| Abstract | ||||
| A number of 300 day·old ducldings from each Khaki-Campbell and Domyali breeds was used to compare both blood constituents and immunity response under the Egyptian environmental conditions. In general. concentrations of totat lipids, chotestercl, calcium. hemoglobin and hematocrit value were significantly higher in Khaki-Campbell than Domyati ducks. However, concentrations of total protein, albumin. globulin, inorganic phosphorus and activity of GOT and GPT significantly incraased in Domyati as compared to Khaki-Campbell ducks. Relative weighls of pancreas. thymus and spleen and absolute weight of thymus and spteen were i'igher in Domyati than Khaki-Campbell duds. Count of WBC's and drstribution of lymphocytes significantly increased in Domyati ducks, while hetercpnils distribution and HIl ratio increased in Khaki-Campbell ducks. Both primary and secondary responses against SR8C's were si9nificantly higher in Oomy •. ti duclcs (92.2 and 272.6) than Khaki-Campbell ones (66.1 and 241.5), respectively. | ||||
