Abstract: This assay was aimed to determine the blood physiological and biochemical parameters in the mini-pigs bred by China Agricultural University which was named Chinese experimental mini-pigs,so as to provide the basis for mini-pigs as human disease models.Nine physiological blood paramaters and twenty two biochemical blood paramaters in Chinese experimental mini-pigs aged 1,3,6 and 12 months were measured using the automatic biochemical analyzer.The blood parameters between males and females in the same month were compared. The results showed among the blood physiological and biochemical parameters,only RDW and CREA showed significant difference between male and female pigs in the same month in Chinese experimental mini-pigs (P<0.05). Some blood parameters in Chinese experimental mini-pigs were similar to those in Bama mini-pig, Guizhou mini-pig and Wuzhishan mini-pig.The blood physiological and biochemical parameters in Chinese experimental mini-pig were very stable.Compared with human beings,four of nine physiological blood paramaters and fifteen of twenty-two biochemical blood paramaters in Chinese experimental mini-pigs were similar.
