title: [Chemical blood studies for establishing accurate values in fattening turkeys of different ages].
abstract: Standard values for several blood parameters in 20 male and 21 female turkeys of different age were established. The animals were kept on the floor, they were fed with a commercial feed without coccidiostat. The turkeys remained healthy during the time of investigation. From the 21st until 144th day of life once each week at 9 a.m., blood was taken from each turkey. Plasma samples were analysed by Automatic Greiner System, G 300 for the following parameters: alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate-aminotransferase (AST), alanine-aminotransferase (ALT), amylase, uric acid, cholesterol, total-protein, glucose, calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium and chloride. The results were computed, the mean values and standard deviation were determined and presented in tables.
