Hematological analysis and relative condition factor in naturally parasitized Nile tilapia

ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the hematological profile and relative condition factor of naturally parasitized Nile tilapia from 12 fish farms in southern Brazil. A total of 240 fish were collected from four regions of the state of Santa Catarina. They were anesthetized, and the blood was co...
