    Effects of Varying Ecological Conditions on the Blood Parameters of Freshwater Turtles in Canakkale (Turkey)
    (Foundation Environmental Protection & Research-Fepr, 2011) Tosunoğlu, Murat; Yilmaz, Nilgun; Gul, Cigdem
    This study examined the effect of variations in the water characteristics (dissolved oxygen, pH, conductivity and temperature) of the biotopes of freshwater turtles (Emys orbicularis and Mauremys rivulata) collected from different localities in Canakkale, Turkey on the blood parameters and put forward the variations in blood parameters for survival during wet and dry periods. According to the water quality of their biotopes, differences were detected in the erythrocyte and leukocyte counts of the species E. orbicularis and in the erythrocyte and leukocyte counts as well as in the MCV (mean cell volume) and MCH (mean cell hemoglobin) values in M. rivulata. In the species E. orbicularis, differences were detected in the biochemical sense in total protein and urea quantities between dry and wet periods.

    Hematological reference intervals of some snake species in Turkey
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2011) Tosunoğlu, Murat; Gul, Cigdem; Yilmaz, Nilgun; Topyildiz, Huseyin
    In this study, some blood parameters were studied in 7 distinct snake species (Dolichophis caspius, Eirenis modestus, Malpolon monspessulanus, Natrix natrix, Platyceps rubriceps, Telescopus fallax, and Typhlops vermicularis) of the families Colubridae and Typhlopidae, collected from various regions of Turkey. A total of 7 hematologic parameters, namely red blood cell count (RBC), white blood cell count (WBC), hematocrit value (HCT), hemoglobin concentration (Hb), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), were examined. It was detected that Platyceps rubriceps had the highest erythrocyte count and the lowest MCV value among the species examined, Telescopus fallax had the lowest erythrocyte count and hematocrit value, and Eirenis modestus had the highest hematocrit and MCV values. With this study, the variations observed in the blood measurements and counts of snakes were also observed in clinical parameters.
