The seasonality expressed in motility of frog Rana ridibunda Pall 1771 erythrocytes and leukocytes in agarose gel under the influence of the temperature

Abstract

The agarose migration test revealed the influence of temperature on seasonal fluctuation of locomotional activity of nuclear hemocytes of frogs of the genus Rana ridibunda Pall. It’s been shown that at different incubation temperatures, the spontaneous migration area of blood cells changed in spring and summer, and did not change during autumn and winter. It’s been found that the migratory activity of erythrocytes and leukocytes in the spring increased only at low incubation temperature, in the summer - both at low and at high temperatures.
