Relationship between colloid osmotic pressure and plasma protein concentration in the dog

Abstract: This study was done to establish the correct relationship between protein concentration and plasma colloid osmotic pressure in the dog and to determine the possible influence of the relative albumin and globulin content (A:G ratio). Plasma samples from dogs, rats, and humans were evaluated for total protein concentration, globulin concentration, and colloid osmotic pressure. Samples were concentrated and diluted by ultrafiltration to provide a range of total protein concentrations from 1 to 12 g/dl. Rat and hu… Show more

“…In addition to changes in VP, edema formation depends on oncotic pressure 30. Even though it is very unlikely that protein applied at an amount as low as the one used in this study (50 μg RNase‐1/kg mouse) would influence intravasal oncotic pressure, we applied the same amount of DNase as a control; however, DNase did not reduce edema formation, indicating that a potential increase in the intravasal oncotic pressure following administration of this low amount of RNase‐1 may not be responsible for the observed effects.…”

“…A significant albumin content in PM30 ultrafiltrate ( 5 %) has also been noted by Bisera, Weil, Michaels, Bernado, & Stein (1978 (Shaw, 1976) and mean 25-9 cmH2O (Bisera et al 1978). (Navar & Navar, 1977), mean 35 8 cmH2O (Bisera et al 1978). We were therefore confident of the validity of the COP measurements.…”

“…The albumin: globulin ratio of rats, dogs, and people were 1.4, 0.59, and 2.1, respectively, with corresponding differences in colloidal osmotic pressure. The latter was predicted to affect glomerular filtration dynamics (85).…”
