Calcium Blood Level Tests

Calcium levels graph
Listed below (Table 1.0) are some blood level test results obtained on cows using Cal Drench Plus. The tests were performed before administration of Cal Drench Plus to determine existing Calcium levels in the blood. Tests were then performed 15 minutes and 30 minutes after the administration of Cal Drench Plus. Tests were performed on cows within 2-4 hours of freshening.
The blood tests were analyzed by the laboratory of Myrtle Werth Medical Center.
