Diagnosis Techniques of the Neutropenia Syndrome – Immobility of the Leucocytes with Dogs
Abstract
Primary immunodeficits related to the phagocitary function, signaled in dogs, constitute a cause in the activation of certain variable, uncharacteristic clinical signs, with an uncertain therapeutic response. An immunodeficit condition framable in this group is the neutropenia syndrome – immobility of leucocytes which can be diagnosed through functional evaluation techniques of the neutrophiles. In this sense there was used the evaluation technique of migration through filtering layer and under agarose, the evaluation technique of the capacity of embedment of carbon particles and the evaluation technique of the total bactericide capacity.
