Abstract
Since identification and subsequent reproduction of pulmonary aspergil losis in calves by Dutta (1938), the disease has not been adequately s tudied in India. Gill and Singh (1977) claimed the successful reproduc tion of disease in buffalo-calves. These reports are, however, silent on haematological and biochemical aspects. This study was undertaken t o elaborate haematological and biochemical alterations both in sera an d bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in calves infected either with Aspergil lus fumigatus spores or spores plus mycelia.
