Sources of variation introduced into a phagocytosis assay as a result of the isolation of neutrophils from bovine blood.
1988
Paape M.J. | Miller R.H.
A study was conducted to examine sources of variation introduced into a phagocytosis assay as a result of the isolation of neutrophils from bovine blood, including variation attributable to isolation of neutrophils from blood, variation between duplicate determinations of percentage phagocytosis, and the variation in the ability of neutrophils isolated from blood (over repeated collections from the jugular vein) to phagocytose. For the phagocytosis assay, jugular venous blood from each of 4 cows was divided into 2 equal portions. The neutrophils were isolated by lysis of red blood cells with 0.2% sodium chloride. The neutrophils (2 X 10(7)) were incubated in duplicate with 32P-labeled Staphylococcus aureus ([32P]SA; 2 X 10(8)) inskimmed milk samples (2.5% final concentration) prepared from 4 cows. This process was repeated thrice on neutrophils isolated from 4 cows at 2-week intervals. The proportions of variation in percentage of 32P-labeled S aureus phagocytosed between duplicate neutrophil isolations and between duplicate assay determinations were 0 and 1%. Differences among skimmed milk sources and among runs, using blood neutrophils taken at different times from the same donor cow, accounted for 62 and 36% of the total variation. The results indicated that variation arising from blood neutrophil isolation introduced into a phagocytosis assay within a single-day trial is of no concern. The large variation among skimmed milk sample sources indicated differences among cows in the ability of their milk to support phagocytosis. The variation in neutrophil isolations over time for any cow was considered too large to allow for evaluation of physiologic and environmental effects on phagocytosis of neutrophils isolated from blood.

Experimental trichothecene (T-2) toxicosis in Korean native goats.
1988
Kim J.S.
To investigate the effects of T-2 toxin on the blastogenesis of lymphocytes, pathology, hemogram and blood chemistry in the goat, the Korean native goats were treated orally with T-2 toxin for 21 days with a dosage of 0.6mg per kg body weight. The total count of leukocytes and lymphocytes decreased significantly from 14 to 21 days after treatment. Myeloid : erythroid ratios increased significantly on days 12 after treatment Delayed-type hypersensitivity skin reactions to tuberculin were reduced predominantly. T-2 toxin induced prolonged prothrombin time. Mitogenic responses of lymphocytes to both lipopolysaccharide and phytohemagglutinin were significantly depressed on days 7 and 14 after treatment. Treatment of T-2 toxin caused marked depletion of lymphocytes in the thymus, mesenteric lymph node, Peyer's patches and spleen.

Observations were made on the blood picture of 50 multiparous and 98 infertile cows. Mean values of RBC, Hb, PVC, MCV, MCH, MCHC and platelets for normal multiparous cows were 6.87+-0.84X10** (6)/mm** (3), 10.3+-1.3g/100ml, 31.4+-3.7ml/100ml, 46.1+-6.9u** (3), 15.3+-2.6pg, 34+-2.7%, and 372.7+-304.7X10** (3)/mm** (3) respectively. Mean values of RBC, Hb, PVC, MCV, MCH, MCHC and platelets for infertile cows were 7.00+-0.98X10** (6)/mm** (3), 10.6+-1.2g/100ml, 32.1+-3.6ml/100ml, 45.8+-6.7u** (3), 15.3+-1.8pg, 33.9+-3.3%, and 382.7+-157.5X10** (3)/mm** (3), respectively. Mean values of WBC count for normal multiparous and infertile cows were 7.92+-1.72 and 9.04+-2.87X10** (3)/mm** (3) respectively. In the differential leukocytes count, mean values of neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils for normal multiparous cows were 29.7+-7.9%, 56.8+-7.6%, 2.9+-1.9%, 9.9+-5.3% and 0.3+-0.7%, respectively, and mean values of neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils for infertile cows were 31.9+-7.8%, 57.5+-7.9%, 2.6+-1.9%, 7.5+-4.8%, and 0.4+-0.2%, respectively

The present study was conducted in order to get the normal hematologic values of Korean Jindo dogs. Blood samples were taken from 328 (male 92, female 236) healthy Jindo dogs in Jindo area. The mean values of red blood cell (RBC) count, hemoglobin (Hb) content and packed cell volume (PCV) in the age group of less than one year were 6.77(male 7.44, female 6.76)X10** (6)/ul, 13,14(male 13.53, female 12.99)g/100ml and 43.28(male 44.47, female 42.79)ml/100ml, respectively, whereas the RBC count, Hb content and PCV in the age group of one year and more were 7.42(male 7.44, female 7.42)X10** (6)/ul, 14.98(male 15.56, female 14.76)g/100ml and 47.18(male 48.43, female 46.71)ml/100ml, respectively. The values of RBC count, Hb content and PVC appeared to be higher in the male than in the female and it increased with aging in the age group of less than one year. The mean values of mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin content (MCHC) in the age group of less than one year were 63.93(male 65.40, female 63.30)fl, 19.41(male 19.90, female 19.22) pg and 30.36(male 30.43, female 30.36)g/100ml respectively, whereas the MCV, MCH and MCHC in the age group of one year and more were 63.58(male 65.09, female 62.95)fl, 20.19(male 20.91, female 19.89) pg and 31.75(male 32.13, female31.60)g/100ml respectively. The values of MCV, MCH and MCHC appeared to be higher in the male than in the female. No differences were found in the MCV and MCH between age groups. The MCHC appeared to be higher in older age group. Mean platelet count in the age group of less than one year was 377,391(male 398,778, female 368,721)/ul, whereas mean platelet count in the age group of one year and more was 354,657(male 373,660, female 347,512)/ul. The platelet count appeared to be higher in the male than in the female and especially lower in the age group of three years and more (305,513/ul) than in the other age groups
