Serum enzymatic activities in captive northeastern–Argentina caymen (Crocodylia: Crocodylidae)

The aim of the study was to obtain reference values for some clinically useful enzymaticactivities in serum of captive northeastern–Argentina caymen. Two hundred and twenty–three samples from Caiman latirostris (n = 109) and Caiman yacare (n = 114), both sexessub–adults specimens (2–7 kg liveweight...

The aim of the study was to obtain reference values for some clinically useful enzymaticactivities in serum of captive northeastern–Argentina caymen. Two hundred and twenty–three samples from Caiman latirostris (n = 109) and Caiman yacare (n = 114), both sexessub–adults specimens (2–7 kg liveweight and 80–130 cm total longitude), were analyzed. Serumactivities from ALP (55.1±7.4 IU/l), ALT (14.7±3.1 IU/l), AST (64.0±11.3 IU/l), GGT(8.9±1.6 IU/l), CPK (154±27 IU/l), LDH (353±67 IU/l) and CHE (359±70 IU/l), were determinedby spectrophotometry. Significant physiological differences (p < 0.05) among species,sexes, ages and year season, were verified. As age advanced, ALP decrease was registered,which is explained by the osseous development decline. At the same time, AST, CPK, LDHand CHE progressively increased; this change is attributed to muscular masses ontogenicincrease. Winter decreases of enzymatic values are imputed to metabolic fall caused by alimentaryrestriction. Obtained values can be useful for illnesses diagnosis and for metabolicand nutritional control of caymen.
