Summary:The purpose of this study was to test a modification of antipyrine test in calves. The experiment was carried out on 10 calves. Each subject received on days 10 and 20 of life, respectively, 15 mg.kg*[-1] body mass of antipyrine as an intravenous bolus injections, followed by its oral administration "in substantia" in gelatin capsules 48 hours later. The concentrations of antipyrine in their saliva were repeatedly detrmined. Based on the complete kinetics studies, mean variables for antipyrine were as follows: half-life -12.00+/-1.12 h, metabolic clearance-0.75+/-0.06 ml/min/kg (10-day-old calves) and 10.00+/-0.89 h; 0.80+/-0.07 ml/min/kg (20 day-old calves).
