Abstract :

Hematological changes in Cockerel birds exposed to diesel generator exhaust for 30 and 60 minutes; at different distance levels i.e. for 2ft, 6ft and 10ft, for different length of period’s i.e. 7 days, 14 days, 21 days and 28 days and the values were compared with control groups. Each group comprising six birds and values were presented as mean + S.E. and the values were analyzed by F’ test at 5% degree level of freedom. Blood samples collected from achial vein were processed for different hematological parameters viz. Total erythrocyte count (TEC), Packed cell volume (PCV) were investigated. Total erythrocyte counts were found to be significantly lower in exposed groups. Packed cell volume was significantly increased.
