The dairy farming is practiced throughout the national territory and approximately 70% of milk production in Brazil comes from crossbred animals derived from European dairy cattle breeds with zebu breeds of excellent adaptation to tropical conditions. Due the metabolic profile studies have focused on specialized pure breeds in this research was aimed to assess the metabolic profile of protein in two genetic groups of Holstein x Gir cows, from the second lactation order, in two periods of lactation, during the dry season. This work was carried out at the Fazenda Santa Luzia, belonging to the Grupo Cabo Verde, Passos - MG. Data were collected between May and August 2009, from ½ HG cows (37) and ¾ HG cows (35). Two periods of lactation were studied: from 28 to 60 and from 110 to 130 days. The feeding of the herd was conducted in accordance with milk production. From each animal, fasting, 10 mL of blood without anticoagulant, and 4.5 mL, with EDTA anticoagulant were collected. Milk yield and body condition score were evaluated and serum levels of urea, albumin, total protein and hemoglobin determined using a manual spectrophotometer, based on specific procedures for each component. Results showed that milk production was higher in animals ¾ HG in both periods of lactation and body condition score higher in the animals of the second period of lactation, but similar when comparing genetic groups. Although had occurred differences among lactation periods to the genetic groups for urea, albumin and total protein, results for these variables were similar as well as for hemoglobin into genetic groups. However genetic groups presented different results from those obtained for purebreds, demonstrating the need particularly to reconsider the nutritional management of these groups, when related to the purebreds. So, it s suggested that others research could be done in these conditions in order to elucidate this uncertain and to enable to construct tables with specific reference values for these genetic groups
