| Abstract | ||
| Ten blood samples were collected from jugular vein of healthy sheep and goats. These are normal physiological condition and good nutritional status in Salah Al-Deen Governorate (Balad, Samaraa, Alalam). After complete collection of anti coagulated samples transfer immediately in to laboratory for evaluation of red blood cell number, haemoglobin concentration and red blood cell diameter, by using hemolyzer. For examination of haemoglobin concentration. Haemocytometer used to examine red blood cell count and microscope supported with camera used to measure red blood cell diameter. After complete evaluation of these, the results showed the diameter of sheep red blood cells larger than goat are about 1.98um diameter large than goat and sheep contain large amount of haemoglobin than goat approximately 23.2mg/dl Hb. Sheep more than in goat and goat has large number of red blood cell than sheep. In comparison with normal physiological activity such as respiratory rate which more in goat 90 breath/min, and less in sheep 75 breath/min. The results showed small diameter of red cells and low concentration of haemoglobin in goat. For this reason require to make respiratory rate high than sheep to maintained sufficient amount of gas exchange. The present study was designed to demonstrate the morphometric and histological comparison of the blood samples between the sheep and goat | ||
