Abstract: | The aim of this study was to evaluate the physiological range of homocysteine (Hcy) exhibited by bitches during the follicular (pro-oestrus), luteal (dioestrus) and anoestrus phases of cycling animals, and in pregnant and spayed bitches. The lowest concentrations of Hcy were observed during dioestrus (3.2+/-1.27mumol/L) and in pregnant bitches (3.9+/-1.72mumol/L), and the highest concentrations during anoestrus (7.8+/-0.6mumol/L) and in spayed bitches (12.1+/-5.16mumol/L). |
