The mean cell fragility (MCF) values of different naturally infected Kedah-Kelantan x Brahman cattle groups from Muadzam Pahang Malaysia. The MCF values were extrapolated from the erythrocyte osmotic fragility curve in Fig. 7 and represents the saline concentration in which 50% haemolysis occurred. There was significant difference in the mean cell fragility of all blood pathogen infected cattle groups, relative to the clinically healthy cattle (p < 0.05). TE: Trypanosoma evansi infected cattle; AP + TS: Anaplasma platys + Theileria sinensis; CMH: Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos infected cattle; TS: Theileria sinensis infected cattle; TO+AM: Theileria orientalis + A. marginale infected cattle, TS + CMH: Theileria sinensis + Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos infected cattle, TO+TS: Theileria orientalis + Theileria sinensis infected cattle; CMH + TS + AM: Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos + Theileria sinensis + Anaplasma marginale infected cattle. CHC: Clinically healthy cattle
