Valores de bioquímica sanguinea en atélidos de los géneros (Lagothrix y Ateles) en cautiverio en la provincia de Pastaza

Abstract

In the present study, the blood biochemistry values of 22 primates of the Atelidae family of the species Lagothrix lagotricha lagotricha, Lagothrix lagotricha poeppigii, Ateles belzebuth, 14 females and 8 males in captivity, were distributed in the centers: Zoo Pastaza Selva Viva, The YanaCocha Wildlife Rescue Center and the Merazonia Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, located in the province of Pastaza; the animals were calmed with a combination of Tiletamine-Zolazepam; The samples were taken from the femoral vein, kept for 10 minutes at room temperature, refrigerated and transported to the clinical laboratory where the analysis was carried out with the ABAXIS® VetScan VS2 Chemical and Electrolytic Analyzer equipment; The ranges obtained for liver function and integrity are the following analytes: ALT (U / L) 32.41 ± 7.08; ALP (U / L) 158.64 ± 104.81; ALB (g / dL) 3.54 ± 0.54; TP (g / dL) 6.41 ± 0.82; TBIL (mg / dL) 0.47 ± 0.16; GLOB (g / dL) 2.87 ± 0.92; GLU (mg / dL) 91.27 ± 37.19. Kidney function and integrity range BUN (mg / dL) 8.32 ± 6.93 were also included; CRE (mg / dL) 0.55 ± 0.22; K + (mmol / L) 6.97 ± 1.15; Na + (mmol / L) 139.73 ± 2.19; Ca + (mg / dL) 9.37 ± 0.67; FOS (mg / dL) 3.93 ± 1.39; In addition, the value of pancreatic functionality was determined, which is Amylase AMY (U / L) 108 ± 70.37. It is concluded that the obtained values are similar with those analyzed with other authors, there were no significant statistical differences according to age group and sex; except for Amylase and Globulin in Lagothrix lagotricha poeppigii according to age group.
