Abstract

Sea bass is a member of the Latidae family, which two Asian species (Lates calcarifer) and European (Dicentrarchus labrax) are more popular for breeding, and most research related to this fish is focused on these two species. Having a normal range of biochemical and hematological parameters, also known as blood table, is important in research related to this fish. In this regard, by reviewing the authoritative sources published during the last 50 years in the databases of PubMed, Google Scholar, Islamic World Citation Database and Jahad Daneshgahi database, this information includes the normal range of glucose, cholesterol, triacylglycerol, total protein, albumin, blood enzymes, hormones; Thyroid, cortisol, testosterone and blood electrolytes as well as the number of red blood cells and related parameters and the number of white blood cells are scientifically collected and classified so that it can be used as a coherent source in related research.
