Effect of extract of Allium sativium on some biochemical and immunological characters in Haberd broiler

Abstract

This study was conducted at poultry farm, department of animal production, Agriculture college, Al-Qadisya University to investigate the effect of Allium sativum on some biochemical and immunological character in Haberd broiler, which was fed by meal contained mycotoxin type Aflatoxin. Thus, four hundred broilers were divided into four treatments 0, 2, 4, 8g.l-1 garlic,  feed these four treatment were poisoned by 50 ppm Aflatoxins fungus. Concentration of glucose, total protein, cholesterol, triglyceride, AIV, NDV and IBV were detected. The result revealed that drinking extract garlic at rates of 4 and 8 g.l-1 resulted in significant increases (p<0.01) in terms of AIV, NDV and IBV, as compared to control. Highly significant decrease (p<0.01) in concentration of glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride were recorded, as compared to control.

The effect of using different ways to provide the Iraqi probiotic(IP) on some carcass characteristics of broiler chicks

Abstract

This study was conducted at a poultry farm of the Agriculture College, AL-Muthanna University to investigate the effect of using different ways to provide the Iraqi probiotic in some carcass characteristics. A total of 360 Ross 308 broiler chicks, one-day old were used and randomly allocated to six treatment, each was replicated three times (3 replicates per group; 25 chicks for each). These were T1(control group), T2(spraying Chicks with Iraqi probiotic at one day old), T3(Oral dosage of chicks with Iraqi probiotic at one day old), T4(injecting chicks with Iraqi probiotic in vent opening at one day old), T5(providing Iraqi probiotic with feed (1g/kg) from one day old to marketing age), and T6(providing Iraqi probiotic with drinking water (1g/L) from one day old to marketing age). Continous supplimentation of IP via drinking water or feed were significantly (P≤0.05) increased the dressing percentages and all primery carcass cuts, (breast,drum and thigh) percentages of broiler chicks. All Iraqi probiotics providing treatments gave significant higher results in all detected traits (P≤0.05), as compared control.

The effect of water salinity on biological nitrogen transformation in the soil

Abstract

Lab experiments were conducted at ascientific unit research in college of Agric. Colleg, Baghdad Univ. Soil was treated with mixture of following salts KCl ,MgCl2 , NaCl, CaCl2 to create four levels of salanity: 0.3 ,2.5 , 4.8 , 7.2 ds m-1, the treated soil samples were put in plastic cans (200gm), nitrogen fertilizer with two levels were added (as urea)(100kg N ha-1)(200N kg ha-1).The samples were incubated four weeks at 30*c. Soil samples were taken to determine NH4+ , NO3 , SAR and the number of nitrobacter and nitrosomanas bacteria. The results of the experiments showed asignificant increase in the amount of NH4+ in both treatment of tap water , the first level of nitrogen fertilizer after two weeks of incubation was 305.5 mg N kg-1 . while the amount of NH4+ decreased to 291.8 mg N kg-1 when the consentration of salinity in creased . Also there was adecline in the amount of NH4+ when the value of SAR increased and gave 281.5 mg N kg-1 soil , the elevation of salinity of the water caused reduction in the oxidation of NH4+ to NO3 which give 94.7mg N. the high salinity of water played an important role in SAR value which increased from 18 to 33.5 at 7.2 ds.m-1 , the results showed also was a clear decline in the the sailinty of water increased after four weeks of incubation number of nitrosomonas from 0.401 x 106cfu to 0.014×104 cfu . gm-1 when. we can canclude that nitrobacter bacteria more sensitive to salinity than the nitrosomonas.
