Description
In today's VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we interview Dr. Colleen Wegenast, DABT from the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on her recent publication entitled "Acute kidney injury in dogs following ingestion of cream of tartar and tamarinds and the connection to tartaric acid as the proposed toxic principle in grapes and raisins" which was published in the Journal of Veterinary Emergency Critical Care in 2022. As the toxic agent alluded toxicologists for decades, this paper discusses how the ASPCA APCC suspected tartaric acid was the toxic component in Vitus spp (e.g., grapes, raisins). Find out where else tartaric acid can be found, and how to manage tartaric acid or tamarind fruit toxicity in dogs.
