Abstract
Effects of three stress-producing factors: capture, transportation, and starving on hematological parameters of carp blood were studied. Oxygen deficiency and crowding of fishes occurring on capture and transportation as well as a 21-week starving were found to considerably affect the hematological parameters examined, the effect being confirmed by statistical tests.
