The aim of this study was to investigate the some trace mineral values on hoof in cows with hoof disease and comparison with healthy ones. Twenty-three Holstein dairy cows (hoof disease group (HD, 18 cases); control group (C, 5 cases) were studied. Determinations of Pb, Fe, Ni, Zn, Cd, Cu and Mn in the samples were carried out by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. Lead, Fe, Ni, Cd, Cu and Mn values were higher in group HD than group C, but just Pb, Ni, Cd, and Cu values were statistically significant. Zn value was lower significantly in group HD than group C. Sole ulcer (7 cases, 39%) was the most prominent hoof disease in group HD. In conclusion, we found that cattle which has various hoof diseases have lower level of Zn and higher levels of Pb, Ni, Cd, and Cu than the control group. Keeping in mind of trace mineral values would be useful for protection and treatment to hoof diseases in dairy cows.

Süt ineklerinde tırnaklardaki iz mineral düzeyleri tırnağın sağlığı için önemli midir?

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, tırnak hastalığı bulunan ineklerin tırnaklarındaki iz mineral düzeylerini belirlemek ve sağlıklı olanların değerleri ile karşılaştırmaktır. Çalışmada; 23 inek (18 tane tırnak hastalıklı, 5 tane sağlıklı) kullanıldı. Örneklerde Pb, Fe, Ni, Zn, Cd, Cu ve Mn düzeyleri hızlandırıcı eşleştirmeli plazma optik emisyon spektroskopi ile belirlendi. Kurşun, Fe, Ni, Zn, Cd, Cu ve Mn değerleri tırnak hastalıklı grupta kontrol grubundan yüksekti ama sadece Pb, Ni, Cd ve Cu değerleri istatistiki olarak önemliydi. Çinko değeri, tırnak hastalıklı grupta, kontrol grubundan istatistiki olarak düşük bulunmuştur. Taban ülseri (7 olgu, %35) tırnak hastalıklı grupta en fazla karşılaşılan hastalıktı. Sonuç olarak değişik tırnak hastalıkları bulunan ineklerin tırnaklarında sağlıklı olanlara göre düşük Zn; yüksek Pb, Ni, Cd ve Cu konsantrasyonu bulunduğu belirlenmiştir. İz element değerlerinin, süt ineklerinde tırnak hastalıklarından korunma ve sağaltımda göz önünde tutulması yararlı olacaktır
