Popis: The investigation was undertaken to study some biochemical changes and cortisol levels in lameness among indigenous breeds of goats in Nigeria. Serum samples of 72 lame goats randomly selected were sampled from some villages in Ibadan, Oyo state, Nigeria. Analysis of the serum samples for biochemical parameters was estimated by commercially available standardized diagnostic kits. Glucose was analyzed using the spectrophotometry procedure. Cortisol level was estimated by Immuno chemiluminescence microparticle assay method using diagnostic products of IMMULITE diagnostic products corporation, Los Angles. Cross-bred goats possessed better values for most of the biochemical analytes, a significant difference was seen in ALT with a higher value of 14.5±3.54 in Cross-bred goats at (P
