Oxidative Stress Parameters in Xylasine-Ketamine Adminestered Bozova Greyhounds
Journal Title: Journal of Advances in VetBio Science and Techniques - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of xylaine-ketamine anesthezia on some micro elements and oxidative stress parameters in Bozova greyhounds. In the study eight male greyhounds, which were in different age and body weight were used as the material. The animals, which were, came in clinic with different complaints injected with the ketamine (10 mg/kg) and xylazine (1 mg/kg) intramuscularly. The findings were recorded before and during anesthesia. Blood samples were collected from the vena cephalica. Serum copper, zinc, manganese levels were determined by an ICP-OES. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), malondialdehyde (MDA) and catalase (CAT) were measured by validated standard methods. In this study, while SOD activity was lower (p<0,05) in the post-anesthezia; a statistically significant difference wasn't determined between the levels of Cu, Zn, Mn and, CAT, GPx, MDA (p>0.05). In conclusion, we regard to it was seen that sera copper, zinc, manganese levels and oxidative stress parameters, ketamine-xylazine anesthesiz can be used safely in Bozova greyhounds
