Book Description
This text bridges the gap between human and veterinary transfusion medicine. The historical aspects show clearly how animals played an integral role, even as donors in early human transfusions. Cahpters on erythrocytes, white cells, platelets, and coagulation contain information pertaining to all species, but also describe specific animal models of human heamatologic diseases. This reference should be useful to both veterinarians involved in research or in clinical transfusions, and to physicians and other scientists using animals in research.
