The effect of dietary rapeseed meal on the haematology and thrombocyte ultrastructure of the adult fowl.
A macrocytic anaemia developed with significant reductions in red and white blood cell counts in female fowls fed a diet containing 10% rape-seed meal; males were less affected. Electron microscopy revealed many lipid profiles within the thrombocytes whose numbers appeared normal.
