Rabbit Plasma

Details

Rabbits have become a valuable experimental model for some of the following reasons. They are phylogenetically closer to primates than rodents and offer a more diverse genetic background than inbred and outbred rodent strains. In addition, rabbit genomics and proteomics have recently advanced with several transgenic lines that are characterized and readily available.

Plasma is a clear, yellow liquid which comprised approximately 55% of the total volume of blood. The components of plasma and serum are similar as both contain hormones, glucose, electrolytes, antibodies, antigens, nutrients and certain other particles except clotting factors which are present only in plasma. Plasma is a major source of biomarkers.
