ABSTRACT This study investigated the influence of dietary supplementation of Solanum aethiopicum and Solanecio biafrae leaves, which have nutraceutical properties, on stress response, cytokine expression, antioxidant status, blood chemistry, abdominal fat and meat quality in broilers reared in a hot, dry environment. 2. One day old, Ross 308 chicks (n = 350) were randomly allotted to basal diets containing either no supplement (D1); 2.5 g/kg Solanum aethiopicum leaf (SAL; D2); 5 g/kg SAL (D...
ABSTRACT This study was aimed to extract milk-clotting enzyme from sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seeds and to determine its potentiality for manufacturing white soft cheese from cows and goats milk during storage. The parameters evaluated included: coagulation time, yield, physicochemical composition, microbiological analyses and sensory characteristics of the manufactured cheese. The sunflower seeds' were blended and extracted using two types of buffers, Na acetate buffer and 5% NaCl aceta...
ABSTRACT This research was conducted to study the effect of different stages of the lactation period on physicochemical properties of three species, dromedary camel, saanen goat and cow milk during different lactation stages. The lactation period of each species was divided into three stages after calving, early, mid and late stages. Milk samples for each species were collected at different intervals during each stage and thus covering the whole lactation period. The samples were then subje...

Abstract The study was conducted in the camel research center (CRC)( Shambat )to compare the effect of two hormonal protocols in ovulation induction in dromedary she- camel ( Camelus dromedarius ) during non breeding season. Number of eleven she – camels with varying age (6 – 17 years) and the average body weight from (250 – 350 kg ) and one male used for mating were selected for this experiment. The experimental animals were divided into three groups : group (A) control group ( N =3), ...
ABSTRACT: Chick production from developing embryo is a profitable business in Nigeria due to the high demand of protein. The constant failure of electricity supply in Nigeria obstructs operation of incubator and reduce its performance. This study developed solar powered poultry egg incubator. The dimension of the designed incubator was 610mm×607mm×1649mm with capacity of 150eggs. From the design calculation the sizes of the solar panel, charge controller, batteries and inverters requir...
Here is a Business Plan on Pig Fattening. The aim of the project is to raise 150 weaned piglets from 8 to 10 weeks of age to 16 to 18 weeks. The animals will be raised on one type of house and be sold after attaining a live weight of 25kg, with an average carcass weight of 20kg.

Abstract This study was conducted to determine the effect of the milking system on the bacterial count in raw milk. This experiment was conducted on different milk samples taken from two different Aleppo systems. .The results showed significant differences (0.05) in the bacterial count of manual and automatic milking samples for bacterial types Bacteria (bacillus, staphylococcus, salmonella, E.coli , Streptococcus and micrococcus) (25, 16,7,25,0,8,0,25,16,7,16,8) respectively, where the resu...
Abstract: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of polluted groundwater , soil, fodder with heavy metals and trace elements such as (Chromium (Cr), Nickel (Ni), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), Lead (Pb) and Manganese(Mn) in safety of cattle, sheep, goat and camel meat raised at Tambol area. Samples of groundwater, soil, fodder, animals meat tissues, vital organs ( liver, kidney and heart ) and blood serum were randomly collected to detect heavy metals traces by using flame atomic absorption ...
Abstract This study was conducted in order to determine and investigate the bacterial contamination of commercial poultry feeds marketed in Khartoum state. A Total of (45) samples of three different commercial poultry feed namely, pre starter for chicks, broiler finisher and layer finisher obtained from five localities in Khartoum state namely ( Sharg Alneel , Khartoum , Bahri , Omdurman and Jabel Awliaa ) were examined for their microbiological quality using microbiological and analytical m...
ABSTRACT The study was conducted to determine the composition and Physicochemical Characteristics of Damascus (Shami) Cyprus goats in different lactation periods in Sudanese Environment, The data was collected from the Zakat farm in Elrodwan complex located in Omdurman in Khartoum state Which is located in the semi arid zone. The farm was established as breeding farm Damascus (Shami) Cyprus goats. The goats were milked by hand twice a day (morning and evening). Milk samples were taken se...

Abstract The experiment was conducted to investigate effect of Pimpinellaanisum powder addition to broilers chick diets on the performance, serum chemistry and commercial cuts. Four experimental diets were designed A, B, C and D. A served as a control B, C, D was supplemented with Anise seed. At rate 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6% respectively. Eighty four broiler chicks 7 days old were randomly distributed in to four treatments, each treatment with three replicates and each replicates with 7 chic...
Abstract This study aims to investigate the phenotypic and genotypic characterization of Fuga cattle in North Kordufan. A set of detailed structured questionnaires were used to collect information from Fuga cattle owners (150) .The questionnaires were pre-tested to check clarity and appropriateness of the questions. Some of the informations collected during interviews were supported by observations on milk yield per day, milk yield per lactations ,lactation length , age at first calving...
