SERUM CHEMISTRY VALUES FOR THE BEAGLE

Abstract

Normal values for 25 serum chemical components were determined for AKC registrable beagles. Analyses were performed on serum from 10 males and 10 females, and sex-related differences in the levels of the constituents were evaluated. The serum levels of albumin, glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase, and acid phosphatase were significantly higher (p < .05) in males than in females. For 21 other serum components, including electrolytes, glucose, cholesterol, nonprotein nitrogenous substances, and enzymes, no significant sex-related differences were found.
