■了解血液分析物的参考间隔,包括血清蛋白部分,对于鉴定传染病和炎性疾病非常重要,并且在野生动物物种中通常缺乏。
■血清样品从参加育种计划的欧洲水貂获得(n=55)。琼脂糖凝胶电泳(AGE)和毛细管区带电泳(CZE)用于分离和鉴定蛋白质级分。白蛋白,α1,α2,β,并通过两种电泳方法在所有水貂血清中鉴定出γ-球蛋白组分。参考间隔(90%CI)是根据临床实验室标准研究所的2008年指南确定的。使用Passing-Bablok回归对这些方法进行了比较,Bland-Altman分析,和林的一致性相关性。
■在α1,α2和γ-球蛋白的方法之间发现了明显的偏差。对于α1,α2和β-球蛋白,Lin的一致性相关性被认为是不可接受的。发现白蛋白和α2-球蛋白方法之间的性别差异,男性高于女性。使用这两种方法,成年水貂的γ-球蛋白均高于年轻水貂;然而,α1和α2-球蛋白较低。
■两种方法都足以识别血清蛋白疾病,但AGE和CZE方法不等效。因此,每种技术都需要参考间隔。
UNASSIGNED: Knowledge of reference intervals for blood analytes, including serum protein fractions, is of great importance for the identification of infectious and inflammatory diseases and is often lacking in wild animal species.
UNASSIGNED: Serum samples were obtained from European minks enrolled in the breeding program (n = 55). Agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE) and capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) were used to separate and identify protein fractions. Albumin, α1, α2, β, and γ-globulins fractions were identified in all mink sera by both electrophoresis methods. Reference intervals (90% CI) were determined following the 2008 guidelines of the Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute. The methods were compared using Passing-Bablok regression, Bland-Altman analysis, and Lin\'s concordance correlation.
UNASSIGNED: A significant bias was found between methods for α1, α2, and γ-globulin. Lin\'s concordance correlation was considered unacceptable for α1, α2, and β-globulins. Differences for gender between methods were found for albumin and α2-globuins, which were higher for males than females. γ-globulins were higher for adults than young minks using both methods; however, α1 and α2-globulins were lower.
UNASSIGNED: Both methods are adequate for identifying serum protein disorders, but the AGE and CZE methods are not equivalent. Therefore, reference intervals for each technique are required.
