In rabbits, the normal Serum Protein Electrophoresis (SPE) pattern lacks a clear distinction between b1-globulins and b2-globulins, as present in dogs and cats, but when gammopathies in the b region occur, usually an extension of the electrophoretic band is seen, with consequent demarcation of the 2 peaks. The first studies of serum proteins in birds were performed on domestic chickens, showing many similarities with the layout of mammals (eg, the production of APPs 18, 19 ), but also several differences: the widespread presence of prealbumin, for example, the lowest concentration of g-globulin, and conversely the more marked response to inflammatory stimuli in the b-globulin field. ./cache/cord-335915-2apj4qy9.txt ./txt/cord-335915-2apj4qy9.txt
