This study was conducted to evaluate the possibility of using sodium
Hypochloride by the Iraqies housewives at different concentrations (2%, 3%)
and different dipping times (30, 60 and 90 minutes ) in order to reduce the
initial microbial counts , without any adverse effect on the organoleptic
characteristics of the treated minced meat. Bacterial counts in all samples of
meat were enumerated by standard method of miles and mirza technique before
and after treatment .The result showed that the treatment of meat with chlorine at concentration 2
% for 30 and 60 minute reduce the bacterial content on bacterial load ( colony
forming unit – cfu / ml) to a level which was significant from the Public health
point of

For this purpose two types of Datura stramonium extract were prepared. The first was precipitated by acetone and the other was destructed by ether then precipitated with ammonium sulphate. The first extract yielded 2.5gram/ 5 gram of seeds weight; while, the second extract yielded 1.23 gram/ 5 gram of seed weight. Biochemical tests exhibited that lectin and trace amounts of glycosides were presented in the acetone precipitated extract. Whereas, the ether extract contained lectin, tannin, flavonoids, and trace amounts of alkaloids
The aim of the present study is to investigate the antidiabetic effect of the aqueous extract of Momordica charantia seeds in alloxan - induced diabetic rats. Forty male albino Wistar rats were used, divided randomly into four groups (10 each). Oral administration of the seed extract at a dose of 150 mg/kg B.W. for 30 days showed a significant decrease in fasting blood glucose. Our results were greatly lower after oral administration of aqueous extract of Momordica charantia seeds in alloxan- induced diabetic groups than glibenclamide treated group. Also Momordica charantia extract and glibenclamide administered rats showed progressive increase in body weight
A comparison between two techniques of subtotal laparoscopic cholecystectomy was studied to find the best technique for treating severe cholecystitis and to study the fate of the remaining part of the gallbladder. All experimental animals had inducing cholecystitis by clipping the cystic duct for five days which was enough for inducing cholecystitis in goats. 24 adult female goats were used in this study, which were divided randomly into two equal groups; subtotal laparoscopic cholecystectomy with cystic duct and cystic artery clipping by titanium clips (group A) and laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy with cystic duct clipping only (group B).

Domestic pigeons (Columba livia domestica) act as a potential reservoir for several species of Cryptosporidium because they live in close proximity to humans. This study was conducted to assess the genetic diversity of Cryptosporidium in domestic pigeons in Iraq. A total of one hundred samples obtained from feces of domestic pigeons in Babylon province were included. After being exposed to microbial examination, all fecal samples were subsequently screened by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the possible recognition of Cryptosporidium species. Microsc

Incidence of bacterial and fungal contaminants in imported chicken femurs was
determined and compared with standard microbiological limits. A total of (12) Kg
of imported chicken femurs were randomly collected at two batches from (6) areas
in Baghdad city. Total aerobic bacterial count, coli form count and Staphylococcus
aureus count were used as an indicator for bacterial contamination, in addition to
yeast and mould count as an indicator for fungal contamination.
Data revealed that skins of imported chicken femurs produced high level of
contamination, in which most of the bacterial counts were near the maximum
standard limit as well as contamination with fungi, whereas the level of
