Results of mixed models showing the least square means of blood analytes. (a) Aspartate aminotransferase, (b) testosterone, (c) albumin and (d) cortisol for nine beef bulls with abscessed livers (…♦…) v20 bulls with normal livers (---□---) for each sampling time prior to slaughter (except for cortisol where the last sample immediately prior to slaughter was excluded). DB represents the average number of days (44+8) into the sampling period that corresponded with the day before slaughter. Differing subscripts represent P<0.05 overall the sampling period. The confidence limits for aspartate aminotransferase, testosterone, albumin and cortisol ranged from 54.29 to 70.58, 3.19 to 5.65, 29.24 to 32.73 and 30.08 to 55.02, respectively.
