title: [Changes in the activity of serum enzymes, total protein and electrolytes in experimental babeiasis in sheep].
abstract: Investigations were carried out on the serum enzymes, total proteins and some electrolites (potassium and sodium) in eight spleenectomized sheep experimentally infected with Babesia organisms. It was found that babesiasis in sheep was accompanied by a considerable rise in the activity of GOT and GPT (from 80JU up to 260IU and from 4 IU up to 19 IU). The amount of inorganic phosphorus dropped, and that of potassium sodium and alkaline phosphatase showed no changes. It is believed that the changes in the activity of GOT, GPT and inorganic phosphorus depend on the gravity and the duration of the disease and can be used as a criterion in determining the pathologic process.
