  • Title: Short communication: estimation of plasma osmolality from plasma electrolytes, glucose, and urea in calves.
    Author: Iriki T, Takahashi M, Wada Y, Funaba M, Abe M.
    Journal: J Dairy Sci; 2000 Jun; 83(6):1330-2. PubMed ID: 10877398.
    Abstract:
    Plasma osmolality estimated from plasma concentrations of Na+, Cl-, K+, glucose, and urea was compared with measured osmolality in preweaned Holstein calves. When calves (n = 5) were fed only milk replacer after fasting for 24 h, measured osmolality fluctuated almost in parallel with estimated osmolality during the 8-h period after feeding, although estimated values were about 90% of measured values. When calves (n = 5) were fed only calf starter after fasting for more than 16 h, measured osmolality did not parallel the estimated osmolality during the 8-h period after feeding. Some factors depressed measured osmolality in the first 2 h.
