title: Methods for repetitive measurements of multiple hematological parameters in individual rats.
abstract: Methods have been developed which permit frequent repetitive blood sampling of rats without perturbing physiological parameters of interest. These techniques allow a comprehensive hematological study over several weeks, in individual rats, thus permitting full documentation of selected parameters during growth and development.
