“…The Hct and Lct values of this study agree with those found in other research on fish blood (Hattingh, 1972, McCarthy et al, 1973and 1975, Schippers et al, 1994. The relative abundance of the different peripheral blood cells showed a predominance of old lymphocytes which is consistent with that reported for other species (Boon et al, 1990b, Peutz et al, 1996, Schippers et al, 1994.…”

“…Lymphocytopenia and neutrophilia were shown to occur in relationship to the spawning period (McCarthy et al, 1975;Ranzani-Paiva & Godinho, 1983;Kavamoto et al, 1985;Pickering, 1986) or stress due to low water temperature (Bennet & Neville, 1975;Pickering, 1986). Similar changes can occur due to parasitic infections.…”

Differential white blood cell counts from Schizodon intermedius infested by Lernaea cyprinacea were carried out and compared using the Wilcoxon matched pairs test. The observations were performed in fish infested by 16-77 adult Lernaea, fish with parasitic lesions but without attached crustaceans, and non parasitized fish (control group). The specimens of Schizodon intermedius were obtained from the University of Londrina fish farming facilities. The following leucocytes were observed: lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes, basophils, eosinophils and immature leucocytes. Intense lymphocytopenia and neutrophilia were observed in the infested hosts. Consistent increasing of monocyte percentage values occurred in the infested fish. The highest values for immature leucocytes counts were recorded from infested fish specimens.

“…The sedimentation rate of erythrocytes of rainbow trout has been reported by Barnhart (1969) and McCarthy, Stevenson & Roberts (1973, 1975). An increase in rate was observed in brook trout with furunculosis infection (Schumacher, Hamilton & Longtin, 1956).…”

Laboratory brook trout were used to evaluate, refine, or develop biochemical procedures for the analysis of fish blood. Analytical values were obtained for the following blood properties : total and differential leucocytes and erythrocytes; erythrocyte and plasma proteins (by electrophoresis) ; plasma refractive index; erythrocyte sedimentation rate; erythrocyte osmotic fragility; blood surface tension and density; haemoglobin; and packed cell volume. These blood factors are discussed with reference to fish health and disease and to changes caused by deleterious quantities of water pollutants. I. INTRODUCTIONKnowledge of the composition of fish blood and of the function of blood components is fundamental to a comprehensive understanding of the normal and pathological biology and biochemistry of fish. Such information is particularly important when interpreting the changes induced by water pollutants or other abnormal environmental factors. To establish reliable diagnostic blood and tissue tests for identifying systemic and metabolic dysfunctions of fish, more fundamental information is needed on normal fish blood and tissue, fish metabolism, and the variability of metabolic components.This report presents a study and review of some analytical procedures applicable to the study of certain fish blood factors that may be relevant to bio-physiological responses of fish to toxic water pollution and adverse environmental conditions. Some of the procedures have not been thoroughly investigated in fish.The following blood factors were analyzed in adult brook trout (Salvelinusfontinalis) maintained in the laboratory: total and differential leucocytes (thrombocytes, lymphocytes, and neutrophils) and erythrocytes (mature and immature); erythrocyte proteins and plasma proteins (by electrophoresis); plasma refractive index; erythrocyte sedimentation rate; erythrocyte osmotic fragility; blood surface tension; blood density; haemoglobin ; and packed cell volume.
