The dire wolf (Canis dirus, fearsome dog) is an extinct species of the genus Canis. It is perhaps one of the most famous prehistoric carnivores in North America along with its extinct competitor Smilodon, the sabre-toothed cat.
It is important they remain at adequate levels. As with platelets, neutrophil levels may become depressed in patients on myelosuppressive therapy such as imatinib mesylate (also called IM , Gleevec or Glivec ). The normal range of the percentage of neutrophils is between 45% and 70%. More important than the percentage of neutrophils is the absolute neutrophil count (ANC) , which should fall between 1.0 to 8.0 k/ul.
The number of neutrophils cells in the blood is measured by the absolute neutrophil number count. The neutrophils normal range is considered to be between 2500 and 6000. A number of neutrophils lower than the neutrophils normal range also increases the chances of bacterial infections.
