HEMATOLOGICALVALUES OF THE YELLOW-FOOTEDTORTOISE (GEOCHELONE DENTICULATA) RAISED IN CAPTIVITY

HEMATOLOGICALVALUES OF THE YELLOW-FOOTEDTORTOISE (GEOCHELONE DENTICULATA) RAISED IN CAPTIVITY

The objective of the study was to obtain hematological referential values forGeochelone denticulata tortoise. Blood samples of 44 tortoises, maintained in captivityin Iquitos city, Peru, were collected by puncture of the subcarapacial vein. Bloodparameters under evaluation were red blood cell number (RBC), white blood cell number(WBC), hematocrit (Ht), hemoglobin (Hb), differential leukocyte counts and erythrocyteindexes. Cloacal temperature and body weight were used as a reference for health status.The average values were: RBC 0.44 x 106mL, WBC 7.82 x 103mL, Ht 20.3%, Hb 7.0 g/dl,MCV 502.7 fl, MCH 171.4 pg, MCHC 34.1 g/dl. Leukocyte differential counts were:Heterophils 55.6%, Lymphocytes 25.5%, Eosinophils 15.8%, Basophils 1.5%, Monocytes0.4%, Azurophils 1.2%. Results were similar to values reported for the species.

El estudio tuvo por objetivo obtener valores hematológicos de referencia de la tortuga motelo (Geochelone denticulata). Se utilizaron 44 individuos mantenidos en cautiverio en la ciudad de Iquitos-Perú. Se colectó la sangre por punción de la vena subcarapacial y se determinó recuento de glóbulos rojos (RGR), recuento de glóbulos blancos (RGB), hematocrito (Ht), hemoglobina (Hb), recuento diferencial de leucocitos e índices eritrocíticos. La temperatura cloacal y el peso corporal se emplearon como referencia del estado de salud. Los valores promedio fueron: RGR 0.44 x 106μL, RGB 7.82 x 103μL, Ht 20.3%, Hb 7.0 g/dl, VCM 502.7 fl, HCM 171.4 pg, CHCM 34.1 g/dl. El recuento diferencial de leucocitos fue: Heterófilos 55.6%, Linfocitos 25.5%, Eosinófilos 15.8%, Basófilos 1.5%, Monocitos 0.4%, Azurófilos 1.2%. Los resultados coinciden con los intervalos de referencia documentados para la especie.
