The objectives of the present work were to estimate the microbial protein production using the total purine derivatives (PD) excretion, to compare the PD and the urea excretions, obtained from spot urine collection with that observed in the 24 h collection and to evaluate the plasma and milk N-urea and urea urinary excretion. 16 Holstein lactating cows were assigned to four 4x4 Latin Square with a 3 week period in accordance with the lactation period.
