    Abstract:
    This experimental study was conducted to assess the alterations in hematobiochemical values of cattle infected with stephanofilarial microfilariae. Hematological studies of infected cattle revealed significant (P<0.05) decrease in Hb%, PCV and TEC values whereas TLC values were significantly (P<0.05) increased. There was insignificant increase in lymphocyte concentration (%), significant (P<0.05) increase in eosinophil concentration (%) and insignificant decrease in neutrophil concentration (%) in infected cattle in relation to control animal. Biochemical studies revealed that the values of glucose, alkaline phosphatase, AST and ALT were significantly (P<0.05) increased in infected cattle than control cattle. However, the value of total serum protein was not affected.
