| Summary: | <b>Aim:</b> In this study, it was aimed to reveal normal values of
some hematological and biochemical parameters in Van cats
having different ages and gender and in these parameters the
changes that occur depending on age and gender.<p>
<b>Materials and Methods:</b> In this study, 60 healthy Van cats
having different age and gender were used. The cats in both
genders divided into 3 different groups among them according
to their ages. The cats 6 to 12 months were taken to the
study as 1st group, 12 to 24-month cats were taken to the
2nd group, and 24 to more-month cats were taken to the 3rd
group. From blood samples received, hematological and biochemical
parameter values were identified.<p>
<b>Results:</b> Significant differences were found in hematocrit,
hemoglobin and platelets levels from hematological parameters
and in serum creatinine level, lactate dehydrogenase
and creatinine kinase-MB activities from biochemical parameters.<p>
<b>Conclusions:</b> It has been surmised that in healthy van cats in
different ages and gender, the determination of normal values
of these parameters will help clinician physicians and the
researches in the assessment of diagnosis and prognosis of
the diseases and will contribute to the scientific studies to
be made. |
