Testudinidae Testudo horsfieldii At present, a great deal of attention is being focused on the tortoise as a domestic pet. Knowledge of the blood biochemical parameters in captivity of this animal would be helpful for evaluations of their health. In this regard, the serum biochemical values were measured in 12 Asian tortoises (6 males and 6 females) before hibernation. Serum values of total protein (TOP) 63.19±7.57 g/L, Albumin (Alb) 47.24±10.66 g/L, creatinine (Crea) 57.4±4.68 mmmol/L, glucose (Glc) 81.46±21.88 mmol/L, urea 7.52±2.74 mmol/L, uric acid (UA) 0.11±0.028 mmol/L, aspartate transaminase (AST) 0.46±0.017 µkal/L, alanine transaminase (ALT) 0.44±0.053 mkal/L, amylase 1,157±33.96 mkal/L, calcium (Ca) 2.74±0.65 mmol/L, magnesium (Mg) 1.98±0.24 mmol/L, and inorganic phosphorus (P) 1.26±0.101 mmol/L were determined respectively. There were no significant differences in TOP, Alb, Glc, Crea, urea, UA, AST, ALT, amylase, Ca and P, and also Mg levels between males and females.
