The influence of probiotic administration on selected leukocyte subpopulations and the serum amyloid A concentration in the peripheral blood of dairy cows during different lactation periods
The activity of the immune system in cows receiving the probiotic was higher than in control cows. However, the stabilisation of the immune system of the supplemented cows may be indicated by the persistence of a low level of SAA throughout the experiment. Therefore, it can be assumed that the immune system of cows treated with the probiotic more easily adapts to changes in conditions in particular lactation periods and that these cows become more resistant to infectious diseases.
