Reference Blood Chemistry Values Throughout the Lifespan of M. spretus

In the present study, blood chemistry values for Mus spretus are reported and analyzed with respect to age and gender. Cholesterol values differ significantly (P = 0.01) between young (2 to 6 months) and aged (25 to 31 months) M. spretus, and direct or conjugated bilirubin values differ significantl...

Description
Summary:In the present study, blood chemistry values for Mus spretus are reported and analyzed with respect to age and gender. Cholesterol values differ significantly (P = 0.01) between young (2 to 6 months) and aged (25 to 31 months) M. spretus, and direct or conjugated bilirubin values differ significantly (P = 0.01) between male and female animals. These findings indicate that cholesterol concentrations in M. spretus change with age and that direct bilirubin values differ depending on gender.
