During the period from January 2014 to the end of July 2014, a total of 21 fishes belongingto two species of the family Ephippidae (Platax teira and P. orbicularis) were captured fromIraqi marine waters, northwest Arab Gulf. The study revealed the existence of one species ofmonogenean, Sprostoniella multitestis from gills of both fish species. The record of S.multitestis in the present study is considered as the first record in the Iraqi territorial waters ofthe Arab Gulf and both P. teira and P. orbicularis are new host records for this parasite in theArab Gulf.

The HSP70 protein considered as a molecular markers to resist various stressconditions, especially high temperatures. Therefore, the high level of gene expressionof hsp70 gene is one of the ways to resist stress conditions, which can vary dependingon the polymorphisms. The study aimed to determine the extent of the correlationbetween gene expression and polymorphisms to hsp70 gene. The study was conductedin the months: November , December , 2015, January 2016, as the winter season andthe months April , May and June, 2016, as the summer season.

The present study was designed to show the role of green Tio2 nanoparticles against toxicityof Echinococcus granulosus. The present study used 16 adult albino male rats that distributedrandomly to following groups (each group consist 5 rats); control group received ad libidium,second group injected with 2,5 X 103 of Echinococcus granulosus protoscolices third groupinjected with protoscolices and treated with 50mg/kg green Tio2 nanoparticles, fourth groupinjected with protoscolices and treated with 100mg/kg green Tio2 nanoparticles. The resultsshow high significant increased (P < 0.05) in levels of Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT),Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) in group injected withprotoscolices compared with control group. Oxidative stress factor in group injected withprotoscolices show significant increased (P < 0.05) in levels of MDA (malonedialdehyied) andsignificant decreased (P < 0.05) in levels of glutathione (GSH) and catalase compared withcontrol group. While, after used green Tio2 nanoparticles with Echinococcus granulosus, theresults showed non-significant changes (P < 0.05) in liver functions and MDA, GSH and catalasealso showed non-significant changes (P < 0.05) compared with control group. It was concludedthat green Tio2 nanoparticles has been potential role against toxicity of Echinococcus granulosusin male rats.

This paper was for Groundwater (GW) quality for drinking by gold-standard (GS) athigh-altitude (HA) area, Taif, KSA "VISION 2030 G", GW samples contained turbidity,resulted high in samples (6 and 10); (0.03 and 0.018). Public health (PH) were had declinedwithin GS. Electric conductivity (EC) were within the optimum value, total dissolved salts(TDS) were had lowest value. Total hardness (TH) were of more than (300–500) mg L−1,Chloride (Cl−) ranged from (18-1759) mg L−1 with 30% and 70% samples. Sulfate (SO42−)ranged from (33-2245) mg L−1 with 90% falling above GS, Nitrates (NO3−) ranged from (0–60) mg L−1 with 80% falling below GS. Bacterial types revealed both Gram-positive andnegative were not in samples (1, 2, 6 and 7), both Gram-positive and negative were presentin samples (5, 8 and 9). The arrangement of colony count were in samples (9, 1, 8, 6, 7 and5), that was ranged the colony from (550-15) / mL. The common bacteria were isolatedincluded Staphylococcus Species (Staph. Spp.), Micrococcus Spp, Escherichia coli (E. coli)and Klebsiella Spp. The conclusion were discharged from the results, that did not agree withGS to the community use. The most examined GW samples for drinking water (DW) did notagree with GS, bacterial quality did not accepted from GS, will affect PH. Therecommendation were directed to "MOH", to follow up GW for DW through GS at HAarea, so could using for human as DW without any harm and did'not affect PH.

Concentrations of seven heavy metals (Cadmium, Lead, Zinc, Nickel, Iron, Copper, and Manganese) in five canned fish samples found in the local market Basrah city, Iraq were determined after digestion according to the Association of Official Analytical Chemists methods. Concentrations of metals were measured using the Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The results showed that the range obtained for the elements analyzed in mg/kg (dry weight) were as follows, Cd (0.0027 - 0.0078), Pb (0.0048 - 0.0093), Zn (0.0103 - 0.0205), Ni (0.0122 - 0.0128), Fe (0.0149 - 0.0237), Cu (0.0008 - 0.0034) and Mn (0.0014 - 0.0037). The results indicated that canned fish samples in this study have concentrations well below the permissible FAO/WHO levels for these toxic metals.

A simple, accurate and rapid spectrophotometric method has been developed for the estimation of mebendazole in pure, pharmaceutical formulations and camel urine. The method is based on the reaction of mebendazole with1-fluoro 2, 4-dinitrobenzene to produce orange-yellow colored complex having maximum absorption at 494 nm. Beeˈs law was obeyed over the concentration range of 20-280μg/ml, with molar absorptivity of 3.32x104 l/mol.cm. The present method is considered to be simple because it does not need heating, hydrolysis, and solvent extraction steps. The proposed method has been successfully applied for the determination of mebendazole in pure, pharmaceutical formulations and in camel urine.

A simple, accurate, and rapid visible spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of tetracycline hydrochloride in pure, pharmaceutical preparations and environmental water samples. The method is based on the oxidation of tetracycline hydrochloride by sodium hypochlorite in alkaline medium to form a red colored product with an absorption maximum at 400 nm.  Beer’s Law was obeyed in the range of 2-24 µg/ml with molar absorptivity of 1.346×104 L.mol.-1.cm-1.  The relative standard deviation of the method was less than 2% and accuracy (average recovery ) was  100 ± 0.85 %. The optimum conditions for all color development are described and the proposed method has been successfully applied for the determination of tetracycline hydrochloride in pharmaceutical preparations, chicken meat, and wastewater samples.

     In the current study, 16 rabbits was divided into two groups.  Animals of Group I (untreated control) were maintained without any treatment. Group 2 animals (treated group), the gentamicin were injected in thigh muscle /I.M. at 25 mg/kg body weight twice a day (morning and evening) for two months. During the experimental period anorexia, emaciation, and death some animals were seen. Histopathological examination showed that there was proliferated of cortical renal tubules cells and degeneration with necrosis of some them as well as congestion of sinusoid in liver and proliferation of bile duct. There was also vacuolated and congestion of myocardial tissue.  In conclusion, the administration of gentamycin for a long time could serve as a source of harm to animal organs such as kidney, liver, bile duct, and heart

A study using 300 one-day-old Ross-308 broilers was conducted to assess the effects of dried ginger root powder (Zingiber officinale) addition at percentages (0.2, 0.4 and 0.6) % in the treatments T1, T2 and T3 respectively on growth performance, immune status and small intestine morphology of broiler chickens at different ages. Compare with the control group (T0) without adding ginger powder.     The broiler body weight, body weight gain, viability, production index, and economic profit impacted with addition of ginger powder significantly (P≤0.05) increase in T3 at ages (1-21 d) and (36-42). As well as feed conversion ratio (FCR) particularly improved. In addition the morphological of small intestine goblet cells number in (duodenum , jejunum, and ileum), immunological delayed type of hypersensitivity DTH and ELISA titer against Newcastle(ND), Gumboro (IBD) and Infectious bronchitis (IB) diseases of broiler chickens were significantly higher (P≤0.05) at the ages 21, 35 and 42 d. While mortality and H/L ratio were significantly lower in the treatments of ginger supplementation especially in T3 compare with the control group without ginger addition.
