CLINICAL, HEMATOLOGICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL TESTS OF MALLARDS[ANAS PLATYRHYNCHOS, (L.)] FOLLOWING AN EXPERIMENTALLYINDUCED INTOXICATION WITH LEAD AMMUNITION
Journal Title: TRADITION AND MODERNITY IN VETERINARY MEDICINE - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Results from clinical, hematological and biochemical tests following an experimentally induced leadintoxication of mallards are presented. The clinical signs and the loss of body weight are proportional to thetoxic exposition. Lower levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin and erythrocyte indices are registered. The resultsfrom the biochemical tests show elevated levels of liver transaminases, hypoproteinaemia, hypoalbuminaemia,and, also, significantly lower serum calcium levels.
