The effect of housing condition on cell blood count, leukocyte subpopulations and whole blood stimulation assay. AC represent haemoglobin (Hb), platelet (Plt) and mean corpuscular volume (MCV), respectively. DI sequentially show the leukocyte subpopulations of the total T cells, cytotoxic T cell, B cells, monocytes, granulocytes and NK cells. J expresses the ratio of granulocyte/lymphocyte (Gran/Lymph). K, L exhibits the difference between both housing conditions in the level of IL1ß and TNF-α after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge for the whole blood stimulation assay. ‘*’ and ‘**’ indicate significant differences for conventional housing (CH) vs. enriched housing (EH) pigs (post hoc comparison, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01)
