Abstract Background In domestic animals many biochemical and physiological processes exhibit daily rhythmicity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the rhythmic pattern of salivary and serum urea concentrations in sheep. Methods Six 3-year-old female sheep kept in the same environmental conditions were used. Sheep were sampled at 4 hour intervals for 48 consecutive hours starting at 08 00 of the first day and finishing at 04 00 of the second day. Blood samples were collected via intravenous cannulae inserted into the jugular vein saliva samples were collected through a specific tube the Salivette . Salivary and serum urea concentrations were assayed by means of UV
