This study aimed to investigate the Ameliorative effect of ethanolic extracted of silymarin from Silybum marianum seeds and to compare it’s with the commercial silymarin extract(legalon) against oral dosing of Nickel chloride effects on sperms concentration, motility ,viability, sperm abnormality and male fertility and gonadal hormones .Twenty adult male rabbits aged 5 to 6 month and weighted 1.250-1.500 kg divided into four equal groups,1 st group served as control group received 1 ml of normal saline (NaCl 0.9%),2 nd group received (1mg/100g B.W )NiCl2 orally, 3 rd group received same dose of NiCl2 plus (0.1mg/100g B.W) silymarin extract, the fourth group received same dose of NiCl2 plus (0.1mg/100g B.W) legalon for 35 days, Results showed negative effects of NiCl2 which caused significant(p≤0.05) decrease in sperm concentration ,viability, motility and fertility while sperm abnormality was significantly increase, also NiCl2 caused significant (p≤0.05) decrease in serum progesterone, estradiol and testosterone. while silymarin extract and legalon adverse the negative effects of NiCl2 and causing ameliorative effects on all the studied parameters .

This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of ethanolic extract of Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (fenugreek) seeds on blood glucose, total serum cholesterol and total serum protein in normal and alloxan induced diabetic rabbits. Twenty-four mature male rabbits (local breed) were randomly divided into four groups of equal number: (Control negative group (normal rabbits received 2 ml normal saline). Normal animals group treated orally with (200 mg /kg b.w.) alcoholic extract of fenugreek daily. Diabetic positive control group (induced diabetic rabbits received 2 ml normal saline). Diabetic group treated orally with (200 mg /kg b.w.) alcoholic extract of fenugreek daily. All group were deranched for six weeks. Diabetes was induced experimentally by single intravenous injection of alloxan monohydrate (100 mg/ kg b.w.).Estimation of blood glucose, total cholesterol and total protein was carried out weekly for all groups of the experiment. The results showed that alcoholic extract of T. foenum-graecum L. caused Significant decrease (P

The study were conducted on 31 local female buffaloes breeds ,In basrah –Iraq ,during the period from 2010 – 2013 , 6 – 15 years old, among these 21 local femalebuffaloes breeds show signs of recurrent tympany one to two months after parturition,and 10 clinically healthy local female buffaloes breeds were served as controls ,moreover living status and kind of forage was archived before and after parturition ,nevertheless almost cases were not respond to the classical treatment when it given by theowners. Results of ruminal histopathological examination after rumenatomy indicatedrumenitis , ruminal adhesions and keratosis of rumeinal wall . It have been concluded thatchanging to holly concentrated food in late stage of the pregnancy might considered asthe important cause of frothy tympany.

Condensation of 6-methoxy benzothiazol-2-amine with 2-hydroxy- naphthaldehyde gave newSchiff-base derivative in good yield. The metal complex of Co(II) have been synthesized withSchiff base of benzothiazol derivative. Spectroscopic study such as, two dimensional NMR ofnew compound have been obtained by using nuclear magnatic resonance 600 MHz.Computational study of all compounds was calculated using Gaussian 09 program package. Thesynthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcusaureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Klebsiella pneumonia. Additionally, the compoundswere tested for antifungal activity against Candida albicans, Candida tropica, Aspergillus multiand Aspergillus niger. Cobalt complex compound exhibited more activity as antifungal thanbenzothiazole derivative.
