This study aimed to evaluate the ability of antioxidants (curcumin and lipoic acid) to ameliorate the hazardous effects of aflatoxins in broiler chickens in terms of performance, liver and kidney functions, and histopathological structures as well as compare them with the effect of a mycotoxin adsorbent (Agrimos®), a specific combination of mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) and ß-glucans extracted from the yeast cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A total of 120 broilers were used and divided into 5 equal groups (n=24), each group subdivided into 2 replicates (12 birds/replicate). control negative (G1) received the basal diet, control positive (G2) basal diet+ 100µg AFB1/kg diet; Curcumin treated group (G3) received control Positive + 1 g Curcumin /kg diet ; Lipoic acid treated group (G4) received control Positive + 300 mg Lipoic acid /kg diet; Agrimos treated group (G5) received control Positive + 1 g Agrimos /kg diet. All treatments were administered from 1-30 days of age. By the end of the experiment, antioxidants (curcumin and lipoic acid) ameliorated the harmful effects of aflatoxin on performance, histopathology of target organs and serum biochemical parameters in broilers as the same degree of improvement induced by Agrimos® (mycotoxin binders).

Ticks harbor the largest diversity of microorganisms, ranging from viruses, prokaryotes, and eukaryotes. Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks are the most common ticks worldwide. Although dogs are the main host of this tick species, it has been reported that it also infests humans in various parts of the world. This study aimed to examine some bacteria ( Coxiella burnetii , Mycoplasma haemocanis, Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum, Wolbachia) in Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks sampled from dogs. In this study, 350 tick samples collected from 85 dogs in Siirt province were determined to be Rhipicephalus sanguineus ticks. Coxiella DNA was detected in 3 (0.85%) out of 350 ticks using Nested PCR (687 base pairs). None of the samples were found to contain Mycoplasma haemocanis , Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum, and Wolbachia DNA. A partial sequence of the IS 1111 gene region was registered in GenBank with OM472143 accession numbers. Considering the zoonotic nature of the Q disease, it is very important for dog owners and related institutions to periodically spray animals against ticks, and to take any other necessary precautions. More samples are needed to determine the Mhc, CMhp, and Wolbachia prevalence.
蜱是微生物种类最多的地方，包括病毒、原核生物和真核生物。血蜱是世界上最常见的蜱。虽然狗是这种蜱虫的主要宿主，但据报道，在世界各地，它也会感染人类。本研究旨在检测犬血根头蜱中某些细菌(伯纳氏杆菌、血支原体、血疟原虫、沃尔巴克氏体)。本研究从锡尔特省85只狗身上采集350份蜱虫样本，确定为血根头蜱。采用巢式PCR(巢式PCR)方法，在350只蜱中检出Coxiella DNA 3只(0.85%)，共687个碱基对。所有样本均未发现含有血支原体、血疟原虫支原体和沃尔巴克氏体DNA。IS 1111基因区域的部分序列已在GenBank中注册，登录号为OM472143。考虑到Q病的人畜共患性，对于狗主人和相关机构来说，定期给动物喷洒蜱虫，并采取任何其他必要的预防措施是非常重要的。需要更多的样本来确定Mhc、CMhp和沃尔巴克氏体的流行情况。

This study aims to examine the effects of magnetic water on behaviour, performance and some physiological parameters of Nile tilapia fish and the physicochemical properties of water. Forty-eight Nile Tilapia fish with 30.95±1.75g in weight were reared under normoxia conditions and classified into two groups (n=12/aquarium, 2 replicates). Group 1: fish raised in non-magnetized water (control). Group 2: fish raised in magnetic water using a magnetic field, 18000 Gauss (MW). Fish performance, behavioural and physiological responses were examined as well as water quality parameters of the fish aquarium were measured. At the end of the experiment, fish (n=6/aquarium, 2 replicates) of two groups were exposed to 8 hours of hypoxia. Fish behaviour was recorded and water quality parameters of the fish aquarium were measured. Results revealed that the body weight and body weight gain of fish were significantly (p<0.05) increased, however, feed conversion ratio was decreased for fish reared under the use of water magnetization. Magnetic water fish showed high comfort behavioural activities with low surfacing and eliminative behaviours. Water magnetization improved significantly the dissolved oxygen, ammonia, and turbidity of the fish aquarium. Magnetic water fish showed high total protein and globulin with a lower plasma glutathione reductase (GSH). Fish of magnetic water showed a significant increase in resting and a decrease in surfacing, chasing, and biting with lower plasma cortisol when exposed to hypoxia condition. The dissolved oxygen of magnetic water was significantly more than the dissolved oxygen of normal water after hypoxia exposure. These findings suggest that using magnetic water has significant performance and behaviour benefits, as well as reduced hypoxia stress effects in Nile tilapia fish.

Coliforms generally are pointer to possible fecal contamination and reflect the hygienic standards of cheese processing. To determine the chemical and microbiological quality of some traditional Egyptian white soft cheese, a total of 200 samples represented by Tallaga, Feta, Baramili and Istamboli (50 samples each) were collected randomly from supermarkets, dairy shops and street-vendors in Giza Governorate, Egypt. Chemically; the averages of pH value and NaCl% in the examined cheese were 6.354, 3.732%; 5.018, 7.0%; 3.441, 6.702% and 4.465, 5.94% for Tallaga, Feta, Baramili and Istamboli cheese, respectively. Microbiologically; Coliforms, faecal Coliforms and Escherichia coli (E.coli) bacteria were detected in 86, 76 and 60% of Tallaga cheese, 64, 54 and 32% of Feta cheese, 88, 68 and 50% of Baramili cheese and 78, 64 and 54% of Istamboli cheese, respectively. The average Coliforms count was 1.3x10 ⁴ , 1.2x10³, 6.5x10³ and 3.6x10³ cfu/g, while, the fecal Coliforms average values were 2.1×10³, 3.1×10², 1.2×10³ and 6.3×10² cfu/g and E.coli average was 2.7x10², 1.8x10², 2.9x10² and 1.2x10² cfu/g for the examined samples, respectively. Serological identifications of the isolated E.coli revealed that 14, 6, 12 and 8% out of all examined cheese samples were pathogenic. The most relevant detected serotypes in cheese were related to enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) and enterotoxigenic (ETEC) strains. Also, enteroinvasive (EIEC) and enteropathogenic (EPEC) related serotypes have been detected in some examined cheese samples. The Coliforms content and incidence of different pathogenic E.coli serotypes reflect the poor hygienic conditions of manufacturing and absence of microbial load elimination. It could be concluded from the obtained results that there is a lack of a standardized method for production and keeping quality of white soft cheese. So, it's suggested to apply strict hygienic measures during all stages of white soft cheese production.

The research was conducted on /145/ Arabian horses, that suffered from abdominal visceral pain (colic), in Syria from the Equestrian clubs and Private stables in the governorates of Homs, Hama, and Damascus country-side, for the period of October 2019 till the end of March 2022. The horses were subjected to a dry-needling and an aqua-acupuncture technique through the acupoints map for /30/ minutes session. The cases were classified according to the colic type; spasmodic colic, flatulent colic, impactive colic, obstructive colic, and colic with displacements of intestine. This was done to record the practical response of acupuncture for treating colic in Arabian horses. The results of this study showed the efficiency of acupuncture sessions in treating colic of Arabian horses, and the benefit of sharing acupuncture with the traditional method of treating colic. The last procedure increases recovery rates, and speed up recovery in comparison with treating in each method alone.

Toxocara vitulorum is a pathogenic gastrointestinal nematode found in cattle and buffaloes all over the world, especially in tropical and subtropical regions with humid climates. Buffalo farming is a sector whose value has increased in recent years in Turkey and is intensively performed to obtain various products such as milk, cream, meat, and horns. This study aims to determine the prevalence of T. vitulorum in Anatolian Water Buffaloes in Diyarbakır. Fresh stool samples from animals were placed in individual stool containers. The sex and age of the animal were recorded for each sample collected. The samples were evaluated under the light microscope after the application of the Fulleborn saturated salt solution method and under Scanning Electron Microscope. Positivity was detected in 5 (3.01%) of the 166 samples. Regarding prevalence by age groups, T. vitulorum was detected in 10% of the 0-6 month group, 4.17% of the 6-12 month group, and 0.89% of the older than 12 months group. The prevalence by sex was determined as 3.85% for females and as 1.61% for males. To determine the epidemiology of the disease in the region, it was concluded that larger herds should be studied and serological and molecular methods should be used to confirm and support the findings of microscopic methods.

This research aimed to evaluate the physical and chemical properties of cooking butter and hydrogenated oils sold in Assiut Governorate, in which 70 samples (35 of each type) were collected from different localities in Assiut Governorate in the period from November 2021 to April 2022, and a number of tests were conducted to find out the physicochemical evaluation, which included pH, moisture%, free fatty acids%, acid value, peroxide value, p -ansidine value and total oxidation, then the obtained results were compared with the permissible limits of the Egyptian Standard specifications. The average results for cooking butter and hydrogenated oil samples were 6.02 and 5.45 for pH, respectively, 24.16 and 0.33% for moisture%, respectively, 1.86 and 0.4% for free fatty acids%, respectively, 2.63 and 0.57 for acid value, respectively, 2.18 and 1.83 for peroxide value, respectively, 2.23 and 1.98 for p - ansidine value, respectively, and 6.59 and 5.61 for total oxidation respectively; and when compared with the Egyptian Standards, it was found that 97.14 and 34.29% of the cooking butter and hydrogenated oil samples, respectively, were above the permissible limits for moisture%. Also, 97.14% of the cooking butter samples were above the permissible limits for peroxide value, as well as, all the cooking butter samples exceeded the permissible limit for free fatty acids%, but 28.57% of the hydrogenated oil samples exceeded the permissible limit for acid value.
