Clinico-pathological examinations were conducted on wild white-winged scoters (Melanitta fusca) contaminated with fuel oil (Bunker C oil) from a capsized cargo ship in February 1993 in Japan. The erythrocyte count, hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit value in the oiled seaducks all were decreased and numerous immature erythrocytes were observed in blood smears. In addition, hemosiderosis was observed in the liver, kidney, and lung of some birds. We propose that the sea-ducks suffered from hemolytic anemia induced by ingestion of oil, which occurs when the birds preen their oiled plumage.
1993年2月，在日本对因一艘倾覆货船泄漏的燃料油（C型船用燃料油）而受污染的野生白翅斑脸海番鸭（Melanitta fusca）进行了临床病理检查。受油污影响的海鸭的红细胞计数、血红蛋白浓度和血细胞比容值均下降，并且在血涂片中观察到大量未成熟红细胞。此外，在一些鸟类的肝脏、肾脏和肺中观察到含铁血黄素沉着症。我们认为这些海鸭因摄入油污而患上溶血性贫血，这种情况发生在鸟类梳理被油污覆盖的羽毛时。
