Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate different types of WBCs in a 10 years castrated Non-Descriptive (ND) cattle as there is no previous report on morphology of white blood cells of 10 years castrated ND cattle of Odisha Castration has profound effect on the morphology of white blood cells of Non-Descriptive cattle. Morphological features of various white blood cells of 05 Months castrated Non-Descriptive Cattle of Odisha was studied earlier. Blood sample was collected from jugular vein of one 10 years castrated Non-Descriptive by a skilled veterinary expert and blood smear was prepared on a grease-free microscopic slide, then air dried, fixation was done by methanol and staining was done by Giemsa stain for morphological study under a microscope under 40X objective and photographs of WBCs were taken and morphology were observed. Various types of WBCs were observed in this study namely small lymphocyte, large lymphocyte, small monocyte, large monocyte, trilobed neutrophil, tetralobed neutrophil, multilobed neutophils and eosinophils were observed.
