At day 21 pi, the Tz (1.55-6.47) and D (0.85-6.47) had some values that were within the reference value range, while some were higher; the TzD (5.70-9.35) group was higher when compared to the reference value range (0.54-3.39), the Tz group (2.82-4.95) was slightly higher, although some values were within the reference range, and D (0.35-1.40) were lower, while some values were within the reference range (0.54-3.39) and at day 35 pi the TzD (6.35-9.30) was higher than the reference value. Eosinophil levels were significantly decreased (\(p<0.01\)) in D group at day 21 and 28 pi and significantly higher at day 21 (\(p<0.05\)) and 35 (\(p<0.001\)) pi, respectively, in the TzD (Table 3). The percentage neutrophils were within the reference value range for all experimental groups on days 0, 7 and 14. Some values were higher, while some were within the reference range in the D (16.10-24.00) group on day 21 when compared to the reference values (6.14-22.9). Neutrophil concentration was within the reference value range on day 28 pi in all the experimental groups but higher on day 35 in the D (31.93-38.98) and TzD (24.95-35.70) groups, respectively, when compared to (6.14-22.9). A significant elevation (\(p<0.001\)) of neutrophils was observed in the D group at day 35 pi, and also in the TzD (\(p<0.01\)) in comparison to the Tz group. No significant differences were seen on other days in all experimental groups (Table 3). Percentage monocytes were below the reference value range in all experimental groups Tz (1.65-8.025), D (2.32-5.22) and TzD (2.37-10.20) at day 7, although some values were higher, while some were within the reference range (3.77-10.82). At day 21 pi, the D (10.10-12.00) group had higher ranges whilst the TzD (6.50-12.00) groups had values that were within the reference range, although some values were higher when compared to the reference value (3.77-10.82). Monocyte concentration showed a significant increase (\(p<0.05\)) in the D group at day 28 pi in comparison to the Tz group, and a slight increase was observed among the Tz (4.90-11.53) and the TzD (8.80-13.80), though some values were still within the reference range. The D (10.53-20.75) group had higher monocytes at day 35 pi, when compared to the reference values (3.77-10.82) (Table 3). Platelet concentration was within the reference value range on days 0 and 7 pi, but below the reference on day 14 pi for TzD (738.0-943.5), although some values were still within the range when compared to the reference value (923-1580). At day 21 pi, platelets concentration for Tz (791.0-912.0) was below the reference value, and D (871.5-1049) also had values below, while some values were within the reference value range. Additionally, at day 28 pi, in Tz(860.3-1005) and TzD (828.5-956.5), some values were below, while some were within the reference value range and at day 35 in the D (825.3-1083) group when compared to the reference value range (923-1580). Platelets were significantly higher (\(p<0.01\)) in the TzD group at day 21 pi compared to the Tz group, and significant reduced (\(p<0.001\)) platelets were also observed at day 35 pi in the D group (Table 3).
