Estimating total body water content in suckling and lactating llamas (Lama glama) by isotope dilution

Total body water (TBW) in 17 suckling and six lactating llamas was estimated from isotope dilution at three different post natum and lactation stages using both (18)O and deuterium oxide (D(2)O). In total, 69 TBW measurements were undertaken. While TBW in lactating dams, expressed in kilogram, remai...
