Abstract
Determining reference intervals (RI) isavaluable asset for assessing the health ofwildlife species. This isthe first study toestablish serum biochemical RIs inSiberian weasels. Forty-two healthy free-ranging Siberian weasels were captured live and brought toSeoul Wildlife Center between June 2021 and August 2022. Blood samples from 42healthy Siberian weasels ofboth sexes were used tocalculate RIs. Anautomated analyser was used toperform serum biochemistry profiles. The American Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology recommendations were used tocalculate anonparametric RI with 90% confidence intervals. The RIs ofalbumin, total protein, globulin, calcium, glucose, blood urea nitrogen, phosphorus, amylase, cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, creatinine, and creatine kinase were determined. The RIs established inthis study will serve asagood starting point for analysing serum biochemical data inSiberian weasels.
