Study of hematological, morphological and biochemical parameters of goats infected with soft foreign bodies in the rumen
الملخص
The study was conducted on /18/ head of goats, selected from several herds of a local breed, not pregnant, their ages ranged between /3- 5/ years, of both sexes, including males /4/ heads, and females / 14/ heads, and the degree of Its obesity (BCS) ranged between 2-4/ degrees, and the aim of this study was to reveal the morphological and biochemical blood variables that occur (as a result) of the presence of smooth foreign bodies in the rumen. The research animals were placed in three groups, each group included /6/ heads, and the first group, which includes healthy animals, was designated as a witness to the experiment, and the second group had its animals infected with smooth foreign bodies, and the animals of the third group were also infected, but they were treated surgically. The averages of Hb (7.1 g/dl), PCV (23.6%), and RBCS (8.77 106 µL) in the animals of the second group were significantly lower at (P < 0.05) compared to the animals of the first and third groups, while there were no significant differences when comparing WBCS Among the three groups, it was also found that the mean values of glucose (35.9mg/dl), total protein (5.6 g/dl), and albumin (2.5 g/dl) in the animals of the second group were significantly lower than them at a value (P < 0.05) when compared with the first and third group values
There were no significant differences at the value of (P<0.05) when comparing the values of calcium, phosphorous, sodium, chloride, and potassium between the animals of the second and third group and the animals of the first group. The results indicate that rumen infection with soft foreign bodies in goats affects some hematological factors (RBCs, Hb, PCV) and blood biochemical parameters (glucose, total protein, albumin), and can be used as a basis for formulating preventive measures.
