Blood acid-base balance, some lilood gases and plasma electrolyte levels in angora goats

In this study, acid-base status, some blood gases and plasma electrolytes of venous blood were determined in 20 Angora goats. In the goats, the obtained values of pH (7.376). pO<sub>2</sub> (46.75 mmHg), pCo<sub>2</sub> (38.50 mmHg), HC03 (22.14 mEq/L), tCO<sub>2</su...

Description
Summary:In this study, acid-base status, some blood gases and plasma electrolytes of venous blood were determined in 20 Angora goats. In the goats, the obtained values of pH (7.376). pO<sub>2</sub> (46.75 mmHg), pCo<sub>2</sub> (38.50 mmHg), HC03 (22.14 mEq/L), tCO<sub>2</sub> (23 58 mEq/L), BE (-2.21 mEq/L) and plasma sodium, potassium and calcium levels (136.8, 4.43, 2.33 mEq/L. respectively) were similar to the values reported for ruminants. Consequently, these data in Angora goats might be useful for the studies will be conducted in the same subject.
