Visceral leishmaniasis has been recognized as an important public health problem in Iraq for the last 50 years, particularly in middle and southern governorates. This study was conducted to evaluate the national control program in reducing the number of Kala-azar cases in Diyala governorate (which is a known endemic focus in Iraq), for the years 2002 and 2003. Data were collected from the communicable diseases control unit in Diyala governorate, where all cases of leishmaniasis are recorded on monthly bases. Analysis of data at district level for the years 2002 and 2002 regarding the number of Kala-azar cases and application of active control measures was carried out. The results of this study revealed that Kala-azar incidence rates in Diyala governorate for the years2002 and 2003 were 111.9 and 63.3 per 100000 in children less than five years, respectively .The number of Kala-azar cases recorded for the year 2003 was 154 cases ,which constitute 6.04% of the total cases in Iraq; this included 51 cases (33.1%)from areas where active control measures (spraying and rodents control campaign)were applied previously ,and 103 cases (66.9%)from areas where no such control measures were applied. The ratio of reported cases from areas without to areas with active control programs was higher than 1:1 in Diyala governorate at the districts

In the present work marine sediment samples were collected from Thengapattanam estuary on the south west coast of India for the isolation and screening of bacteria for biocidal potency. The density of the bacterial load in the sediment samples was ranged from 5.43x10 to 2.8x10 CFU/g. Screening of bacterial isolates for antagonistic activity revealed that the isolate MS21 had the highest zone of clearance among against all the 10 plant fungal pathogens tested. Among 10 fungal pathogens, the highest antagonistic activity was observed against Gleosporium gleosporioide (36mm) and the lowest against Colletotrichum lamella (11mm). The potential isolate was identified as Bacillus subtilis using biochemical methods and it was designated as Bacillus subtilis MS21. Effect of various physicochemical parameters on growth of B. subtilis MS21 showed that 36 hrs of incubation period, 150 rpm agitation, pH8.0, temperature-35C, salinity-1.0%, 2% sucrose as carbon source and 1% beef extract as nitrogen source were found to be the ideal conditions for maximum growth. Maximum growth of 1.92 OD was observed in mass scale culture with the optimized ideal conditions in the shake flask.

The study was conducted in Boloso Sore Woreda Wolaita Zone, Southern Ethiopia to assess local chicken management and marketing system. A stratified random sampling technique was used to stratify the agro-ecological zones to select 6, 20 and 3 from (high lands (“Dega”), mid altitude (“Woyna dega”) and lowland (“Kola”) respectively. Fifteen households from each kebeles were selected purposively based on the intensity and experience of poultry production. The result of the study indicated that about 85.92 and 14.08% of the respondents were males and females headed respectively and about 82% were married. The average chicken holding per household was 3.79 heads. The chickens were kept for subsistence (home consumption), income generation and both for subsistence and income generation according to 19.25, 25.25 and 55.5% of the respondents respectively. Furthermore, the majorities (79.5%) of the respondents were kept their chickens in free scavenging system and majority did not supplement their birds before they go for scavenging. The common supplements used in chicken feeding were maize, wheat, kitchen wastes according the rank obtained from the respondents. Majority (79.5%) of the respondents provide water to their chicken free of choice. However, the respondents’ ranked shortage of feed was the first constraints challenging poultry production. Similarly, prevalence of disease, predators, lack of capital and veterinary service are the major constraints affecting their chicken production and productivity in the order of rank. Therefore, improved management technologies to overcome shortage of feed and disease control should be introduced in order to increase the productivity of the local chicken.

Food quality and safety standards that are critically important both for developed and developing economies, where the consumers’ safety is among the primary issues to be considered in food supply chain management. After the rapid development of many economies, quality standards have focused on consumers’ demand for safe food and beverage. So, therefor, food quality and safety protection was emerged with the objectives of safeguarding consumers from both economic and health risks and to ensure the functioning of food markets in an orderly manner by prohibiting the production and sale of unsafe food products and fraudulent acts committed on foods. Ensuring the food quality and safety of domestically produced, exported and imported food and food products constitutes one of the areas of food quality and safety protection. This is with an assumption that maintaining the quality of these foods is essential to protect public health, to satisfy the expectation of consumers, and to enhance foreign earnings and to maintain the confidence of food trading partners. Hence, governments assure the quality and safety of domestically produced, imported and exported food and food products. It has been noted that foods related laws in Ethiopia also do not meet what the supplying of safe and of good quality food so demands. Everyone involved in food quality assurance system from farmer to the consumer is expected to shares in the responsibilities of ensuring the supply of good quality and safe food to the domestic consumers and foreign markets. According to the law, farmers and processing companies have the greatest responsibility for food safety assurance. In addition, they need to prove that they have applied diligence and traceability practices. The aim of this paper is to review the general concepts of standards related to foods and foods products by compare Ethiopian standards with international standards.

In Siddha system of traditional medicine minerals and animal products are used as main drugs to treat various dreadful diseases. Standardization of Siddha preparations is of utmost important task in establishing the active components of the drug responsible for its biological activity. WHO has emphasized the need to ensure quality control of Indian Medicines including Siddha formulations by using modern techniques and by applying suitable parameters and standards. Siddha practitioners use several metallic preparations to treat diseases such as cancer, urolithiasis, kidney disorders and chronic liver diseases. One such novel drug is Manosilai comprises of arsenic and Sulphur as major components. The main aim of the present study is to purify the Manosilai and to analyses the same with modern sophisticated analytical instrumentation techniques. ICPOES results of the sample manosilai before and after purification reveals the presence of Mercury, Lead, Arsenic and Cadmium along with other trace elements. FT-IR analysis report of both unpurified and purified formulation confirm the presence of biologically significant functional group with characteristic IR absorption frequencies. Further the XRD patter of samples justifies the presence of arsenic sulfide and mercury being the major component of the manosilai. SEM analysis of the sample signifies that the mean particle size of the formulation ranges from 11.21 to 19.37 μm. Hence from the results of the present investigation it was clear that the manosilai purified in accordance with traditional siddha system confirms the stability and complies with the genuinity and standards as per AYUSH guidelines.

This research was studied to assess the production and management system of Rhode Island Red chickens in Halaba special Woreda, southern Ethiopia. For the study 7 Kebeles were selected purposively based on the number and intensity of Rhode Island Red poultry production. Fifteen respondents were selected from each Kebeles purposively based on the experience of RIR poultry production. Thus, a total of 105 respondents were included in the study. The research used both primary & secondary data. The required primary data was gathered using interview, observation while the secondary data used were obtained from written document. The collected data was analyzed by using descriptive statistics. About 78.0% of the respondents were male headed while 22.0% were female headed. From the interviewed respondent about 31.4% completed primary educations. In the study area, chicken production and management system were mainly reared based on cereal crops and household wastes. About 55.2% of the respondents used semi-extensive methods of management system. With regard to flock composition about 42.8% of the Rhode Island Red was layers. The majority (60%) of the respondents used cereal crops, such as wheat, corn, sorghum and etc as a main feed source for their poultry. About 51.4% of respondents supply feed for RIR poultry in addition to scavenging twice per-a-day early on the morning and late in the evening. Majority of the respondents (80%) used non-separated housing system, which they live together with human and livestock. In the study area about 31.4% indicated that disease was the main constraints of poultry production. The study also recommended that in order to increase the production of RIR in the study area improving the management of RIR poultry breed should be of primary practice. Moreover, improvements of feeding, housing, and the overall managements of poultry, vaccinating them before disease and treating them is highly needed to increase for poultry production.
