Description	Study of some haematological and immunological parameters of participants in the polar expedition of James Rosse Island 2014/2015 Hematologic parameters: erythrocyte count, hemoglobin, transferrin, Immunological parameters: number of white blood cells and their single types, CRP, IgA, IgM, IgG, C3, C4 complement components, Determination of total protein, Determination of total mn. Albumin Biochemical parameters: ALT Urine parameters: pH of white blood cells, protein, nitrite, blood and hemoglobin. In this work 19 selected hematological, immunological and biochemical parameters, which are present in inflammatory reactions in the organism and / or tissue damage were evaluated. A target group of 15 polar bears were chosen who lived in an isolated and extreme Antarctic environment. 14 statistically significant differences in concentrations of immunological and haematological parameters were provisionally determined, depending on the conditions and duration of the stay of the investigated persons.
