Haematological adjustments with diurnal changes in body temperature in a lizard and a mouse.
l. Hypothermic lizards (Egernia ctmninghami) showed significant reductions in plasma volume, haematocrit and haemoglobin concentration. The changes in the distribution of red cells were acutely reversible when body temperature was increased. 2. Consequently, there were no significant alterations in blood viscosity (when measured in z&o in a capillary viscometer) between body temperatures of 32°...

The object of this investigation was to find out how far this method could be employed usefully in India Command in place of the usual haematocrit technique, which requires equipment not always available. Assessments of mean corpuscular volume based on an inspection of dry. blood films or of the cells in the counting chamber cannot be expressed in figures, and it has thus been difficult to obta...

This study was conducted to determine the prevalence and effect of parasitic infection on erythrocyte indices in trade camels slaughtered in Maiduguri, Nigeria. Two hundred adult one humped camels comprised of 87 (43.5 %) males and 113 (56.5 %) females were examined for helminths and hemoparasites at their slaughter time according to the standard procedures. An overall prevalence of 79 % for s...
