In this case, the theory reduces to the one of SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R. Through this reduction, one can work out the strange quark mass dependence of the LECs in the two-flavour case. We present the pertinent relations at two-loop order for F,B and l_i.14 pages, 3 figures, References added. Due to a typo in a form program, we missed a finite, scale independent part in l_7. Is now included. Version to appear in Phys.Lett.BHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyIntegrating out strange quarks in ChPTtext
