Abstract

Zinc deficient goats revealed signs of alopecia, pityriasis, thickening of skin and foot sores. Marked reduction in plasma zinc and alkaline phosphatase activity, and Hb, pev, TEe and TLC were also observed. Single intramuscular administration of zinc oxide @ 200 mJanimal, suspended in long acting base (olive oil) resulted in significant improvement in clinical condition of animals with restoration of plasma zinc level and alkaline phosphatase activity.
