The was conducted on 15 dogs of either sex and of different breed presented at my clinic (canine clinic* during a period of sex months. Their ages were ranging between 2-3 years. The dogs showing unilateral or bilateral swollen ear that is Haematoma. The surgical treatment was done by making a longitudinal incision on in entire length of haematoma. After draining the blood or serum, cleaning the debris. Haematoma pocket flushed with saline or week tincture iodine. Horizontal interrupted materess suture placed parallel to the incision, the pinna was dressed with antiseptic then bandaged with compression bandage to keeping the ear in erect position. The suture removed after 9-10 days post operation. Bandaging will continue to 6 more days till the operated ear return to its normal condition.

Three hundred milk product samples were collected from different locations of Basrah province. By using enrichment broth technique and Brucella selective medium nine isolates (8 from soft cheese and one from cream) where isolated. No Brucella strain was isolated from ice-cream. The species and biotypes of these isolates were determined and it was found that 4 isolates of Brucella abortus biotype 4 and 5 isolates of B. melitensis biotype 2. Antibiotic sensitivity test showed that all isolates were sensitive to streptomycin, gentamycin, kanamycin, rifampicin, trimethoprim, trimethoprim with sulfamethoxazole and tetracycline, some strains showed resistance to doxycyclin, cephalexin, ampicillin and erythromycin. Brucella isolates also showed growth in different range of temperature and pH.

A study on a hundred samples of lamb meat and offal were done for a year. The bacterial microflora of lamb meat and offal from lamb 1-2 year old were isolated. The prevalence of microorganisms identified in this study was Staphylococci, Corynebacterium, Streptococci, Micrococcus, Salmonella, Escherichia coli and Yeast. The positive isolates were high in spring and early summer while the positive isolates were low in autumn and early winter. Staphylococci and Salmonella were predominant over all positive microorganisms. Lymph nodes and kidneys yielded more numbers of Salmonella and Staphylococci than meat, liver and spleen. Fifteen Salmonella typhimurium (28%) out of 53 as a total number of Salmonella serotypes were identified. Out of eight was the total number of Staphylococci six (40%) of them were coagulase positive. This study covers the distribution of indigenous microflora of meat, and offal.

In this study, two experiments had been done: Experiment (1), was designed to determine the acute toxicity of alcoholic extract of coconut ( Cocos nucifera ) fruit to the laboratory mice. Eight groups (6 mice each) of male albino mice were used in this experiment. The first group was drenched (1ml) physiological saline (as control group), while the other seven groups were given orally ascending doses (0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 g/kg B.W.) respectively. After (24hr), all groups of mice were inspected for the presence of dead mice. The results of this experiment showed no mortality in all groups of mice and the extract is not toxic. Experiment (2), this study was designed to investigate the effect of alcoholic extract of coconut fruit on the efficacy of reproductive system of male mice. For this purpose, (24) mature male mice were allocated equally and randomly into three groups. Group (1) was given physiological saline and was considered as control group. Group (2) and group (3) were given 125mg/kgB.W./day and 200 mg/kg B.W. /day of alcoholic extract of coconut fruit respectively. All mice in the three groups received orally the appropriate treatment for 15 days. Post treatment, two criteria were chosen as indicators for the efficacy of the extract. The first one was relative testicular weight to body weight. The other one was the concentration of sperm in caudal part of epidydemis. The results of this experiment revealed that there was a significant (P

The effect of mobile microwave on antibiotic sensitivity of Staphylococcus ureus was estimated. One hundered samples of ear swab were collected from mobile phone users. They were subjected for S. aureus isolated and identification by Staph API- 20 enzymes. Forty three of Staph. strains were selected as identical biochemical test. They were ordered into eight groups according to calling times of mobile users , ranged from zero (used as control) to three hundred and six hours of calling time. Seventeen different antibiotic discs sensitivity were measured for S. aureus. Microwave of mobile phone showed significant effect (P

Investigation of antibacterial activity of ethanolic , methanolic and ginger oil were carried out in this study on Gram positive and Gram negative pathogenic bacteria . The study exhibited these bacteria have variable susceptibities against these extracts and depend on type of bacteria . The notes was shown the highest effect and wide diameter of growth inhibition zone against Escherichia coli .

Two isolates of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeroginosa of bacteria were exposed to different concentrations ( 5 , 10 or 25 mg /l )of heavy metals ions ( Silver Ag2+ , Cobalt Co2+ or Lead Pb2+) for different exposure periods ( 0 , 1, 2, 24 and 48 hrs.) .The results showed that the inhibitory effect of these metals on the growth of the two isolates were in the following sequences :- Pb < Co < Ag Some of these metals caused an elongation of lag phase in liquid medium for these isolates . Whene antibiotic discs ( chloramphenicol 30 mcg , clindamycin 2 mcg , erythromycin 15 mcg , gentamycin 10 mcg ,tetracyclin 30 mcg and vancomycin 30 mcg ) were added to solid medium which was previously supplemented with the above heavy metals ions , a synergestics effect was observed between antibiotics and heavy metals ions ( specially silver ions at 25 mg/ l )to increase the inhibition zone significantly ( P < 0.01 ) for both isolates .

The clinical and histopathological the effect of chitosan applied locally on the healing of experimentally induced teat fistula in goats. Sixteen local breed goats have been used, aged range between (1.2-2) years with body weight (30+-5) kg. Animals were randomly allotted into two equal groups. An artificial teat fistula of one cm.length was done for all animals under the effect of local analgesia and deep sedation. The first group, fistula was treated with chitosan 0.5gm and then closed by suture; while the second group (control one), fistula was closed routinely "via suture without any addition. After daily clinical follow-up, mild local reaction include local redness and swelling of the operative site and systemic mild hyperthermia, decrease ruminal contraction, increase respiratory rate. Histopathological examinations were performed on all animals. Eight animals used for each group :( 2 for each period). Sections were stained with hematoxylin –eosin stain. Results of Histopathological examination in treated group reflected the presence of large numbers of neutrophils In the first three days postoperatively , granulation tissue were seen in the sixty days which converted to cellular connective tissue in the ninth day with congested blood vessels .in addition there are lymphocytic aggregations ,arrangement of collagen fibers and formation of new epidermis during the 12th .days. In conclusion we can say that chitosan play an important role in enhancing repair of teat fistula.

Fenugreek has a long history of medical uses in Chinese medicine and Kurdish area .The antibacterial activity of aqueous and some organic compounds extracts of stems, leaves, seeds and roots of fenugreek were tested against three Gram-negative and one Gram-posative bacteria by the well diffusion and colony account methods. The microorganisms used were Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella spp. All extracts of the plant did not exhibit any inhibitory activity against any of the microorganisms tested by each well diffusion and colony account technique.

ABSTRAT The aim of this study is an evaluation of mastectomy for removal of mammary glands tumors of bitches referring to histopathological aspect. During a period of three years extending from March 2007 till March 2010, seventeen bitches were presented to department of surgery-college of veterinary medicine-Baghdad, suffering from mammary glands tumors were treated surgically. Diagnosis of the cases was based on case history, clinical signs, in addition several photographs were taken to denote if there was metastases of the tumor to other organ or not. The definitive diagnosis was confirmed via histopathological examination of tumors biopsies. The surgical operations were done under the effect of general anesthesia represented by a combination of Ketamine–Xylazine preceding by atropine sulfate. All drugs injected I.M. Following surgery secondary health problems were happened in seven animals out of (17 treated cases). Histopathological examination of tumor biopsies obtained from affected glands revealed that the tumor was adenocarcinoma (malignant type). Finally we can concluded that surgery is an effective method to cure the mammary glands tumors in spite of secondary complications in some bitches, which all responds to treatment with the exception of the dead bitch.
