Title: Automated serum chemical analysis in the foal. Author: Rumbaugh GE, Adamson PJ. Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1983 Oct 01; 183(7):769-72. PubMed ID: 6629985. Abstract: Blood was collected from healthy Quarter Horse and Appaloosa foals at birth and at intervals until 18 weeks of age and then was processed in an automated system for serum chemical analysis, grouping the results by age. The test values were markedly different from those normally expected in adult horses. The greatest differences were in alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose, and total bilirubin measurements. It was concluded that serum biochemical test results be compared with age-specific normal values before diagnoses are made in cases of illness.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
