Blood was collected into SST tubes and clinical chemistry analysis was conducted on the Advia 1200 (Siemens). A comparison of the following clinical chemistry parameters was performed on ferrets infected with HPAI, seasonal, or swine influenza virus: (A) alanine aminotransferase (ALT), (B) albumin, (C) albumin/globulin ratio, (D) alkaline phsophatase, (E) aspartate aminotransferase (AST), (F) blood urea nitrogen (BUN), (G) BUN/creatinine ratio, (H) calcium, (I) chloride, (J) creatinine, (K) gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), (L) globulin, (M) glucose, (N) phosphorus, (O) potassium, (P) sodium, (Q) SDH, and (R) total protein. A represents a significant difference when comparing HPAI and seasonal influenza; B represents a significant difference when comparing HPAI and swine influenza; and C represents a significant difference when comparing swine influenza and seasonal influenza. Geometric means and 95% confidence intervals (error bars) were plotted.
