Blood volume (males) = 



0.099 (Bd. wt.} - 9 - 0.03 X 0.099 (Bd. wt.} - 9 (21 a) 



= 0.09603 (Bd. wt} - 9 

 [150 < Bd. wt. < 350] 

 Blood volumes (females} = 



0.099 (Bd. wt.) - 9 + 0.06 X 0.099 (Bd. wt.) - 9 (21 b) 

 = 0.10494 (Bd. wt.} - 9 

 (150 < Bd. wt. < 350) 



By using the factor 1.056 for the specific gravity of the blood 

 corresponding formulas for the blood weight on body weight have 

 been obtained as follows: Hatai (MS '14). 



Blood weight (sexes combined} = 



0.099 (Bd. wt.} - 9 X 1.056 or = 0.1045 (Bd.wt.} - 9 (22) 



(5 < Bd. wt. < 150) 

 Blood weight (males} = 



0.1045 (Bd: wt.} - 9 - 0.03 X 0.1045 (Bd. wt.} - 9 (22 a) 



= 0.101365 (Bd. wt.} - 9 

 (150 < Bd. wt. < 350) 

 Blood weight (females} = 



0.1045 (Bd. wt.} - 9 + 0.06 X 0.1045 (Bd. wt.} - 9 (22 b) 

 = 0.11077 (Bd.wt} - 9 

 (150 < Bd. wt. < 350) 



These formulas (22) (22 a) and (22 b) for blood weight have 

 been used for table 146.
