A 75 days feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the influence of dietary supplementation of multi-strain (Bacillus sp.) probiotic (22×109 CFU/g) on growth and hematological parameters of Barbonymus gonionotus. A total 270 uniformed size (length 2.40±0.16 cm and weight 4.25±0.01g) fishes were equally and randomly distributed in nine (three treatments each with three replication) glass aquaria ...

BACKGROUND Particulate air pollution has been associated with excess deaths from, and increases in hospital admissions for, cardiovascular disease among older people. A study was undertaken to determine whether this may be a consequence of alterations in the blood, secondary to pulmonary inflammation caused by the action of fine particles on alveolar cells, by repeatedly measuring haematologica...

By H. H. ROSTORFER, PH.D., AND R. H. RIGDON, M.D. M ARKED changes in color indices, cell volume indices, and relative cellular hemoglobin indices have been observed by Rostorfer and Rigdon’ in the blood of ducks during the course of severe malarial infections and during the period of recovery. A difference in the amounts of functional hemoglobin calculated from the oxygen capacity of the blood ...

Red blood cells (RBC) and reticulocyte parameters were determined on peripheral blood from a subset of patients enrolled in the multicenter study of hydroxyuea (HU) in sickle cell anemia. Multiple blood samples were obtained every 2 weeks. Cellular indices were measured by flow cytometry. Generalized linear models were used to determine the relationship between the longitudinal trajectories of ...

in order to evaluate the intercropping of corn (zea mays l.) and bean cultivars (phaseolus spp.) an experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with three replicaties at sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university during growing season of 2010. the experimental treatments consisted of sole cropping of corn, white bean, bush bean, red bean, pinto bean and swo...

In order to provide a reference range for hematological parameters and red blood cells indices in Thai children, we analyzed data from 395 healthy non-anemic Thai children age from 1-16 years old, who all had normal pattern of hemoglobin typing (Hb A and Hb A2 less than 3.5%). Hematological analysis was performed using an automated cell counter and the hemoglobin studies were carried out by ele...

Background Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) is a devastating neurodegenerative caused by propagation of abnormally folded prion proteins (PrPSc). Some fluid biomarkers have been reported to be associated with duration in CJD. Based on studies which found that protein (PrPC) played role erythrocytic hematopoiesis, we evaluated the association between peripheral red blood cell indices and survival...
