Haematological parameters related to O2 transport and regulation of acid-base equilibrium were determined for two species of Ctenomys. The oxygen capacity values of Ctenomys blood are similar to those of other fossorial mammals. Ctenomys blood has almost half the number of red blood cells of Rattus blood but the amount of Hb in each blood cell is 2-2.5 times higher. Blood pH is within typical mammalian values. Concentration of inorganic phosphate is higher in Ctenomys than in rats while bicarbonate and protein values are within typical mammalian range.
测定了两种栉鼠与氧气运输和酸碱平衡调节相关的血液学参数。栉鼠血液的氧容量值与其他掘洞哺乳动物相似。栉鼠血液中的红细胞数量几乎是大鼠血液的一半,但每个血细胞中的血红蛋白含量高2至2.5倍。血液pH值在典型的哺乳动物范围内。栉鼠体内无机磷酸盐的浓度高于大鼠,而碳酸氢盐和蛋白质的值在典型的哺乳动物范围内。
