  • Title: Plasma volume measurements in sheep using Evans' blue and continuous blood sampling.
    Author: Mackie WS.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1976 Jul; 21(1):108-9. PubMed ID: 951519.
    Abstract:
    After intravenous injection of 0.3-0.4 mg Evans' blue/kg liveweight in sheep, blood was collected continuously for 10 min into 10 tubes. Calculations using the dye concentrations in the plasma collected between 3 and 10 min gave values of plasma volume in close agreement with those obtained by intravascular dilution of labelled macromolecules. The dye has no adverse effects on carcase quality and can be used in standard holding pens.
