|---|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | Clear - Yellow | < 2.0 | < 7.5 x10 (9) | 20 - 80% mononuclear cells, 40 - 80% neutrophils |
| Non-strangulating Obstruction | Clear - Yellow, Slightly turbid | < 3.0 | < 3.0 - 15.0 x 10 (9) | Mostly neutrophils (preserved) |
| Strangulating Obstruction | Red - Brown, Turbid | 2.5 - 6.0 | 5.0 - 50.0 x 10 (9) | Mostly neutrophils (degenerate) |
| Proximal Enteritis | Yellow - Red, Turbid | 3.0 - 4.5 | < 10.0 x 10 (9) | Mostly neutrophils (preserved) |
| Bowel Rupture | Red - Brown - Green, Turbid with or without particulate matter | 5.0 - 6.5 | 20 - 150 x 10 (9) | > 95% neutrophils ( severely degenerate), intracellular or extracellular bacteria, with or without particulate matter |
| Septic Peritonitis | Yellow - White, Turbid | > 3.0 | 20.0 - 100.0 x 10 (9) | Mostly neutrophils (degenerate) |
