“…However, high dietary Co supplementation may affect both milk production and fatty acid composition(Karlengen et al 2013). Correspondingly, we have observed a trend to increased serum Co levels in high-productive cows(Sizova et al 2024).…”

“…Grazing outdoors on perennial ryegrass pasture was shown to be associated with higher milk Ca levels as compared to indoor housing on a total mixed ration (Gulati et al 2018). The observed increase in Ca levels in the pasture period corresponds to higher Ca level in pasture grass in comparison to hay, silage, and chow administered during the feedlot period (Sizova et al 2024).…”

“…The levels of I, Co, and certain minerals are also expected to be low in pasture plants thus increasing the risk of their insu cient intake (Masters et al 2019). The levels of essential trace elements and minerals in dairy cow serum were also different in the feedlot and pasture periods (Sizova et al 2024). The composition of pasture grass was also shown to affect the intake of trace elements and its content in milk (Gulati et al 2018).…”

The objective of the present study was to evaluate serum trace element and mineral levels in low- and high-productive dairy cows during feedlot and pasture periods. Serum trace element and mineral levels were assessed inductively-coupled plasma mass-spectrometry. The obtained data demonstrate that serum Ca, Mg, K, and Na levels increase significantly in the pasture period, and this increase is more evident in high-productive cows. In turn, circulating levels of B, Co, Cr, Fe, I, and Se levels were characterized by a decrease in the pasture period. Despite the lack of group differences in the feedlot period, serum B, Cr, and Fe levels in the pasture period were higher in high-productive cows. In turn, circulating Co and I concentrations in the low-productive cows exceeded those in high-productive animals. Finally, the levels of toxic trace elements in the pasture period were found to be higher in low-productive cows. Discriminant analysis demonstrated that the groups of cows with different milk productivity were clearly discriminated in the pasture but not feedlot period. In addition, multiple regression analysis revealed a significant inverse and positive association of serum Pb and Cr levels with daily milk yield. Taken together, the obtained data demonstrate that the differences in serum trace element and mineral levels between the low- and high-productive cows are more profound in the pasture period. More beneficial trace element and mineral profile in high-productive cows may hypothetically contribute to higher milk yield. However, further more detailed studies are required to elucidate the mechanisms of this association.

“…In recent decades, human hair analysis has been used to estimate the levels of trace minerals and toxic elements in groups and individuals [17][18][19][20], as hair is a fundamental biological specimen that is convenient to collect, transport, and store [21,22]. In animals, hair samples collected from dogs [23], horses [24], reindeer [25], and cows [26][27][28] were recently used to investigate the correlations between trace minerals and immune responses, health conditions, and diseases.…”

Reproduction, especially impregnation, is a critical aspect of dairy cow management that directly influences herd milk productivity. We conducted a noninvasive hair mineral assay to compare the mineral profiles of two dairy cow groups: reproducible and repeat breeder, by investigating the levels of 11 essential minerals (Ca, Mg, Na, K, Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn, Cr, Se, and P) and 6 toxic elements (Hg, Pb, Cd, Al, As, and Ni) in both groups. We also conducted principal component and correlation matrix analyses to compare hair mineral patterns between the groups. Compared to their reproducible counterparts, repeat breeder cows had lower levels of Na, K, and Se. However, Fe, Cd, Al, and As levels were higher in repeat breeders than in their reproducible counterparts. The correlation matrix showed notable correlation patterns for each group. Ca, K, and Na levels were positively correlated in reproducible cows, whereas repeat breeder cows showed positive correlations only between Ca and K levels. Se showed positive correlations with Zn only in the reproducible cow group. Negative correlations were not found in the reproducible group, whereas the repeat breeder group exhibited 7 negative correlations. Despite the limitations of hair mineral analysis, this study provided useful insights into the reproductive potential of dairy cows. These findings aid in easing the prediction of repeat breeder occurrences in herds and are expected to facilitate timely mineral supplementation and other interventions to improve overall herd reproduction in dairy farms.
