Sažetak
Plasma biochemical profiles were periodically analysed in 39 loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) during their recovery periods in Marine Turtles Rescue Centre of Aquarium Pula and Marine Education Center - Pula, Croatia, from 2014 to 2018. Selected plasma biochemical analysis (of albumin, total protein, glucose, uric acid, urea, Ca and LDH) carried out during the 2014 and 2015 were later extended to total of 13 analytical parameters (including PO3, ALT, AST, AP, GGT and CK) as reliable indicators of sea turtle health status. The blood from the dorsal cervical sinus was taken multiple times during animals’ stay in the Centre. First time the blood was taken shortly upon the arrival to the Center, then again 60 to 90 days during the stay, and finally before the turtles was released to the nature. Blood was collected into microtainer tubes containing lithium heparin and centrifuged. Plasma was harvested and processed within 24 hours. The aim of the study was to monitor and analyse biochemical parameters of sea turtles during recovery period and determine possible biochemical pattern that can be used in diagnostic purpose. The results were compared with the values obtained in other similar studies, and the differences of biochemical values depending on sex, age, season, health status were discussed. Particular biochemical parameters are highlighted and proved to be important in assessing and monitoring the turtle's health status and condition, thereby the combined use of battery parameters for future research is recommended.
