Standard serum chemical and haematological values in the chacma baboon (Papio ursinus).

Blood chemical and haematological determinations were carried out on 64 baboons. The blood chemical and haematological values determined were found to be in general agreement with the values for man and other primate species. Some blood constituents however, did show noteworthy differences. Marked sex differences were demonstrated in some blood chemical and haematological parameters.
