Table 6.
Erythrogram of different experimental groups; * data are presented as mean ± Standard Error (SE) and results are averages of five independent readings.

* Data were analyzed by One-way ANOVA and there was a non-significant difference between untreated (control) and treated animals at p > 0.05. PCV, packed cell volume, Hb = hemoglobin (g/dL = gram/deciliter), RBCs = red blood cells count, MCV = main corpuscular volume (fL, femto-liter), MCHC = main corpuscular hemoglobin concentrations.
