Some observations on "paralytic myoglobinuria" of cattle in Britain.
Characteristics of 44 outbreaks of "paralytic myoglobinuria" in yearling cattle reported to veterinary investigation centres during 1974 and 1975 are described. The clinical syndrome and associated nutrition and management of cattle are discussed in the light of present knowledge of this disease with particular reference to the diagnostic and epidemiological value of plasma creatine phosphokinase and blood glutathione peroxidase activities.
