Dynamic Surface Tension Measurements for Animal Blood Analysis and Correlations with Related Biochemical Parameters

Abstract

Abstract:The dynamic surface tension (DST) data and biochemical parameters (BCP) of animal blood have been obtained. A strong positive correlation was found for goats between σ 1 , σ 2 , σ 3 (DST) and sodium levels (BCP), λ z (DST)-with the levels of lipid and sodium (BCP); whereas a strong negative correlation was found for goats between σ 3 (DST) and the level of total protein and chloride (BCP), λ z (DST)-with the level of albumin (BCP). A strong positive correlation was found for horses between σ 1 , σ 2 , σ 3 (DST) and lipid levels (BCP); λ 0 (DST)-the level of chloride (BCP); λ z (DST)-the level of albumin and chloride (BCP). A strong negative correlation was found for horses between σ 1 (DST) and sodium level (BCP); σ 2 , σ 3 (DST) and chloride level (BCP); λ 0 (DST) and lipid level (BCP). Some moderate and weak correlations of different types were also found, but these have less importance for practical usage. The particular correlations between BCP and DST data of the same serum samples allowed DST data to be checked directly at the farm, and requiring the use of more expensive and time-consuming biochemical analysis only in cases of high necessity for a particular animal.

Biochemical parameters, dynamic tensiometry and circulating nucleic acids for cattle blood analysis: a review

“…Comparison of the data obtained by BPA-1P with those by other well-known methods (oscillating jet, drop volume, dynamic, capillary, etc.) (Miller & Fainerman, 1998;Kazakov et al, 2000;Khilko, 2014;Voronina, 2017;Zaitsev et al, 2004Zaitsev et al, , 2011bZaitsev, 2016Zaitsev, , 2018 showed a good agreement between the results.…”

“…The dependance of the dynamic surface tension parameters (Zaitsev, 2016) of the serum on the qualitative and quantitative composition has been described (Zarudnaya et al, 2010;Zaitsev et al, 2011b;Zaitsev, 2010Zaitsev, , 2018. The dependance of the DT parameters (complete quantitative data set) of the serum of some animals (Fig.…”

“…Both biopolymers and low-molecular surfactants can be easily adsorbed at the liquid interfaces (such as "bioliquid-air") with corresponding changes of surface tension (ST) values (Butt, Graf & Kappl, 2006;Kazakov et al, 2000;Khilko, 2014;Voronina, 2017;Zaitsev et al, 2004;Zaitsev, 2016Zaitsev, , 2018. This process is considered to be one of the main mechanisms of the surfactant activity playing a significant role in numerous functions of animals (Miller & Fainerman, 1998;Zarudnaya et al, 2010;Zaitsev et al, 2011b;Zaitsev, 2010Zaitsev, , 2016Zaitsev, , 2018. It is important to highlight that changes of the concentration of biologically active substances (BAS) in biological liquids are influenced by particular periods, for example, growth, development, pregnancy, lactation, and adaptation to changing environmental conditions (stress).…”

“…The one of the most convenient for blood study is the tensiometer BPA-1P (so-called "Maximum Bubble Pressure Tensiometer"). The function principle of the tensiometer BPA-1P and its new generations is based on the maximum pressure measurements in the bubble method (Miller & Fainerman, 1998;Kazakov et al, 2000;;Khilko, 2014;Voronina, 2017;Zaitsev et al, 2004Zaitsev et al, , 2011aZaitsev, 2016Zaitsev, , 2018. The significant advantages of the BPA and relative devices are the following: a small volume of sample, high analysis speed, full automation of the measurement process, the computer processing of the information received (Zaitsev, 2016).…”
