WBC, white blood cell; RBC, red blood cell; HGB, hemoglobin; HCT, hematocrit; MCV, mean corpuscular volume; MCH, mean corpuscular hemoglobin; MCHC, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration; RDW, red blood cell distribution width; PLT, platelet count; SO, soya bean oil; SFO, sunflower oil; FLO, flax seed oil; FO, fish oil; CO, canola oil; SO + FO, soybean oil + fish oil; DHA, algal biomass; EO, echium oil; SEM, standard error mean. Differences between the treatment groups are statistically different at P ≤ 0.05, n = 10.
