Artigo Científico Acesso aberto Avaliação do pH da pele de cães saudáveis das raças Golden Retriever e Shih Tzu(2018) Urnau, Luiz FernandoThis study aimed to measure normal values of cutaneous pH of anatomical regions of healthy dogs of the Golden Retriever and ShihTzu breeds. A total of 54 dogs were analyzed, being 27 Golden Retriever and 27 Shih Tzu dogs, separated at different ages and sex. The mean values of cutaneous pH of Golden Retriever were: Periocular (6.40); Headquarters (6.38); Perilabial (6.50); Perianal (6.57); Armpits (6.56); Groin (6.52); Abdomen (6.50); Inguinal (6.45); Flanks (6.32); Palm cushions (6,50); Plantar cushions (6,34). However dogs of the Shih Tzu breed, the mean values of pH in the regions were: Periocular (6,10); Headquarters (6,14); Perilabial (6.28); Perianal (6.32); Armpits (6.32); Groin (6.32); Abdomen (6.36); Inguinal (6.40); Flanks (6.38); Palm cushions (6.54); Plantar cushions (6,64). The comparison of the mean cutaneous pH value between sex (male and female) did not show a significant difference, but there were significant statistical differences (P <0.05) in the pH between ages in the pups group (up to 18 months of age), comparing (7+ years), in the regions: Groin, abdomen, inguinal, palmar and plantar cushions, however in the Shih Tzu breed there was difference between pups and adults only in the periocular region, already between pups and elderly was significant to difference in the regions of: armpits, groin, inguinal and flanks, (P <0.05). Finally, the data from the project revealed that the cutaneous pH of the two evaluated healthy races remains acidic, with a tendency to alkalinization with aging.
