          Abstract

          El objetivo del estudio fue determinar el perfil bioquímico renal del cocodrilo de Tumbes (Crocodylus acutus) criado en cautiverio en Tumbes, Perú. Los animales fueron contenidos mediante sujeción manual y se colectaron muestras de sangre (6 ml) mediante punción del seno venoso post-occipital a 60 animales machos (24 juveniles, 27 subadultos y 9 adultos). El valor de ácido úrico fue de 74.2 ± 25.0 mg/L, creatinina: 1.49 ± 0.39 mg/L, calcio: 10.8 ± 2.4 mg/dl y fósforo: de 5.3 ± 2.0 mg/dl. Se encontró diferencia estadística (p<0.05) entre juveniles y sub-adultos para el ácido úrico y creatinina, y entre adultos frente a juveniles y sub-adultos para el calcio. No hubo diferencia significativa entre valores de fósforo por grupo etario.

          The aim of the study was to determine the biochemistry profile of the kidney in the Tumbes crocodile (Crocodylus acutus) reared in captivity in the north of Peru (Tumbes). Blood samples (6 ml) by puncture of the post-occipital venous sinus were collected to 60 males (24 juveniles, 27 sub-adults, and 9 adults). All animals were manually restrained. Values for uric acid was 74.2 ± 25.0 mg/L, creatinine 1.49 ± 0.39 mg/L, calcium 10.8 ± 2.4 mg/dl, and phosphorus 5.3 ± 2.0 mg/dl. There was significant difference (p<0.05) between juveniles and sub-adults for uric acid and creatinine, and adults versus younger animals for calcium, whereas phosphorus values were not affected by age.
