  1. Ht hematocrit, Rbc red blood cells, Hc hemoglobin concentration, MCHC mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, MCV mean corpuscular volume, MCH mean corpuscular hemoglobin levels, Wbc white blood cells, Nc Neutrophil count, L lymphocytes, M monocytes. Values are mean ± SEM (n = 3 per group), differences were considered significant when p-values were less than 0.05 (p < 0.05)
  2. a: values non-significantly different; b: values significantly different
