Abstract:Summary
Blood samples were taken from the caudal vein of 64 normal dairy cows monthly for 12 months and the concentrations of erythrocyte Na (ENa), erythrocyte K (EK), and erythrocyte (EMg) were determined. The overall range of ENa concentrations in the cows was 16 to 176 mmol/l red cells with a grand mean (± SD) of 96 ± 15.4 mmol/l, and a positively skewed distribution with a degree of skewness of 4.4. The overall range of EK concentrations was 13 to 99 mmol/l, with a grand mean (± SD) of 32.8 ± 13.12 mmol/l … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
