a
CBC, complete blood count; RBC, red blood cells; WBC, white blood cells; PLT, platelets; HGB, hemoglobin; HCT, hematocrit; MCV, mean corpuscular volume; RDW, red blood cell distribution width; lymph, lymphocytes; neut, neutrophils; eos, eosinophils; baso, basophils; mono, monocytes; MPV, mean platelet volume.
b
n, no. of mice.
c
A, significantly different from mock-challenged animals (P < 0.005); B, significantly different from CI 77-challenged animals (P < 0.005). Statistical differences were determined by the Welch t test.
