  • Title: [Age dependency of laboratory values in dogs and cats. II. Electrolytes in serum].
    Author: Kraft W, Hartmann K, Dereser R.
    Journal: Tierarztl Prax; 1996 Apr; 24(2):169-73. PubMed ID: 8650687.
    Abstract:
    Significant age dependent differences in dogs were found in sodium, potassium, calcium, chloride, and inorganic phosphorus, whereas in cats only potassium, chloride, and inorganic phosphorus were found to be age dependent. In both species special reference values must be established for different age groups. The higher reference values of potassium in young dogs and cats should be considered in cases of rehydration.
