Abstract

In this work the blood serum levels of calcium, inorganic phosphorus and magnesium during pregnancy of the she ass have been carried out. Samples of blood have been collected from 15 she asses in differents periods of the pregnancy and in the post-partum. Total calcium and magnesium were determined by the TODD method and the inorganic phosphorus by the FISKE-SUBBAROW method. The levels of the total calcium were higher in the final periodo of pregnancy as well as in post-partum, with a statistical significance at the level of 1%. The results of the inorganic phosphorus and magnesium have not shown statistical significance differences among them.
