==Aspartate aminotranferase==
Some species may have higher concentrations of [[Aspartate aminotranferase|Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)]] in liver, skeletal muscle and myocardium. AST values are usually less than 250 iu/l.  Increased levels are suggestive of tissue damage, specifically liver or muscle in some species. In association with CP to rule out muscle damage it is a useful test in some species for hepatocellular damage. Generalised diseases, such as trauma, septicaemias and toxaemias, may also elevate AST due to tissues necrosis.
