Hematology of Lower Vertebrates
Introduction The proper evaluation of the hemogram of any animal patient involves the determination of a total erythrocyte count [TRBC], packed cell volume [PCV], hemoglobin concentration [Hb], total white blood cell count [TWBC], white blood cell differential, and the evaluation of a stained peripheral blood film. The basic techniques used in mammalian hematology also apply to that of lower ve...
متن کاملBlood Biochemistry of Lower Vertebrates
Introduction Blood biochemistry profiles are often used to assess the physiologic status of lower vertebrate patients, such as fish, amphibians, reptiles, and birds. However, there is a general lack of controlled studies designed to clarify the meaning of changes in the blood chemistries of these animals compared to those of domestic mammals. Therefore, the clinical chemistry of lower vertebrat...
متن کاملEvolution of nociception in vertebrates: comparative analysis of lower vertebrates.
Nociception is an important sensory system of major fundamental and clinical relevance. The nociceptive system of higher vertebrates is well studied with a wealth of information about nociceptor properties, involvement of the central nervous system and the in vivo responses to a noxious experience are already characterised. However, relatively little is known about nociception in lower vertebra...
متن کاملDevelopmental toxicity of pharmaceuticals in lower vertebrates
The release of human pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment has become an issue of societal concern. More than 160 Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) have been detected in surface waters, although generally at low concentrations (ng-ug/l). Most available ecotoxicological information on these pharmaceuticals originates from acute testing using algae, Daphnia and fish; results from long...
متن کاملEffects of spirometrid plerocercoids on several species of lower vertebrates.
l. The effects of the plerocercoid growth factor on several species of lower vertebrates were tested. 2. There was little effect on growth or fattening in either fish or frogs. 3. Plerocercoid infections and to a lesser degree worm homogenate injections markedly stimulated growth but not fattening in lizards.
