Abstract

The aim of this study was to identify changes in parameters of blood count in rabbits with experimentally induced liver coccidiosis. In the experiment were used 12 New Zealand White rabbits, divided into experimental and control groups, each consisting of 6 animals. The animals from experimental group were orally infected by 50,000 sporulated E. stiedae oocysts. Blood samples were drawn from all rabbits before (0 hour) and 6, 24, 48 hours, and also 7, 14, 21, 28 days after infection. There were established significant differences (P<0.05) in the parameters of the blood count in the experimental group, compared to the control group.
