Abstract
This work was carried out to study clinical and biochemical aspects of field cases of ewes and does suffering from pregnancy toxaemia. The first signs observed were anorexia and depression which may be followed by locomotor disturbances (incoordination and star gazing), recumbency, blindness, coma and death. Laboratory findings of present data showed ketonuria, lower serum values of glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, magnesium and albumin. Higher serum çortisol, free fatty acids, urea, liver enzymes, alpha and gamma globulins were observed. The obtained data were tabulated and discussed.
