Reference normal hematological values have been documented for various domestic animals under various climatic/geographical conditions; however there is a dearth of information in the literature concerning these values for camels kept in desert. The present pilot study was conducted to establish reference normal range of salient hematological parameters in clinically healthy camels (30 males an...

BACKGROUND Different hematological analyzers have different analytical performances that are often reflected in the criteria for sample stability of the complete blood count. This study aimed to assess the stability of several hematological parameters using the XN-9000 Sysmex and BC-6800 Mindray analyzers. METHODS The impact of storage at room temperature and 4°C was evaluated after 2, 4, 6, ...

ECG, electrocardiogram; CT, computed tomography; M1, acute myeloid leukemia without differentiation; WBC, white blood cells; WHO, World Health Organization; CK-MB, creatine kinase–myocardial band; CBC, complete blood count; APL, acute promyelocytic leukemia; AML, acute myelocytic leukemia; ALL, acute lymphocytic leukemia; CD, cluster of differentiation; HLA-DR, human leukocyte antigen–D related...

this study was conducted to determine the effects of administration of different concentration of aloe vera crud extract (ace) as a food supplement on growth performance, immune response and disease resistance against aeromonas hydrophila (chester) infection in cyprinus carpio. 360 juvenile c.carpio were randomly divided into four equal groups in triplicates. groups 1 to 4 were fed by basal foo...

The effect of tryptophan daily oral dose (81.7 mg/kg wt) for 21 days on some biochemical and histological parameters in female albino rats exposed to gamma irradiation at dose 7 Gray (Gy) was investigated. The hematological studies revealed that there were significant reduction in red blood cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelets and leucocytes values in irradiated rats and elevation of t...

The study evaluated the ameliorative effect of vitamin C on chronic chlorpyrifos-induced hematological alterations in Wistar rats. Twenty adult male rats divided into 4 groups of 5 animals each were exposed to the following regimens: group I (S/oil) was administered soya oil (2 mL/kg b.w.), while group II (VC) was given vitamin C (100 mg/kg b.w.); group III was dosed with CPF (10.6 mg/kg b.w.);...

The hormone erythropoietin (EPO) is responsible for the increased production of red blood cells (RBC) in response to tissue hypoxia. While the role of EPO in hematological development has been established in humans and terrestrial mammals, this relationship has never been examined in marine mammals that rely heavily on stored oxygen to maintain aerobic metabolism while diving. Since blood is th...

The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of Fasciola gigantica excretory secretory antigen (Fg-ESA) on rat hematological indices. Fg-ESA was prepared by keeping thoroughly washed 40 F. gigantica flukes in 100 ml phosphate buffer saline (PBS) for 2 h at 37 degrees C, and centrifuging the supernatant at 12,000 g at 4 degrees C for 30 min. The protein content of Fg-ESA was adjust...

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Introduction: The lack of reference values of anthropometric, performance, biochemical, hematological, hormonal and psychological parameters is an important limitation in the investigations with soccer players. Objective: To elaborate percentile tables to be u...
