The objective of this study was to determine the effect of propylene glycol supplementation as powder top dressing during the transition period on selected blood parameters in dairy cows and to evaluate the optimum time of the administration of this glucose precursor. Forty-eight Holstein-Fresian cows were divided into four groups: control with no glycol supplementation, glycol administered from day 14 before parturition until calving, glycol supplemented from calving to day 14 postpartum, and glycol fed from day 14 prepartum to day 14 of lactation. Blood samples were collected three weeks and then one week before parturition and on 14th, 56th, and 70th d of lactation, then concentrations of glucose, non-esterified fatty acids, cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin, and the activity of aspartate aminotransferase and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase were analysed. Propylene glycol, which was supplemented as top dressing during transition period, had no major effects on biochemical variables throughout this period. However, there was observed a positive glycol effect on glucose concentration and the activity of aspartate aminotransferase during lactation.
