The aim of this study was to assess the
influences of heat reflective roof coating on indoor
microclimate of building and blood serum biochemical
parameters. Half of the building roof was coated with
heat reflective coatings to investigate microclimate
compared to non-coated roof for eight consecutive days.
Collected blood samples from animals in both
microclimate were divided into, control; under not-
coated roof (n = 253) and treatment; under coated roof
(n = 292) groups. The significant differences (P < 0.05)
obtained for each parameters in both microclimate. The
temperature and THI were significantly (P < 0.05) lower
in treatment compared to control indoor environments,
wherase the relative humidity was significantly (P <
0.05) higher in treatment indoor microcliamte. Studied
blood parameters were not affected by indoor
microclimate except for total colesterol and calcium
which obtained significantly (P < 0.05) higher in treated
indoor microclimate. These results demonstrated that
heat reflective coating decrease heat invasion to inside
the shelter and make effective way to modify
microenvironment, and more attempts are needed to
investigate blood parameters which were not affected by
indoor microclimate variations.
