The study was undertaken to determine and compare the biochemical profile and its correlation with milk production in cattle. The study was done on each of six Gir, Kankrej and Crossbred cattle. The animals were divided in to three groups viz. 0-90 days of lactation (Group I), 91-180 days of lactation (Group II) and 181 till dry stage (Group III). Blood was collected aseptically before and after milking. The plasma biochemical estimations were carried out on BS - 120 Chemistry Analyser (Mindray) using the diagnostic kits. The values of glucose, more in Gir, as compared to Kankrej and crossbreds, while cholesterol, total proteins and albumin, were higher in crossbreds as compared to two other breeds. Stages of lactation had significant effect on all biochemical parameters except albumin. Non-significant differences were observed between the milking phases in all the stages and the breeds under study, however all the biochemical parameters were higher in after milking phase.
