Clinically healthy Korean adult cattle (20 females and 20 males) were selected and subjected to the experiments on the determination of erythrocytes and total leukocytes values at the stages of pre and post-slaughting. Throughout the studies the following results were obtained.
1. The erythrocytes values, at the stage of the pre-slaughter, of females and males were 6.070 × 10^6/cmm and 6.175 × 10^6/cmm respectively. In the case of post-slaughter stage, 7.780 × 10^6/cmm and 7.705 × 10^6/cmm were obtained for female and male respectively. In comparison on the values of erythrocytes between pre and post-slauglnter stages, the mean value of the latter has been increased significantly.
2. The total leukocytes value, at the stage of the pre-slaughter of females and males were 9,525/cmm and 9, 630/cmm respectively. In the case of post-slaughter stage, 7,545/cmm and 7,510/cmm were obtained for females and males respectively. In comparison on the values of total leukocytes between pre and post-slaughter stages, the mean value of the latter has been decreased significantly.
