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...

AIM The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of season and sex on hemato-biochemical parameters of turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) in the arid tropical environment. MATERIALS AND METHODS The experiment was conducted on 20-week old turkeys consisting of 20 males and 20 females. Blood was collected from all turkeys during January and May. Hemoglobin (Hb), red blood cell (RBC), packed...

Techniques now available for the study of plasma disappearance kinetics of isotopically labeled unconjugated bilirubin have led to new insights into the factors that determine the plasma unconjugated bilirubin concentration (BR). This variable can be shown to depend in turn on five other parameters: the total circulating red cell volume (TRVC), the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCH...

The effect of Carbosulfan (CB), a carbamate insecticide which has been used widely in agriculture, was investigated using wistar rat. Carbosulfan was administered orally at sublethal concentration at a dose of 25 mg/kg to 12 male rats ad libitum during the tests for 30 days consecutively. The effect of CB on hematological constituent [Red Blood Corpuscules (RBC), White Blood Corpuscules (WBC), ...

The objective of this work is assessment of the toxicological effects of carbaryl in the blood parameters of broiler chicks. Twenty day-old chicks were assigned to four treatments of 0mg/kgb.w. , 15mg/kgb.w. , 20mg/kgb.w. , and 25mg/kgb.w. of carbaryl. Total-red blood cell count (T-RBC) significantly increased in the carbaryl supplemented group. Insignificant decrease was found in mean corpuscu...

Hematological traits are important clinical indicators, the genetic determinants of which have not been fully investigated. Common measures of hematological traits include red blood cell (RBC) count, hemoglobin concentration (HGB), hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), MCH concentration (MCHC), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), platelet count (PLT) and white blood cell (WBC) count. ...

The intensive aquaculture needs accurate information on the identification and control of stress situations and/or diseases in order to ensure healthy fishes. The evaluation of blood parameters is the fastest way to detect stress symptoms. In this paper the hematocrit, hemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), differential count of defense cells (leucocytes and...

Original scientific paper The aim of this study was to determine and evaluation chronic effects of plyometric training on hematological parameters of the Turkish National Alpine Ski Team athletes during 12-week preparation period. In the study 12 sportsmen volunteers participated whose mean age was 17.50 years. Twelve weeks plyometric training protocol performed to participants. The training pr...
