THE EFFECTS OF REDUCED DIETARY PHOSPHATE INTAKE ON PLASMA OSTEOCALCIN LEVELS IN SHEEP

S. C. Corlett 1 and A. D. Care 1

1 Department of Animal Physiology and Nutrition, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT

Six sheep were fed a diet with normal phosphorus content for 1 month after which plasma inorganic phosphorus (Pi), calcium, osteocalcin (BGP) and alkaline phosphatase concentrations were measured over a 48 h period. The same animals were then fed a low phosphorus diet for a further month prior to a second sampling period. Plasma Pi and BGP concentrations were significantly reduced after the low phosphorus diet; there was a statistically non-significant rise in plasma calcium but no change in alkaline phosphatase concentrations.
