Determination of alpha naphtyl acetate asterase activity in the peripheral blood leukocytes in Angora rabbits

Bu çalışma Ankara tavşanlarının perifer kan lökositlerinde alfa naftil asetat esteraz aktivitesinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapıldı. Çalışmada materyal olarak 10 adet sağlıklı ve erişkin Ankara tavşanlarından alınan heparinize kan örnekleri kullanıldı. ANAE aktivitesinin belirlenmesi için değişik pH' larda ANAE boyaması uygulandı. İncelenen preparatlarda T lenfosit, monosit, nötrofil ve eozinofil granulositler ile kan pulcuklarinda ANAE'ye karşı pozitif reaksiyona rastlandı. ANAE pozitif lenfosit oranı % 68,2 olarak saptandı.

Ankara tavşanlarının perifer kan lökositlerinde alfa naftil asetat esteraz aktivitesinin belirlenmesi

The aim of this study was to determine the alpha naphthyl acetate esterase (ANAE) activity in the peripheral blood leukocytes in Angora rabbits. The heparinized blood sample's obtained from 10 healthy adult Angora rabbits were used. ANAE stainings were applied at different pH values for the determination of ANAE activities. The ANAE positive reactions were observed in the T lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils and platelets. The ANAE positive lymphocyte rate was found to be 68.2%.
