This study was aimed to evaluate the influence of months of the year on the quality of semen in Holstein bulls. A study carried out at artificial insemination centre/ Abou-Ghareeb/ western of Baghdad. A total of 160 ejaculates were collected from 15 bulls born in Iraq via the artificial vagina. The age of the bulls ranged between 4 to 5 years and the study period were December to March and September. The semen samples were diluted with Tris base extender. The semen was packed in a straw according to the program of artificial insemination centre. Semen characteristics (plasma membrane, acrosome, and DNA integrities) were evaluated. The results revealed a significant decrease (P≤0.01) in the plasma membrane and acrosome integrity in September as compared with December, January, February, and March. There was a significant decline (P≤0.05) in DNA integrity in September as compared with December, January, February, and March in fresh and frozen semen. In conclusion, the September month had a negative effect on the plasma membrane, acrosome, and DNA percentage in all bulls.

The study was carried out in the ruminant researches station / department of livestock research section / office of agricultural research in the district of Abu Ghraib / Baghdad to assess the effect of exogenous fibrolytic enzyme (EFE) (Safizym - France) in blood characters of local male kids. The experiment was conducted during the period from 21 May 2017 to 17 July 2017 (57) day. Eighteen males of domestic goats aged 4-5 months were used in this study. The animals were randomly assigned to three treatments (6 animals for each treatment) a control treatment was fed on basal ration without enzyme (Tc), a treated groups were supplemented with the EFE of 500 g / ton of concentrate feed (T1) and a treatment with the EFE of 1000 g / ton of concentrate feed (T2). The results showed no significant effect of the adding with EFE in the total protein, albumin and globulin, while there was an effect of the period of the weeks in the T1, where the superiority (P≤0.05) of the eighth week. The results showed a significant differences (P≤0.05) in the serum urea concentration. The second treatment decreased during the second and sixth weeks compared to the T1 and the control Tc. There was an effect of the period of the weeks within the same treatment, where all means in all treatments were reduced with progress the time of the experiment. The results showed no significant effect of the adding with EFE in both glucose and cholesterol. The means were within the normal range and the triglycerides were not affected but there were differences between the weeks within the treatment. Concentrations of HDL, LDL and VLDL were not affected by the addition of EFE, but significant differences (P≤0.05) were observed between the weeks within the treatments. The results showed that T2 treatment was superior during the zero time in the concentration of the ALP enzyme for T1 and Tc, and significant differences between the weeks within the treatments. T1 treatment (P≤0.05) exceeded T2 and Tc in the concentration of the ALT enzyme during the zero time and the fourth and sixth weeks with no effect for the period of the weeks within the same treatment. The treatment and period of the weeks did not affect the concentration of AST enzyme in the serum.

This study was conducted in one of the private sector fields in Anbar province - Hit city - Albasaer village (70 km west of the Ramadi city,), for the period from 28/6/2018 to 1/9/2018. Twenty one local female goats aged between 2-4 years and weighing between 24.5 to 36.5 kg were used, Which have previous one birth or more. All female goats were tested using ultrasound to make sure they were not pregnant before the experiment began. Females were randomly divided into three equal groups (7 goats in each group).Vaginal sponges (60 mg MAP) were injected into the three groups at the same time. The first group T1 was injected intramuscularly with the amino acid, arginine (US Nevada manufacturing) in the muscles at 200μmol.kg Five days before the sponge was pulled out until the 17 day after the sponge was pulled out, While the second group T2 was injected with amino acid (arginine) at 160 μmol.kg. Five days before the sponge was pulled until the 17th day after that. The third group T3 control group was injected with 5 ml Normal Saline intramuscularly of the animal. All animals were injected three times daily from the eighth day after the sponge was placed (five days before removing of the sponge) until 17 days after the removing of sponge. Where the total number of injection days was 22 days. Blood samples were taken from the jugular vein before injection of the arginine on day 7 and day 12 of the sponge placed either after the sponge pulled the blood samples were taken on the days 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 13, 18, respectively of the experiment After sponges removing. The objective of the study was to measure changes in the blood, biochemical parameters, during arginine treatment. The results of this study showed significant differences. T1 and T2 group were superior compared to control group in blood properties which include PCV in periods 2, 5, the number of white blood cells in periods 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, MID in periods 3, 9 and Lymphocytes in periods 4, 5, 6, 9, While the neutrophil cells the period of 3. In terms of biochemical properties, the results showed a significant differences, between the treatments of T1 and T2 were superior compared to control treatments in the total protein concentration in period 6, and the globulin in period 6. We conclude that the use of different doses of arginine can improve the health status of female goats.

The current study aimed to determine the effect of hormonal treatment with kisspeptin, GnRH and hCG on plasma testosterone concentration and semen characteristics in buck Cyprus goats during non-breeding season as compared with breeding season. This study was executed at the Ruminant Researches Station pertaining to the Directorate of Agricultural Researches, Ministry of Agriculture, Abu-Ghraib, Baghdad (latitude 33˚20' N) for the period from November 15th, 2012 to December 〖31〗^st 2013. A total of 20 buck Cyprus goats 2 years old and averages 55 kg body weight. During non-breeding season bucks were randomly divided into five equal groups (4 bucks / group). The first group (A1) was regarded as a control group, i.m injected with normal saline, whereas, the second (A2) and third (A3) groups were i.v injected with 4 and 8 µg / kg body weight of Kisspeptin-10 respectively. The fourth (A4) and fifth (A5) groups were i.m injected with hCG (250 IU / buck) and GnRH (20 µg / buck) respectively. Plasma testosterone concentrations were significantly (P≤ 0.01 and P≤ 0.05) increased at 20, 30, 40 and 50 min post-treatment in A5, A2 and A3 groups as compared with control A1. Mass motility and individual motility were significantly (P≤ 0.01) in A5, A4, A2 and A3 as compared with control during non-breeding season. In conclusion, our results show that Kisspeptin-10, GnRH and hCG can stimulate the quiescent hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis of bucks during non-breeding season by increasing plasma testosterone concentration post treatment that leads improving some semen characteristics during non-breeding season.

The aim of the study To see the effect of location, season and display time on the accumulation of some heavy metals (Lead, copper, zinc, cadmium and cobalt) in sheep and cattle liver. Liver samples were obtained from three districts in Anbar province (Ramadi, Hit and Baghdadi). This study began from January 2017 to November 2017 for all seasons (winter, spring, summer and autumn) Samples were taken from the liver immediately after slaughter for cattle and sheep at 8 am and taken at 4 pm for all areas of study. The results of the study were summarized in the quadratic overlap of the animal type, season, location and time as follows: The highest concentration of lead in liver (38.86 μg / g liver) was recorded in sheep for spring and evening in Ramadi. The lowest concentration was in sheep in Baghdadi for morning and winter (20.06 micro g / g liver). The highest concentration of copper in the liver (34.65 microgram / g liver) was recorded in cows in Ramadi for the winter season and evening time. The lowest concentration was in the sheep liver during the summer season for morning time in the city of al-Baghdadi (20.43 microgram / g liver). The highest concentration was in the liver (603.99 microgram / g liver) in the sheep for the autumn season and the evening time in the city of Ramadi. The lowest concentration was in the sheep in the city of Baghdadi for morning and summer (560.32 microgram / g liver). The highest concentration of cadmium in the liver (30.88 micro g / g liver) was in sheep in Ramadi for the autumn and evening season, and the lowest concentration was in beef in the summer season for morning time in al-Baghdadi city (9.66 μg / g liver). Cobalt was the highest concentration (1.34, 1.34 and 1.35 micro g / g liver) in cow and sheep liver, autumn, summer and evening time for Ramadi. While the lowest concentration of sheep and cattle liver for the city of Baghdadi for the winter season and morning time (0.64 and 0.63 microgram / g liver).

Proteins are essential constituents of all organisms; both egg white proteins and egg yolk are source of protein. The aim of this study was conducted to perform preliminary studies to analyses and compare egg white proteins and yolk proteins from different avian species (guineafowl, dwarf hens, local hen, Shami, turkey, duck, geese, partridge and quail) via or with SDS-PAGE (Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate–Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis ). 18 Fresh eggs of different poultry species (guineafowl, dwarf hens, local hen, Shami, turkey, duck, geese, partridge and quail) were collected from various farms in the Sulaimani province. Data on egg proteins were analyzed using Statistical Xlstate used for dendrogram construction and PCA. The main egg white proteins were Ovomicin, Ovotransferrin, Ovalbumin, Flavoprotein, α- chymotrypsinogen, and Trypsin inhibitor. The main lipoproteins were Apovitellenin VI, Apovitellenin Vb, Apovitellenin V, Apovitellenin IIIa, Apovitellenin III, Apovitellin 7, B-Livetin, Apovitellenin IIa, Apovitellenin II, and Apovitellenin I. All these lipoproteins were observed in the nine birds species. The egg white proteins and yolk lipoproteins for nine species were examined. It can be concluded the large differences were found in a mount of egg white proteins and yolk lipoproteins of the nine species of birds.
