Protein Electrophoresis: A Tool for the Reptilian and Amphibian Practitioner Julia Zaias, DVM & Carolyn Cray, PhD
Avian and Wildlife Diagnostic Laboratory, University of Miami School of Medicine, Department of Pathology, Division of Comparative Pathology, 1600 NW 10th Ave., Miami, FL 33136 USA ABSTRACT: This review is intended to introduce reptilian and amphibian practitioners to the practice and benefits of protein electrophoresis as a supplemental diagnostic tool. Protein electrophoresis provides important information on the various components of serum or plasma protein which may help to narrow the differential diagnoses in most cases. In addition, protein electrophoresis requires only a very small amount of blood to perform. Protein electrophoresis is a useful ancillary diagnostic test in mammals and birds. Its potential has yet to be explored in reptilian and amphibian medicine. Address (URL): http://www.arav.org/journals/JA018536.htm
