    Abstract:
    In the period of March 1988-March 1989, in 20 Lower Austrian sheep breeding farms blood samples were taken in two-month intervals from sheep of the following breeds: 130 Tyrolean Mountain sheep, 59 German Improved Land breed, 59 East Friesian and 57 German Blackheaded Mutton breed sheep. The following standards for sheep were evaluated: Erythrocytes 7,2-11,9 T/L, haematocrit 0,25-0,41 1/L, haemoglobin 82-147 g/L, lymphocytes 34-80%, segmented neutrophils 10-53%, band neutrophils 1-3%, eosinophilic granulocytes 0-24%, basophilic granulocytes 0-1%, monocytes 0-1%, calcium 1,8-2,8 mmol/L, phosphorus 1,0-2,6 mmol/L, magnesium 0,6-1,3 mmol/L, total protein 53-81 g/L, albumin 22-41 g/L, aspartate aminotransferase 27-81 U/L, alanine aminotransferase 3-25 U/L, gamma glutamic transaminase 24-59 U/L, alkaline phosphatase 44-355 U/L, creatine kinase 3-130 U/L, glutamic dehydrogenase 2,0-36,5 U/L, total bilirubin 0,7-5,1 mumol/L, cholesterol 1,1-3,2 mmol/l, urea nitrogen 1,3-12,7 mmol/l, creatinine 50-112 mumol/L. Apart from that, additional standards for the mentioned breeds of sheep were evaluated, revealing significant differences. Also the age and the time of the year proved to have an influence upon the ascertained blood values.
