The purpose of this study was to determine changes in hematological and plasma indices of Common Carp Cyprinus carpio with regard to age, sex and hormonal treatment. Sixty fish were used to assess the age factor. Also, 20 fish including female and male were assigned to determine blood indices with regard to sex and hormonal treatment. The pituitary gland extract was used as hormone for males an...

The effect of different sublethal concentrations of diazinon at 1, 2 and 4 mg/L on some hematological and biochemical parameters of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) weighing 850±155g was studied after 1, 7, 15, 30 and 45 days post exposure to the toxicant as a bath for 12 hours at 18-22 C. In one day exposure fish to the toxicant, the values of neutrophiles exposed to 2 and 4mg/L were signi...

A 4-year-old, female cocker spaniel was presented for investigation of acute onset vomiting and lethargy. Pyrexia, abdominal discomfort marked distension were detected during clinical examination. Clinicopathological findings revealed mild neutrophilia with band neutrophils. Biochemistry showed a hyperalbuminemia (40 g/L; reference: 23–35) elevation alanine aminotransferase (165 U/L; 0–110). co...

Purpose: This study examined the effect of three different energy sources on hematology and serum biochemistry rabbits.
 Methodology: Eighteen seven-weeks old rabbits where randomly divided into groups (A, B C), each consisting six rabbits. Group A, C were given maize, sorghum millet respectively as their fed for a period five weeks before sample collection analysis.
 Findings: The re...

Bovine serum albumin is a model protein, which has been conventionally used as protein standard and in many areas of biochemistry, pharmacology and medicine. Radioiodination procedure for bovine serum albumin employing chloramine-T as an oxidant with slight modification was evaluated critically to establish the optimal conditions for the preparation of radiolabeled tracer ((125)I-BSA) with requ...

The main objective of this study was to establish background levels of serum PCDD/Fs and biochemistry of residents living near municipal waste incinerators (MWIs) which had been operating between 1 and 8 years, and also to examine the association between the serum PCDD/Fs levels and health outcomes of interest. Information on medical history, life-style, and dietary habits was obtained by quest...

AIM The aim of the study was to establish the baseline hematology and serum biochemistry values for Indian leopards (Panthera pardus fusca), and to assess the possible variations in these parameters based on age and gender. MATERIALS AND METHODS Hemato-biochemical test reports from a total of 83 healthy leopards, carried out as part of routine health evaluation in Bannerghatta Biological Park...
