Chemistry comments:
The sample was lipemic. The score reflects the degree of lipemia graded on a 0-4 scale where 4 is severe.
Sample lipemia can artifactually increase total protein values when performed by refractometer
methodology. It may also interfere with GLDH quantitation. Other routine chemistry analytes are generally
not affected.

Electrophoresis Comments
The albumin is decreased. This may reflect hydration, nephritis, hepatitis, or parasitism. Low albumin
can also be observed in young animals.By %TP, the beta globulins are mildly increased and reflective
of acute inflammation. Moderate to marked increases in this fraction can be observed with nephritis,
hepatitis, dermatitis, and mycotic infection. Increases may also be observed with sarcocystosis and
chronic chlamydiosis as well as mycobacteriosis. Specific beta globulin proteins are also increased in
egg laying birds. Followup EPH may have prognostic value in this case.
