cows, n = 20; LDA Holstein cows, n = 30. The results are expressed as the mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, compared with respective values in control (healthy) group
  2. ALT Alanine aminotransferase, AST Aspartate aminotransferase, GGT γ glutamyl transpeptidase, LDH Lactate dehydrogenase, TBIL Total bilirubin, DBIL Direct bilirubin, IBIL Indirect bilirubin, TP Total protein, ALB Albumin, GLO Globulin, BUN Blood urea nitrogen
