Abstract: A total of 302 samples of healthy farm-cultured Rana catesbeiana specimens (9-21 months-old, 50-350 g liveweight, 50% each sex) from the northeast of Argentina, were analyzed through spectrophotometry, electrophoresis, densitometry, refractometry and microscopy in order to obtain blood and urine normal values. Confidence intervals (p<0.05) for PCV (28.6-31.6%), RBC (0.40-0.44 T/L), MCV (686-732 fL), hemoglobin (6.41-7.20 g/dL), MCH (151-164 pg), MCHC (22.6-24.0%), WBC (18.7-22.3 G/L), neutrophils (58.4-63.4%),… Show more

“…Glucose values found in this study were similar to those reported for Rana catesbeiana in captivity and free-range Polypedates teraiensis (38–53 mg/dl) [33,41,63,64], although A . callidryas from the Pacific showed slightly higher values.…”

“…Haematocrit values of all groups were similar to those found for several anurans, within a range of 22.4 to 58.5% [33,43,64,66,67], which is indicative of adequate hydration status. Changes in haematocrit have been shown as a consequence of the alimentary status of the animal, the supply of specific minerals (iron, copper and selenium) in addition to dietary protein, folic acid, cobalamin and niacin.…”
