Abstract:
The sexual difference in blood chemical tests and the correlation among these tests were investigated in 40 male and 40 female quails. Significant intersex differences were observed in serum total protein, total cholesterol, triglyceride, calcium, phosphorus, uric acid and glucose levels but not in alkaline phosphatase and aspartate aminotransferase levels. In the female quails, many of the blood chemicals that showed a significant sexual difference were strongly correlated with each other.
