| Abstract: | One hundred and thirty-three blood samples from twenty-eight mammalian, nondomestic species were analyzed using both the Coulter ZBI and Fisher Autocytometer II. The WBC, RBC and Hb values for each species from both machines, were compared. The study indicated that for 27 species there was no significant difference (P > 0.05) between machines for the WBC. Twenty-one species showed no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the RBC results. Only one species exhibited a significant difference (P > 0.05) between machines in the hemoglobin value obtained. |
