The aim of this study was to determine the percentage of individual types of leukocytes in fish of economicprinus carpio L.. tench - Tinca tinca L
Leukocytes stained according to Giemsa were classified as: lymphocytes. monocytes. myelocytes. metamyelocytes. neutrophilic granulocytes with band and segmented nuclei. eosinophils and basophils
There are the results of determinations of the percentage distribution of individual types of leukocytes in fish species of economic and main indicator importance in Figs 1 to 13
Summary
The aim of this study was to determine the percentage of individual types of leukocytes in fish of economic (carp - C)prinus carpio L.. tench - Tinca tinca L. Monocytes were sporadic in all the fish species; with the highest mean value found in the female spawner. The highest percentage of granulocytic series cells was found in rainbow (15.4 ± 7.80'k) and brown trout (11.6 ± 7.23%): whereas the lowest values in the perch (0.8 ± 1.01 and 2.4 ±3.15%). Eosinophilic granulocytes were found sporadically in the tench (0.17 ± 0.59%) and in 3-year old carp (0.10 ± 0.19%). Basophilic granulocytes were not found in any of the fish species examined. There were no significant differences in the percentage of individual leukocytes in male and female spawners of 3-year-old carp. The percentage distribution of individual types of leukocytes were studied by Koufil et al (1989) in the brood tench after application of y-globulines, by
