Summary: | The blood of Meghalaya Local pigs of different ages i.e. 0 day, 15 days, 1 month, 2 months, 4 months and 6
months) were collected and studied various cytological parameters like Hb. (g.percent), TEC (million/cmm),
PVC (percent), ESR (mm/hr.), TLC (thousand/cmm), Neutrophil (percent), Eosinophil (percent) and Lymphocyte
(percent). Newborn piglets showed an average Hb% of 6.9 ± 0.17, RBC counts of 3.81± 0.39 million/cmm of
blood and which increased with the advancement of age. PVC% was found to be lowest in newborn piglets 18.3
± 0.69 and highest in 6 months age 45.5 ± 0.51. Neutrophil count was significantly higher in newborn piglets
52.67 ± 1.35 and basophil was also observed to be present in the age group of 1 month, 2 months, and 6 months. |
