Abstract

Present investigation deals with the haematological studies on freshwater fish Tor putitora, an economical fresh water fish, with reference to Aeromonas hydrophila infection. The haematological parameters included Total Erythrocyte Count (TEC), Total Leucocytes Count (TLC), Packed Cell Volume (PCV), Haemoglobin concentration (Hb.C), Differential Leucocyte Count (DLC), Mean corpuscular Volume (MCV), Mean Corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) and Mean Corpuscular Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC). Thrombocytes, Lymphocytes percentage, eosinophil of infected fish decreased when compared with the healthy fish but MCV, TEC, neutrophil percentage. Monocytes of the infected fish increased when compared with the normal fish.
