Determination of Adenosine Deaminase and Acid Alpha Naphthyl Acetate Esterase Enzyme Activity of Kilis Goats

摘要

We examined alpha naphthyl acetate esterase and adenosine deaminase enzyme activity in peripheral blood of kilis goat. Our aim was to determine the percentage of ANAE positive lymphocytes and Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) measurements. The proportion of ANAE positive lymphocytes was determined to be 66%, ADA activity was determined to be 15.0?±1.15 U L-1. While, T lymphocytes showed an ANAE positive reaction, the eosinophil granulocytes, neutrophil granulocytes and monocytes also, showed a positive reaction. The reaction observed in T lymphocytes was a red-brown coloration, usually 1-2 granules, but enough small granules to fill the cytoplasm were detected rarely.
