The objective of this study was to investigate external appearances, vital signs, hematological parameters, malondialdehyde and total antioxidant power to find correlations and to predict total antioxidant power in cats. Body condition scores, mucous membrane color scores, heart rate, respiratory...

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in selected hematological parameters, lipid peroxidation and osmotic fragility of erythrocytes in Angora cats depending on age and gender. For this purpose, the blood samples were collected from vena saphena medialis of 9 young and 14 adult cats...

The objective of this study was to investigate clinicopathological parameters, malondialdehyde and total antioxidant power for analyzing correlation and predicting malondialdehyde in plasma of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV)-infected cats. Body condition score (BCS), mucous membrane color score ...

Background: Reticulocyte indices have been suggested as alternatives to transferrin saturation (TSAT) for iron status assessment in humans and dogs but they have not been evaluated thoroughly in cats. Objectives: To assess the value of the reticulocyte indices for the diagnosis of iron deficiency...

In recent years, black soldier fly larvae meal (Hermetia illucens; BSFLM) has gained attention as a high value alternative protein source that is of great interest to the pet food industry. However, little is known regarding the effects of BSFLM on health parameters in adult cats. Thus, the...

To evaluate the protective role of lycopene (LYC) against aflatoxin B₁ (AFB₁)-induced erythrocyte dysfunction and oxidative stress, male kunming mice were treated with LYC (5 mg/kg) and/or AFB₁ (0.75 mg/kg) by intragastric administration for 30 d. Hematological indices were detected to assess...

Trichlorfon (TCF) is an antiparasitic agent used in aquaculture to treat external parasites and it belongs to the chemical class of organophosphates. This study was conducted to investigate the ameliorating effects of lycopene on TCF-induced toxicity in carp by evaluating haematological parameters...

In this study, cobia (Rachycentron canadum) juveniles were utilised as an aquatic model to explore growth performance and immune indices after 70 days of feeding with supplementation of viable isolated microbes' concentrations of 1 × 10¹⁰ and 1 × 10¹² CFU/mL indigenous isolates Bacillus sp. RCS1...

The development and intensification of tilapia farming depends on the manipulation of some physiological functions, such as the sexual inversion of larvae using a synthetic androgen (17α-methyltestosterone). This inversion, however, may represent a potential oxidative stress factor and cause damage ...

Tramadol is among the most famous analgesic drugs used for the management, treatment and relief of moderate to severe pain conditions. The present study investigated the effects of tramadol on the behavior, mortality, morphometric, hematology and oxidative stress parameters of C. gariepinus...
