title: Plasma antithrombin-III values in healthy horses: effect of sex and/or breed.
abstract: Plasma antithrombin-III (AT-III) values were determined in 74 healthy horses by an automated spectrophotometric assay. The mean plasma AT-III value was 218% +/- 18% of normal human plasma. Plasma AT-III values did not differ significantly (P less than 0.05) among Thoroughbred, Standardbred, Quarter Horse, and other breeds or among mares, geldings, or stallions.
