Table 1. Serum protein analysis of healthy dogs and systemic inflammatory patients
| Total protein (g/dL) | Albumin (g/dL) | Globulin (g/dL) | A/G ratio |
| Healthy | 6.1 ± 0.3a | 3.7 ± 0.2a | 2.4 ± 0.3a | 1.6 ± 0.2 |
| Systemic disease | 5.5 ± 0.6 | 2.7 ± 0.6 | 2.8 ± 0.6 | 1.0 ± 0.4 |
| Pyometra | 5.8 ± 0.6ab | 2.5 ± 0.6b | 3.2 ± 0.8b | 0.9 ± 0.4 |
| Acute pancreatitis | 5.4 ± 0.6b | 2.7 ± 0.6b | 2.6 ± 0.4ab | 1.1 ± 0.4 |
Values are expressed as mean ± S.D.
Statistical analysis among healthy, pyometra, and acute pancreatitis groups was performed.
Different letters indicate significant differences (p<0.05).
A/G, albumin/globulin.
