The goal of the present study was to evaluate the
difference in the synovial fluid constituents in cattle,
buffaloes, camels, and donkeys. A total number of 20
clinically healthy adult male animals (cattle (N=5), buffaloes
(N=5), camels (N=5), and donkeys (N=5) were
subjected to study. Synovial fluid samples were collected
from the metacarpophalangeal joint under complete aseptic
conditions. The samples were examined physically, cytologically,
and biochemically. Synovial fluid analysis
revealed significant variations in specific gravity, total
leukocyte counts, total proteins, albumin, globulins, glucose
levels, and alkaline phosphatase activity among
investigated animal species.
