In Vitro Fertilization of Immature Oocytes by Testicular Sperm: Animal Model for Azoospermic Infertile Patients
...Show More Authors

Background: Men with azoospermia require testicular and epididymal sperm aspiration for intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Women over 37 years of age demonstrate
an increase number of immature oocytes after induction of ovulation. The development of a technique for in vitro maturation (IVM) and fertilization (IVF) of
the oocytes using testicular, epididymal and vassal sperm (TS, ES, VS, respectively) will be of therapeutic value for the treatment of azoospermic patients.
Objectives: The goal of the study was to develop an animal model for the treatment of infertile couples with obstructive azoospermia and immature oocytes.
Materials and Methods: Canine ovaries and testes were collected from a local animal clinic. Immature oocytes were retrieved from the ovaries and cultured in modified tissue
culture medium (MTCM). The mature oocytes were in vitro fertilized by TS, ES, and VS. The normality of the fertilized oocytes was studied.
Results: Sperm motility index was significantly higher (P<0.01) in sperm retrieved from the vas deference compared to ES and TS. The concentration of the sperm was
significantly higher (P<0.05) in the testes compared to epididymis and vas deference while VS and ES normal morphology were significantly (p<0.01) better than TS. Viable oocyte
percentage was significantly higher (P<O.05) in 72 hours versus 96 hours culture durations. Significant higher IVF was reported in VS compared to other groups (P < 0.05) and the SPI
was significantly higher after 96 versus 72 hours duration (P<O.05).
Conclusion: IVM of the oocytes in MTCM for 72 and 96 h resulted in a significant increase in IVM rate compared to 48,120, and 144 h durations. In vitro viable mature
oocytes showed higher IVF rates when fertilized with VS compared to ES and TS. The results showed that canine oocytes are good model for azoospermic patients.

EFFECT OF ANIMAL FEED SUPPLEMENTATION WITH DIFFERENT CONCENTRATIONS OF FENUGREEK SEEDS (Trigonellafoenumgraecum) ON ANIMAL PRODUCTION AND MICROBIAL CHICKEN MEAT.: EFFECT OF ANIMAL FEED SUPPLEMENTATION WITH DIFFERENT CONCENTRATIONS OF FENUGREEK SEEDS (Trigonellafoenumgraecum) ON ANIMAL PRODUCTION AND MICROBIAL CHICKEN MEAT.
...Show More Authors

This study was conducted in the poultry field of Al-Mustansiriya University/ Baghdad, to show the effect of adding different levels 0, 1, 5 and 10% of the fenugreek seeds in the rations containing many contaminated microbes on the productive performance of broilers. 150-day-old rose meat was used with a 41 average weight (gm), were randomly allocated to 4 treatments with 3 replicates, and for each treatment 15 chicks per repetition: 0, 1, 5, and 10% (T0-T3), respectively. The results of this study showed that fenugreek seeds contain good amounts of protein, fat, ash and carbohydrates, which are 24.92, 8.82, 3.08 and 54.28 respectively. Fenugreek seeds also have high levels of tannins, coumarins and flavones, followed by saponins,

EFFECT OF HONEY ON SPERM CHARACTERISTICS AND PREGNANCY RATE IN MICE
...Show More Authors

    The aim of the current study is to demonstrate the effect of honey on the sperms characteristics (sperm concentration, sperm motility, grade of activity and sperm normal morphology) as well as pregnancy rate in mice. Sperms were obtained from caudal epididymis of male mice and prepared by adding10% of honey to the IVF medium using direct sperms activation technique for 30 minute incubation period before artificial insemination.

 

    The study revealed a significant (P > 0.05) increase in active sperm motility (grade A and grade B) 49% and pregnancy rate 53.3% in female mice artificially inseminated with sperms. On the other hand, there were no significant differences in sperm con

INSECT PESTS INFESTING ANIMAL MUSEUM COLLECTIONS IN IRAQ
...Show More Authors

Studies were conducted from 1980 to 1989 to determine the insect pests infested animal museum collections in Iraq. Twelve species of Coleoptera were recovered, eleven belonged to the Dermestidae, and one to the Tenebrionidae. Of these Anthrenus coloratus Reitt. and Phradonoma nobile (Reitt.) were the most commonest and widely distributed species. Trogoderma bactrianum Zhant. and Orphilus niger (Rossi) were recorded here for the first time in Iraq.

Revitalization of a necrotic immature permanent anterior tooth (Case Report)
...Show More Authors

Background: Management of immature permanent teeth with necrotic pulp is considered challenging to the clinician. Regeneration of pulp tissue is a relatively new approach for management of these teeth that allow continuation of root maturation rather than formation of just a calcific barrier as in apexification. Method: 9 years-old girl with traumatized upper left central incisor. The clinical and radiographical examinations revealed uncomplicated crown fracture, tenderness to percussion, absence of response to cold vitality test. Diagnostic X-ray revealed open apex with periapical radiolucency. Revascularization was suggested to treat the tooth, starting with irrigation of canal with 5% NaOCl + 3% H2O2, followed by 2 weeks of triple antibi

Establish Growth Curve in Light of Body Mass Index for Infertile Women in Baghdad City
...Show More Authors

Objective: To establish growth curve for a sample of infertile women and to assess Body Mass Index.
Methodology: Non-probability (purposive sample) of (100) infertile women, who visit Kamal Al-Samaraee
Hospital/ fertility and IVF center . The data are collected through the use of constructed questionnaire, which
consists of two parts. Part 1: consists of (5) items about demographic characteristics, part 2: consists of (4) items
about reproductive status, descriptive statistical analysis procedures (frequency, percentage, Contingency
coefficients, polynomial cube order).
Results: Revealed that the infertile women in the study group had decrease in their Body Mass Index with aging
(with increase of infertility duration

Laser Biostimulation Effect on Human Sperm Motility
...Show More Authors

Background: Sperm motility disorder is an important cause of infertility in male, and one of the causes of reduced motility of the sperm is the disorders of the mitochondria because it provides the required energy for sperm motility, Laser biostimulation or low-level laser therapy has a positive effect on the mitochondria and led to increasing the synthesis of ATP. Method: Twenty fresh human semen samples were used in this research study, each sample was separated into two portions, one was used as control which is not exposed to the laser beam and the other was irradiated with the wavelength of 410 nm diode laser with an output power of 100 mW and an exposure time of 60 seconds, then the measurement of
