description | Since the composition of fish blood is fundamental to a
comprehensive understanding of the normal and pathological biology of
fish, haematology will play an important role in the diagnosis of fish
diseases in the future. Therefore, economically important some freshwater fish species (Salmo gairdneri Rich., Silurus glanis L., Cyprinus carpio L.
and Leuciscus cephalus L.) in Turkey have been studied for identification
of leucocyte types and leucocyte formula.<p>
May Grünwald - Giemsa mixed stain was used fo~ the differential
leucocyte count and identification of leucocytes of fish species. Since, the
nucleus of leucocytes was not stained sufficiently with Giemsa stain, 1.5
drops of concentrated Giemsa stain were aded in 1 ml of distilled water.<p>
The mean percentage and the identification of each type of leucocyte
present was calculated for each species.<p>
It is concluted that, the differentialleucocyte count and their pictures
of some fishes given in this paper will help the comparative haematologist
to understand better the circulating blood values of freshwater hishes. |
