CALCIUM AND PHOSPHORUS CONCENTRATION IN RABBITS WITH STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS INFECTION

The present study was conducted to examine the changes in calcium and phosphorus levels during Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection in rabbits. The experimental procedures were carried out with 12 male New Zealand white healthy rabbits, divided into two equal groups - the experimental group...

description The present study was conducted to examine the changes in calcium and phosphorus levels during Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection in rabbits. The experimental procedures were carried out with 12 male New Zealand white healthy rabbits, divided into two equal groups - the experimental group (n=6, rabbits infected with S.aureus) and the control group (n=6, uninfected animals). Blood samples were collected at 0 hours before infection, as well on 6, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7, 14 and 21 days after the infection. The amount of calcium in infected rabbits decreased significantly by the 48-th hour (p<0,01) after infection with bacterial suspension. A significant increase of phosphorus in the experimental group was observed at 24 hours and on the 7-th day after infection.
