Abstract

Leopard sharks (Triakis semifasciata) are temperate, Eastern Pacific elasmobranchs popular in public aquariums. Blood analysis is commonly used for assessing animal health, yet reference values have not been established for this species. This study analyzed T. semifasciata population data to characterize blood reference values for a collection of T. semifasciata housed at a public aquarium. Twenty-one captive leopard sharks were sampled. Blood was collected during annual health examinations from sedated animals. After collection, blood samples were anticoagulated with lithium heparin, and hematocrit and plasma biochemistry values were analyzed. The minimum-maximum ranges were hematocrit 11-31%, buffy coat 1-2%, glucose 4.94-9.38 mM/L, sodium 244-272 mM/L, potassium 3.7-5.5 mM/L, chloride 214-246 mM/L, aspartate aminotransferase 5-31 U/L, creatine kinase 36-1,136 U/L, calcium 3.65-3.95 mM/L, phosphorus 1.13-2.23 mM/L, total protein 21-38 g/L, and total CO2 12-18 mM/L. The values identified will contribute to a better understanding of captive leopard shark physiology and to improved veterinary care for captive leopard sharks. Further research can examine the validity of machines like the Vetscan VS2, which will expand the resources available to care professionals.

豹纹鲨(triakis semifasciata)的血液学和血浆生化参考值。
豹纹鲨(Triakis semifasciata)是东太平洋温带鞘鳃类动物,在公共水族馆很受欢迎。血液分析通常用于评估动物健康状况,但该物种的参考值尚未确定。本研究分析了匙吻鲟的种群数据,以确定公共水族馆饲养的匙吻鲟的血液参考值。对 21 条圈养豹纹鲨进行了采样。每年对动物进行健康检查时,都会从镇静的动物身上采集血液。采集血液样本后,用肝素锂进行抗凝,并分析血细胞比容和血浆生化值。最小-最大值范围为:血细胞比容 11-31%,缓冲液 1-2%,葡萄糖 4.94-9.38 mM/L,钠 244-272 mM/L,钾 3.7-5.5 mM/L,氯 214-246 mM/L,天冬氨酸氨基转移酶 5-31 U/L,肌酸激酶 36-1,136 U/L,钙 3.65-3.95 mM/L,磷 1.13-2.23 mM/L,总蛋白 21-38 g/L,总二氧化碳 12-18 mM/L。所确定的数值将有助于更好地了解圈养豹纹鲨的生理机能和改善圈养豹纹鲨的兽医护理。进一步的研究可以检查像 Vetscan VS2 这样的机器的有效性,这将扩大专业护理人员的可用资源。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine (JZWM) is considered one of the major sources of information on the biology and veterinary aspects in the field. It stems from the founding premise of AAZV to share zoo animal medicine experiences. The Journal evolved from the long history of members producing case reports and the increased publication of free-ranging wildlife papers. The Journal accepts manuscripts of original research findings, case reports in the field of veterinary medicine dealing with captive and free-ranging wild animals, brief communications regarding clinical or research observations that may warrant publication. It also publishes and encourages submission of relevant editorials, reviews, special reports, clinical challenges, abstracts of selected articles and book reviews. The Journal is published quarterly, is peer reviewed, is indexed by the major abstracting services, and is international in scope and distribution. Areas of interest include clinical medicine, surgery, anatomy, radiology, physiology, reproduction, nutrition, parasitology, microbiology, immunology, pathology (including infectious diseases and clinical pathology), toxicology, pharmacology, and epidemiology.
