title: Blood parameters in Leucocytozoon smithi infected poults fed clopidol.
abstract: Poults naturally infected with L. smithi demonstrated a significant (P less than 0.01) decrease in arterial PO2 (mm. Hg) during the second and third weeks after exposure to black fly bites. Poults fed Clopidol (0.0125%) during the exposure period and subsequent experimental periods showed very little parasitemia and no significant reduction in arterial PO2.
