Figure 2. Effect of Metritis on the Ability to Generate a Humoral Immune Response.

Figure 2.

Cows were immunized to hen egg lysozyme at the day of calving and again at days 14 and 28 relative to calving. Blood plasma was collected every fifth day starting at the day of calving and the presence of hen egg lysozyme specific IgG quantified by ELISA. Data represent 7 healthy cows (open circles) and 5 metritis cows (closed circles). Arrows indicate days of immunization. Data were analyzed using the Generalized Linear Mixed Model procedure and significance was assumed when P ≤ 0.05.
