	A normal gap is 12 +/- 4 (i.e. 8 to 16). The anion gap is the difference between measured cations and measured anions in serum. This difference does not reflect a true disparity between positive and negative charges, given that serum actually
	~~is electrically neutral when all serum cations and anions are measured. Rather, the anion gap is a measurement artifact resulting~~
	~~from the fact that only certain cations and anions are routinely measured. Anion gap metabolic acidosis is secondary to the addition of endogenous or exogenous acid~~
	Cutoffs for "normal" Anion Gap are laboratory and equipment specific. Newer technology and equipment have been shown to measure "low" AG in otherwise normal, healthy people.<ref>Jurado RL, del Rio C, Nassar G, Navarette J, Pimentel JL Jr. "Low anion gap."
