Influence of Trichobilharzia regenti (Digenea: Schistosomatidae) on the defence activity of Radix lagotis (Lymnaeidae) Haemocytes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Radix lagotis is an intermediate snail host of the nasal bird schistosome Trichobilharzia regenti. Changes in defence responses in infected snails that might be related to host-parasite compatibility are not known.

EFFECT OF FOLIC ACID ON THE HAEMOGRAM and SILK PRODUCTIVITY OF MULBERRY SILKWORM Bombyx mori L: (LEPIDOPTERA- BOMBYCIDAE) [PDF]
Journal of Plant Protection and Pathology, 2007 The present investigation reports the effect of folic acid as supplemented feed on haemogram and some biological parameters of Bombyx mori L. All the tested concentrations of folic acid especially 10mg/100ml significantly increased the weight of larvae

A haemocyte tropism for an arbovirus
Journal of General Virology, 2009 Horizontally transmitted mosquito-borne viruses enter the midgut with a blood meal then disseminate to infect the salivary glands. En route to the salivary glands, these viruses encounter the plasma (haemolymph) and blood cells (haemocytes). Haemocytes respond to a variety of micro-organisms, but their role in virus replication and dissemination has ...

A comparison of the TC10™ automated cell counter and the hemocytometer for quantifying insect hemocytes. [PDF]
, 2013 Hemocytes are an essential component of the invertebrate innate immune system (Strand 2008). Their close similarities to vertebrate white blood cells enable their use as a tractable model for immunological research. The quantification of hemocytes in the
