Bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, can be separated into coastal and offshore ecotypes based upon hemoglobin levels, packed cell volumes, and red blood cell counts, the offshore form having higher values for all three measures. Captive-bred crosses between coastal and offshore types produce animals with intermediate hematologic profiles suggesting a significant genetic basis for these differences.

Haemograms were determined for 90 Mystromys, 3-24 months of age, to establish normal values and to evaluate the influence of age and gender. Males over 6 months of age had higher red blood cell counts, packed cell volumes and haemoglobin levels than females of the same age. The haemograms of females 3-5 months old resembled those of males. Age and gender did not cause detectable differences in leucocyte numbers in animals over 6 months old.

Haematological and serum biochemical measurements were carried out in 1-year-old hairless and haired hybrids derived from the Mexican hairless dog (MHD). These hybrids included F1 hybrids obtained from male MHD and female Beagles, and BCF1 hybrids obtained from male hairless F1 and female Beagles. There were no significant differences between F1 and BCF1 hybrids, nor between male and female hybrids. Except for red blood cell counts, haemoglobin concentrations and packed cell volumes which were slightly higher in MHD-descendants than in Beagles, there were no differences for haematological and serum biochemical findings between hairless and haired hybrids when compared to age-matched Beagles.

Abstract Objectives Serum lipids may influence the lifespan of erythrocytes, and have been associated with clinical erythrocyte indices at the population level. Consumption of whole eggs vs. egg whites exerts varying effects on serum lipids and lipoprotein profiles; therefore, we investigated whether egg-induced changes in serum lipids correspond to changes in clinical erythrocyte markers. Methods Young, healthy men and women (18–35y, BMI < 30 kg/m2, n = 11) were recruited to participate in an ongoing intervention trial. All subjects followed an egg-free diet for 4 weeks, then were randomized to consume either 3 whole eggs or 3 egg whites per day for 4 weeks. Fasting serum lipids, complete blood cell counts, and dietary intake analysis was performed at the end of each study period. Results Average serum lipids and erythrocyte indices were within normal ranges at the end of each diet period. Changes in total cholesterol following the whole egg (+4.8%) and egg white (0.4%) diet period were not significant as compared to the egg-free diet period. Similarly, clinical erythrocyte markers were not significantly altered by daily consumption of whole eggs or egg whites. However, changes in total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol between diet periods were positively correlated with changes in total red blood cell counts and hemoglobin. Total cholesterol was additionally correlated with hematocrit levels, and negatively associated with red cell distribution width. Total red blood cell counts and hemoglobin were further correlated with changes in the total cholesterol to HDL-cholesterol ratios, but not HDL-cholesterol alone. Conclusions Our findings indicate that egg-induced changes in serum lipids are associated with clinical erythrocyte indices, and that total cholesterol levels and dyslipidemia may be more significant determinants of erythrocyte profiles.
