Abstract

The different body fluid compartments in normally watered and 4-day water-deprived goats of Rajasthan desert, India, were measured in autumn. The goats maintained plasma volume and extracellular fluid volume, but lost gut and cell water considerably under the experimental conditions; indicating that the maintenance of the fluidity of the blood has priority over the body's other fluid requirements in this desert-adapted species during water deprivation.

摘要

在印度拉贾斯坦沙漠，于秋季对正常饮水的山羊和缺水4天的山羊的不同体液区室进行了测量。山羊维持了血浆量和细胞外液量，但在实验条件下肠道和细胞水分大量流失；这表明在缺水期间，对于这种适应沙漠环境的物种而言，维持血液的流动性比身体的其他液体需求更为重要。
