RE: RE: [RC] question on selenium levels.... - heidi

Kathy said:
That seems like a pretty big range, I question the .5. 
  
Gabriel has had Se deficieny issues this past year.  Susan G said his serum 
levels should be between .2 and .3 since he's an endurance horse. 


I'd concur with Susan on that, but would add that it isn't just because
he's an endurance horse, but because that's the ideal range anyway. 
(Better believe we work to keep broodmares in that range, too!)

Lisa  (vet) left message on phone that Jeep's selenium level was 0.29.  
Reference/normal range is between 0.08-0.5, with Jeep's level right in the 
middle.    
  
Can folks comment on Se level? 

Might want to re-run it at some point, but might also want to look for
other causes of the tie-up...  While selenium deficiency is a common
factor, it isn't the only factor.
