  1. Data are presented as mean (±s.d.).
  2. The initials like in Table 1. Letters denote SD for each independent breed in each blood component. a: SD (P<0.001) from P-PRP and, PPP. b: SD (P<0.001) from PPP. c: SD (P<0.05) from PPP. d: SD (P<0.001) from P-PRP. e: SD (P<0.05) from P-PRP. †: variable SD (P<0.001) between the two breeds. ‡: variable SD (P<0.05) between the two breeds. *Data are presented as median (IR).
