Serum electrolytes in normal pygmy goats.

Serum from pygmy goats was analyzed to determine normal base lines for electrolytes. Animals of both sexes were used. Influence of age on these variables was also investigated. The electrolyte values were as follows: sodium, 147 +/- 6.0 mEq/L; potassium, 5.6 +/- 1.0 mEq/L; chloride, 106.0 +/- 4.2 mEq/L; calcium, 4.9 +/- 0.3 mEq/L; magnesium, 2.1 +/- 0.3 mEq/L; and inorganic phosphorus, 4.8 +/- 0.9 mEq/L. Most of the serum electrolyte values for pygmy goats were similar to reports for other ruminant species and human beings.

Automated radioimmunoassay of choriomammotropin (human placental lactogen).

We describe a totally automated procedure for radioimmunoassay of choriomammotropin, in which all phases of the assay are automated in a single system ("Centria"). This system permits the simultaneous incubation and separation of many samples in a nonequilibrium assay, and measurements are obtained in less than 30 min. Results for clinical samples by reference radioimmunossay methodology and with the Centria system compared uniformly well: y=0.91x - 0.87;r=0.94. The coefficient of variation for samples run in duplicate on the same day was 5.2%, 7.4% for samples run on different days. The specificity, sensitivity, simplicity, and speed of this system makes it a useful new tool for kinetic, nonequilibrium immunoassay.
