Leydig cell density was evaluated quantitatively in bilateral testicular
biopsies from twenty male rats of two equal groups Gossypol treated and
control. The method utilized for this quantitation is based on the determination
of total number of Leydig cells, Leydig cell clusters and seminiferous tubules in
the entire histological section of each biopsy and the calculation of the following
indices: mean Leydig cells per seminiferous tubule, mean Leydig cell clusters
per seminiferous tubule and mean Leydig cells per cluster. A significant positive
correlation between Leydig cells per tubule and Leydig cell clusters per tubule
was demonstrated. The results of indices curve showed shifted all the curves to
the righ

This study was aimed to understand the chronic pathological change which is produced after potassium nitrate intake

Incidence of bacterial and fungal contaminants in imported chicken femurs was
determined and compared with standard microbiological limits. A total of (12) Kg
of imported chicken femurs were randomly collected at two batches from (6) areas
in Baghdad city. Total aerobic bacterial count, coli form count and Staphylococcus
aureus count were used as an indicator for bacterial contamination, in addition to
yeast and mould count as an indicator for fungal contamination.
Data revealed that skins of imported chicken femurs produced high level of
contamination, in which most of the bacterial counts were near the maximum
standard limit as well as contamination with fungi, whereas the level of
contamination in the meat o

The study was conducted to investigate the role of supplementing the diet of
broiler chicken with Black seed (Nigella sativa Linn) broiler chicken in the
immune response of the bird .The study has also investigated the level of some
serum proteins and the activity of amino group transmitting enzymes. The Black
seeds have been ground and supplemented in the diet of the chickens at 2%
inclusion rate .A total of 80 Faobro broiler chicks were divided equally into 4
groups.
Group 1: given Black seed supplemented diet and vaccinated at 8 ,16 and 26 days
of age with one dose of live Newcastle (ND) vaccine in the crop and injected 0.2
ml oil adjuvant ND vaccine subcutaneously.
Group 2: given Black seed supplemented

(Pterophyllum scalare) and brood Algae eater (Hypostomus plecostomus) in
Iraq. The infected fish suffered from mucus hypersecretion large hyperemic
areas on the skin, and slight shedding of the scales. The incidence percentage of
infection was 100 %. Rising water temperature was up to 29 – 30cْ for one time

Baghdad Province, their ages ranged from 3-6 years.
They were divided randomly in to 4 groups . Group one included (27 buffalo)
treated with 15 mg of PGF2α ( Prosolven )R IM, The 2nd group (32 buffalo)
treated with 15 mg of PGF2α and 15 mg estradiol benzoate IM . The 3rd group

     This study aimed to investigate the immune responses (Cellular and humoral) to Klebsiella pneumoniae and Eimeria tenella by using Delayed Type Hypersensitivity Test (Skin Test) and Tube Agglutination Test in sixteen local breed rabbits. Animals were divided into four equal groups; First group was immunized subcutaneously with 1 ml (1000 µg/ml) of sonicated Eimeria tenella oocysts –SETO-ET), second group was immunized subcutaneously with 1 ml (1000 µg/ml) of sonicated Whole Cells Klebsiella pneumoniae antigen –SKWC-KP), third group was immunized subcutaneously with 1 ml (500 µg/ml of sonicated Eimeria tenella –SETO-ET and 500 µg/ml SKWC-KP).

This field investigation has been coducted on 5l animals from different areas in baghdad

The investigation on Heat-Intolerance Syndrome following foot and mouth disease (FMD) infection in cattle in ThiQar–Iraq, used 3ABC FMD ELISA kit, and Radio- immunoassay (RIA) to detect the cortisol level. From 105 there were 65(62%) infected cattle with FMD, which was high at 5- less 8 years old, while the cortrisol level showed three levels; normal (13-21 nmol⁄L), high and low levels were; 6(5.6%), 44(42%) and 55(52%) subsequently. More over the combined result of ELISA and RIA had divided cattle into six groups. First group of 40(38%) cattle infected with FMD and had low level of cortisol, this group containing 21(20%) with clinical signs of heat intolerance. Second group contain 22(21%) FMD infected cattle with high level of cort
