The results of differential white blood cell count showed marked increase in the numbers of lymphocyte percentage (64.75%) with a variation in the numbers of monocytes and eosinophils and a decrease in neutrophil numbers which reached 32% in mice immunized and orally administered with antioxidants. In connection with delayed type hypersensitivity in the foot pad the results showed a rise in the rate of foot pad thickness in mice immunized and orally administered with antioxidants as the highest thickness reached 0.82 mm at 24 hours after the injection of antigen and phagocytosis index in mice immunized and orally administered with antioxidants showed an increase of 74% compared with negative and positive control mice in addition to the gross changes of this group which was positively reflected on their appearance, movement, weight and feeding. So this group was experimentally infected with secondary hydatid cyst through their intra peritoneal injection with 2000 protoscolices. The second aspect of the study was to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of three drugs which belong to Benzimedazole and Isoquinoline viz albendazole (ABZ), oxfendazole (OFZ) and praziquental (PZQ) as well as to follow - up some aspects of the haematological and immunological parameters in mice after their infection, immunization and treatment which included differential white blood cell count, delayed type hypersensitivity test, phagocytosis, micronucleus test and agar gel immune diffusion test.Regarding changes in differential white blood cell count, mice treated with OFZ and OFZ + PZQ showed an increase in neutrophils and decline in lymphocytes compared with positive control group. Also, an increase in foot pad thickness after 24hrs compared with other treated groups and positive control group. An increase in the phagocytosis was noticed in OFZ treated group (53.17%) and OFZ+PZQ treated group (71.5%) and a significant decline in the micronucleus test of 28% and 29.1%, respectively compared with mice treatment with OFZ + ABZ and ABZ+ PZQ which indicates the efficiency of OFZ drug treated alone or in a combination form.The third aspect of the study was to evaluate the effect of infection with hydatid cyst and different chemical treatments on liver functions where the study showed that liver enzymes such as AST, ALT and ALP, as well as the total and direct bilirubin serum level in mice treated with OFZ alone and OFZ + PZQ were closer to those of the negative group compared with the groups treated with OFZ+ABZ and ABZ+PZQ.The fourth aspect of the study was to evaluate the biological aspects related to weight of the mice treated with OFZ alone or combination with praziquental OFZ+PZQ where a slight increase in the average weight of 11.13% and 12.10%, respectively was occurred in compared with the negative control due to the low number of cyst and cyst fibrosis which occurred in comparison with those existed in mice treated with OFZ+ABZ and ABZ+PZQ which showed a significant increase(p<0.001) which reached 13.50% and 14.87%, respectively.The treated group showed a reduction in liver weight and enlargement rate which was significantly different from that of the positive control group at the level of probability of P< 0.001, as OFZ+PZQ caused the disappearance of the cysts from the spleen(96.70%), followed by group treated with OFZ (93.75%) and then by group treated with OFZ+ABZ and ABZ+ PZQ which showed a treatment efficacy of 82.5% and 77.5%, respectively. The study also included the evaluation of the pathological changes of liver and spleen of mice after four months of the infection and treatment. The result showed satisfactory histopathological changes in comparison with positive control group. When investigating the role of some cellular interleukins in the immune response against Echinococcus granulosus through the immunohistochemical (IHC)test, the results showed an increase in the level of cytokines secreted byTh1 such as IFN - γ andTNF - α as well as IL - 2. The results showed higher level of protein expression IL - 2 in mice group treated with OFZ+PZQ which amounted 65.1% in spleen and 54.1% in liver compared with other treated and negative and positive control groups. Also, an increase in protein expression of IFN - γ was occurred in the treated groups compared with the negative and positive controls except in the group which was treated with OFZ+PZQ where no significant differences were appear in the negative control. The statistical analysis showed the presence of high significant differences (p<0.001) in the level of expression proteins TNF - α compared with negative and positive control groups. Reduction level of cytokines secretion from Th2 (IL - 10 and TGF - β) in mice treated with the four treated group particularly the group which was treated with OFZ+PZQ showed that IL - 10 protein expression in spleen was low and reached 29.7% and 8.2% in liver compared with the other treated and control groups. The level of expression of proteins of TGF - β in the immunized and treated mice showed significant differences at the level of the probability of p<0.001 of the group compared with negative and positive control group. Generally, a high significant level of cytokines produced byTh1andTh2 in immunized and treated mice

Also a mixture of aquatic extract of Punica granatum Pericarp in concentration of (50,100) mg/ml, and (100, 200) mg/ml concentrate of the aquatic extract of Capparis spinosa Fruit . And a similar mixture was prepared for the alcoholic extracts in similar concentrations. A test was performed for the efficiency of each of the prepared extracts, in attenuation of protoscolices Echinococcus granulosus. Batch,1786 which were isolated from hydatid cysts of liver in sheep In vitro to determine the optimum concentration to kill the protoscolices, where the test is then to be performed by injecting the protoscolices intraperitonealy in white mice In vivo. Actually the vitality of protoscolices had dropped drastically with the application of aquatic extracts of Punica granatum Pericarp at the concentrations of (200 , 300) mg/ml, and aquatic extracts of Capparis spinosa Fruit at the concentration of (200 , 300) mg/ml, and the mixture of both the aquatic extracts at the concentration (100+200) mg/ml, where complete death was achieved at times, 90 , 45 , 90 , 60 , 60 minutes respectively. Alcoholic extracts of Punica granatum Pericarp and Capparis spinosa Fruit , and their mixture showed complete killing of Protoscolices at the time 30 , 30 , 60 minute in concentrations of {300 & (100+200)} mg/ml.Before performing the test In vivo, we determined the average lethal doses which were 9.41 , 10.7 , 8.1 , 10 , 8.8 , 11.3 g/ kg for the aquatic extract of Punica granatum, Capparis spinosa, their Alcoholic extracts, the aquatic mixture, and the alcoholic mixture respectively. Thus, the extracts in such concentrations could be considered as safe and low poisoning . The study included testing and application of the best concentration for treatment of the white mice that were injected with protoscolices, a negative group were injected with normal saline to determine the effect of extracts In vivo. The study measured, also the changes in average numbers, weights, dimensions, and percentage of reduction of hydatid cysts In vivo. Where it showed a decrease in the average number, weight, factors of its distension of the secondary hydatid cysts which developed in mice treated with the aquatic extracts of Punica granatum , Capparis spinosa, and increase of percentage of reduction compared with the positive control group, where a 100% reduction of hydatid cysts was achieved in the treated groups.Changes in liver and spleen weights, and average of hypertrophy showed some variations. Where average of weights and hypertrophy of liver of mice treated with aquatic extracts of Punica granatum , Capparis spinosa were similar to those of the positive group. A significant drop in these averages was observed in other groups. Best results were observed in groups treated with the alcoholic mixture, as well as in those treated with the alcoholic extract of Punica granatum, where the changes were close to those of the negative group. The study included observation of the effect of treatment with the above mentioned extracts and with Albendazole, on tissue changes of liver and spleen. Where liver showed significant changes, most important of which were the changes of the liver cell and increase in the number of the kupffer cell as a defensive mechanism, which were much less than their rate in the positive control group. On the other hand, spleen showed dilation of the white pulp and the appearance of cells composing of the Hemic platelet (megakaryocytic cells) in processed mice compared with unprocessed negative control group. These tissue changes were less persistent in groups processed with the alcoholic mixture of Punica granatum and Capparis spinosa and groups processed with the mixture of alcoholic extracts. By performing physiochemical analyses for the extracts to specify their effective compounds, we came to conclude that the aquatic and alcoholic extracts of Pericarp Punica granatum contain Alkaloids ,Flavonoids ,Glycosides, Phenols, Terpenoids, Tannins, and Steroids. whereas the alcoholic extracts in addition to these compounds, contain resins. whereas the aquatic extract of carp Capparis spinosa contain Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Glycosides, Terpenoids. Alcoholic extract of fruit Capparis spinosa contains in addition to these compounds ,tannin

All those individuals were suffering from diarrhea and abdominal pain. This study included the microscopic identification of Entamoeba Spp. using direct wet amount and concentration techniques in order to diagnose both Trophozoite and cyst stages of the parasite. The result revealed that 1050 (26.86%) of the collected samples were infected with Entamoeba Spp. Out of these infected samples, 80 were randomly selected for further confirmation by conventional PCR and 18S rRNA. Using this method, 28 (35%) was recorded to have Entamoeba Spp. Positive samples from conventional PCR were further examined by Nested PCR for species specific identification. The result of this method showed the presence of two species, E. histolytica (39.29%) and E. dispar (39.29%).Positive samples for molecular examination (28) were then examined by Real time PCR in order to verify and confirm the molecular results. Two probes were used, Histolytica - 96 Tfor E. histolytica and Dispar - 96 T for E. dispar. A significant difference was observed between two methods. E. histolytica was found to be higher percentage followed by E. dispar and then Entamoeba Spp., 53.57%, 39.29% and 7.14% respectively. The Real time PCR reported mono - infection with E. histolytica in 45.5% and with E. dispar in 27.2%, whereas reported mixed infections by both parasites in 27.3%. Red blood cells (RBCs) were detected in 80% E. histolytica positive samples and in 54.55% E. dispar positive ones.The environmental factors and their correlation with Entamoeba Spp. prevalence were also included in this study. The infection prevalence based on the seasonal variation showed significant differences P≤ 0.05. Summer recorded the highest infection prevalence whereas the lowest was in the winter, 37.06% and 14.14% respectively. Regarding the infection in age groups, the highest percentage (30.5%) was recorded in under 3 years old group and the lowest (17.13%) was found in above 10 years old one. However, no significant difference P≤ 0.05 was observed between these age groups. Furthermore, no significant differences were recorded betweenpatient’s sex. Entamoeba Spp. infection (37.98%) appeared to be higher in children who belong to families with low standard of living compared to those who are from families that earning a higher income (10.11%). A Similar pattern was found in Entamoeba Spp. prevalence based on the number of the patient’s family members. Higher prevalence and significant difference were reported (39.95%) in patients who belong high family member (above 10), compared to those from 3 - 5family member (8.54%).One hundred and fifty blood samples from infected children with Entamoeba Spp. and fifty samples from healthy children as a control were collected during the present study in order to observe the change in blood picture and parameters between two groups. Significant differences were reported in blood hemoglobin (10.16%) and volume of packed RBCs (34.7%) in the infected group compared to 12.34% and 39.10% in the control group. Total leukocyte count was found to be significantly higher in the infected group (11.3) compared to the individuals in the control group (3.37). Differential leukocyte count also showed significant differences in Neutrophils (6.92%, 4.03), eosinophils (0.61, 0.17), monocytes (1.19,0.93) and lymphocytes (2.19, 2.76) in infected and control groups respectively.

Abstract: This study included 3 stages. In the first stage, Toxoplasma gondii was isolated from aborted women placenta who visited Bent Al - Huda hospital and Al - Shatra hospital after confirmation of the prescence of parasite by impression smear method. Then parasite uspension injected 0.3 ml which contain 100 cyst intraperitoneally (174 rat) to 87 male and 87 female rats, inaddition to control group 30 rat (15 male and 15 female). After 10 days of injection, diagnosed the acute infection by Real - Time Poplymerase Chain Reaction(Real - Time PCR) and showed 97.70% (170 infected rat and 4 noninfected rat) , in male 96.55% (84 infected rat and 3 noninfected) ,in female 98.85% (86 infected rat and 1 noninfected) . After 2months of infection 84 animals (42 males and 42 females)were sacrificed, dissected (brain, testis and ovary ) were isolated to confirm the occurance of chronic infection with the using Real - Time PCR. The incidence of infection was 100% in brain males and ovary females and recorded 71.43% in testis and 90.48% in brain females. So diagnosed infection by impression smear method, identified the amount of DNA of the parasite T. gondii by using Real - Time PCR. The use of the remaining number of animals within the following experiments.The second stage included effect of experimental Toxoplasmosis infection and some drugs on fertility 168 rat (84 male and 84 female). Animals were subdivided into 6 groups for each group included 14 rat : (First group) non infected treated by DMSO, (Second roup) non infected treated by Sulfadiazine, (Third group) non infected treated by Pyrimethamine, (Fourth group) infected treated by DMSO, (Fifth group) infected treated by Sulfadiazine and (Sixth group) infected treated by Pyrimethamine.The current study results revealed prominent effect of T. gondii infection on the hormonal level in both males and females. T. gondii infection induced significant decline in Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Testosterone levels in nfected male compared with non infected males treated by DMSO. Sulf. and Pyr. treatment significantly elevated the level of these hormones (P <0.01) in infected males compared with fourth group similar to levels its in first group. Toxoplasmosis in female rats significantly decrease FSH, LH, Estrogen and Progesterone levels in compared with first group, while treating of infected females with Sulf. and Pyr. didn,t improve the declined levels of these hormones in infected and noninfected females comparedwith fourth and first group, respectively.The study showed that Toxoplasmosis in male rats induced significant decline in the sperm count in the epididymal cauda, sperm viability and relative weights of male sexual organs with an increase in sperm malformation ratio in infected male compared with first group. Treatment with Sulf. and Pyr. in infected male significanthy elevated the sperm count and viability (P<0.05), compared with fourth group. Sulf. didn,t induced further significant changes, but Pyr. induced further significant increase in sperm malformation ratio in infected (P< 0.01) and non infected (P<0.05) rats. The study also revealed that Toxoplasmosis significantly decrease the relative weight of ovary and uterus compared with first group, while treatment with Sulf. and Pyr. increased the declined relative weight of the ovary and uterus in the infected females.Testicular histological section of Toxoplasmosis infected male rats treatment with DMSO showed vacular degeneration of spermatogonia and spermatocytes. The seminiferous tubules revealed sever degeneration, shrinkal, necrosis, hemorrhage. Seminiferous tubules lumen contained little amount of sperm with appearance of gaint cell, polymorphonuclear leukocytes and exfoliated cellular debris. Metamorphosis and disintegration of the tissue between the seminiferous tubules was also observed compared to the first group that showed complex histologically intact while testes sections of infected rats treatment Pyr. and Sulf. showed improvement by removing histocompatibility damage caused by the parasite infection.The epididymal sections of T. gondii infected rats treatment with DMSO showed infiltration of mononuclear and multinucleated gaint cell. Sections also showed hyperplasia of duct lining and contained tissue cyst of T. gondii. All these changes were improved in infected males treated by Sulf. and Pyr. Ovary sections of the infected females treatment with DMSO compared with first group revealed decreased primary and secondary follicle increased follicle atresia. Histological sections of ovary females showed in the fifth and sixth group to increase the number of primary and secondary follicles and decreased number of follicle atresia compared overian sections for the fourth group. Uterine sections of the infected females treatment with DMSO showed hypertrophy, increase endometrial thickness and myometerium, increase polymorphonuclear cell infiltration, fewer glands and congestion of blood vessels compared with first group. Histological sections for ovary females of the fifth and sixth group showed changes but less severe than is present in the fourth group.In third stage from studying Toxoplasmosis on fertility parameters of male and female rats, 84 rat(42 male and 42 female) which showed the results of the current study, when paired fertilized healthy females by males is infected and infected of T.gondii treatment with Sulf. , Pyr. and DMSO, and inversion, there is the effect of the parasite and used drugs the percentage of getting pregnant and pregnancy size and rate of embryos weight and placental weight and increase the proportion of fetal resorption and the proportion of early loss of embryos in fertilized healthy females by males five groups compared to the first group.Based on that conclude from the study that the infection of parasite T. gondii had negative effects on the fertility of male and female, and that all of thePyr. and Sulf. were not honest is the other of the impact on reproductive functions.

The percentage of liver, lungs, both together and spleen infection in cattle were 3.11 %, 2.95 % , 1.55 % and 0.08 % respectively while intensity of infection in liver, lungs, both together and spleen was 2.5, 2.18, 7 and 1 respectively. The percentage of liver, lungs and both together infection in buffaloes were 2.22 %, 0.99 % and 0.25 % respectively while intensity of infection in liver, lungs and both together was 1.89, 1 and 2 respectively. No significant differences in percentage and intensity of infection in camels andboth percentage and intensity of infection in liver and lungs were 1.11% and 2 respectively.High significant differences was recorded between percentage infection in males and females of animals. The percentage of infection in females were 15.87 %, 13.42 %, 6.99 % and 3.45 % in sheep, cattle, buffaloes and camels respectively. Highest percentage of infection were 0.72 %, 0.18 % and 0.46 % in males of sheep, cattle and buffaloes respectively. No infection were recorded in males of camels.T he age was effect on percentage of infection and big aging groups recorded in sheep, cattle, buffaloes and camels. The present study recorded significant differences in percentage of fertile hydatid cysts in liver and lungs of animals and highest of percentage of fertility recorded in liver and lungs of sheep 84.21 % and 79.24 % respectively and lower percentage of fertility was in liver of buffaloes 11.11% and liver of cattle 14.70 %. The lower percentage of sterile hydatid cysts was in liver and lungs of sheep 15.79 % and 20.75 % respectively and highest percentage recorded in liver of buffaloes 88.88 % and spleen of cattle 100 %.S t a tistical analysis using of ANOVAs test showed no significant differences in total length, length of blade and width for large and small protoscolices hooks of hydatid cysts isolated from liver and lungs of sheep, human, cattle buffaloes, camels and hooks of sheep which is showed genetic variations (new strain).The PCR - RFLP technique was used in identification of E.granulosus strains infecting human and intermediate hosts in Thi - Qar province. The molecular study is carried out on 75 hydatid cysts collected from human, sheep, cattle, buffaloes and camels. The DNA is extracted from protoscolices of hydatid cysts isolated from infected organs. PCR - RFLP technique showed that sheep strain G1 of E.granulosus is predominant in Thi - Qar province depending on amplification of rDNA - ITS1 gene. The PCR products in all DNA samples showed 1000 bp approximately. Alu1 endonuclease with rDNA - ITS1 demonstrated two bands 800 bp and 200 bp approximately, while Rsa1 endonuclease showed two bands 655 bp and 345 bp approximately which is similar to sheep strain genotype 1.Sequence analysis for rDNA - ITS1 gene showed the presence of sheepstrain genotype 1 which is similar 100 % to sheep strain in gene bank exceptone isolate (sheep liver) was differs from other strains in position ofnucleotide sequence. It was similar 99 % for sequence of sheep strain. Thedata base of this new strain was recorded in gene bank for DNA sequence National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) and European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) for the first time globally under the name Echinococcus granulosus strain WH1AW2 (GenBank : LT547814). Polymerase chain reaction technique and sequence analysis of mtCOX1 gene showed the presence of sheep strain G1 of human, sheep, cattle, buffaloes and camels. The sequence analysis showed the genetic variation in mtCOX1 gene for hydatid cyst in infected sheep represented by point mutation type transition which caused change Adenine to Guanine, and sequence data base of the sample recorded for first time in NCBI and ENA (GenBank : LC203589). Buffaloes strain G3 isolated from human lung recorded for first time in Thi - Qar province depending on comparison of samples sequences with source strains recorded in gene bank (NCBI) using "BLAST". The size of bands for mtCOX1 gene was 450 bp in all samples

Abstract: A total of 401 represented by 128 birds of Himantopus himantopus which belong to the family Recurvirostridae , 93 birds of Chettusia leucura which belong to the family charadriidae and 180 birds of Sturnus vulgaris which belong to the family sturnidae at the period from April 2014 to march 2015 in Al - Sanaf marsh , Suq - Al - Shuyukh city southern of the Thi - Qar province,for searching the nematodes which belong to the family Tetrameridae. Four species of nematodes, which belong to the family Tetrameridae, were isolated in the current study. They were T.nouveli, T.dubia, T.spinosa and Microtetrameres inermis. The H. himantopus was infected with the nematode T.nouveli and the prevalence of infection was 25.8% , bird.Furthermore, the Chettusia leucura was infected, the mean intensity was 3.3 worm in each infected birds. The nematode T.dubia was isolated from H. himantopus with the isolated from the Ch. Leucura mean intensity was 1.7.The nematode T.spinosa was isolated from H. himantopus the the mean intensity of infection was 2.3 and it was isolated from the Ch. leucura , the prevalence of infection 4.3% and the mean intensity was 1.8 worm in each infected worm.The record of these three nematode is considering the first record in Iraq.Microtetrameres inermis was isolated from the Sturnus vulgaris, the each infected birds.Himantopus himantopus from April 2014 to March of 2015.This bird was infected with three species from family Tetrameridae, The seasonal variation study of infection prevalence of Tetrameres spp.in, H. himantopus that there was II Summarycomplete seasonal cycle for nematodes T.nouveli, T.dubia , and T.spinosa .The nematode T.nouveli had hightest infection prevalence in summer the decrease in autumn, winter and spring while the infection prevalence of nematode T.dubia was hight in summer and autumn then decrease in winter and spring. The infection prevalence of nematode T.spinosa was generally low with little increase in autumn .The results of the current of the Ch. leucura indicated that this bird was infected with three species which nematodes T.nouveli, T.dubia and T.spinosa and they had seasonal appearance . There was not any significant effect of host sex on prevalence of infection, and it showed decreased in prevalence of infection when the bird's weight was increased.The study of lifecycle of nematodes : T.nouveli ,T.dubia and M. inermis revealed obtainment the larval stages after success the infection experimental of the grasshopper Schistocerca gregaria for the first time the three isolated nematodes from family Tetrameridae in this study which it was T.nouveli , T. dubia and M.inermis and was included the lifecycle of the three species . The differences were including the period of time to produce and developing the larval stages in addition to the differences in their shapes, it was revealed that were clear differences in the structure and their shape of the tip the posterior end of the third larval stage. The end of the third larval stage of the nematode T. nouveli had three caudal papilla and the posterior end of nematode T.dubia had five caudal papilla while the end of the third larval stage of M.inermis did not have any caudal papilla , so we can distinguish these nematode larval stage depended on the prevalence this character in their third larval stage.The experimental infection of the Columba livia domestica with nematode M.inermis was successful.While the experimental infection to the Columba livia domestica with nematode T.nouveli ,T.dubia .was failed The experimental infection of the Gallus domestica with nematodes of Tetrameridae T.nouveli, T.dubia and M.inermis was failed too.

Abstract: A total of 420 aquatic birds belonging to four species( Chettusia leucura , Himantopus himantopus, Gallinula chloropus and Fulica atrawere collected in the current study during the period between December 2012 to November 2013 fisolated from Al - Chibayish marshes , eastern of Thi Qar province. Digenetic trematode, Haematotrephus nittanyense was isolated from H. himantopus and C. leucura. Prevalence in those birds were 20.7% , 2.2% respectively. Mean intensity of infection 1.7 , 1.2 respectively. Digenetic trematode , Haematotrephus chengi was found in C.leucura, the Prevalence of infection was 20.7% . These two trematodes were recorded for the first time in Iraqi birds . 2.6% of Ch. leucura were infected with Digenetic trematode , Uvitellina iraquensi , mean intensity of infection was 2.7 . Digenetic trematode , Cyclocoelum mutabile Cyclocoelum mutabile was isolated from F. atra and G. chloropus birds . Prevalence in those birds were 21.2% ,10% respectively. Mean intensity of infection 3 , 3 . Digenetic trematode , Cyclocoelum microstomum was found in 20% of G. chloropus birds and in 15% of F. atra , mean intensity of infection 2.8 , 1.8 respectively.The current study revealed that , most eggs of H. nittanyense , H. chengi and U. iraquensis hatch within the uteri of worms while embryonated eggs of C. mutabile and C. microstomum shed from mature worms hatch within few hours after being placed in water. The mean number of eggs differed between species. Hatching of C. mutabile and C. microstomum eggs did not occur at 12°C . Egg hatching rate of C. mutabile differed from eggs hatching rate of C. microstomum at all temperatures . Temperatures, salinity and acidification of water affectedthe rate of hatching of C. mutabile and C. microstomum eggs , and the results varied between two different species . Storing eggs of C. mutabile and C. microstomum at (0,4)°C for ( 1 - 8) weeks failed to hatch . Storing eggs of C. mutabile and C. microstomum at (7,10,12)°C for (1 - 8) weeks had no effect on hatching success or on eggs hatching rate.A biological study of the miracidia of trematodes which were isolated in the current study showed that , the survivorship and longevity of miracidia were differed among the different species . Temperature, salinity and acidification of water affected the survivorship and longevity of miracidia . Storing eggs of all species at (7,10,12)°C for eight weeks had no effect on survivorship and longevity of their miracidia. The study revealed that , the miracidia of all species were infective to Radix auricularia and Physa acuta snails , but R. auricularia snails more sensitive to infection . The infectivity of the miracidia of all species to R. auricularia and P. acuta snails varied according to the species of these trematodes . Infection rate of R. auricularia snails with the miracidia of all species , mean intensity of infection and the metacercariae output varied according to species of these trematodes, temperature , miracidial density as well as size of snails. Miracidia hatching from eggs stored for 1 - 8 weeks at 7°C not differed in their infectivity to snail. The miracidia of all species hatching from eggs stored for (0 - 8) weeks at 7°C differed in their infectivity to snail according to the species of these trematodes. Age and density of H. chengi miracidia affected the infection rate of R. auricularia snails as well as affected the mean intensity of infection . H. chengi infection had no effect on mortality rate of R. auricularia and P. acuta snails.The results showed that there were differences between the various stages included in the life cycle of the five species of Cyclocoelidae family isolated in the current study . The time required for production and development of these stages varied according to their species, as well as these larval stages were differed among the species in their shapes , sizes and in the product number of them .The current study revealed that , metacercariae of the trematodes which were isolated in the current study fed separately to Gallus domesticus and Anas platyrhynchos failed to produce an infection , although the influence of C. leucura bile on metacercariae of H. nittanyense , H. chengi and U. iraquensis varied according to the species of these trematodes but bile of C. leucura plays a role in increasing excysted juveniles ratios , reduction the time required for excysting and increasing the time of juveniles activity compared with a bile of G. domesticus .In the current study. H. nittanyense showed a clear seasonal cycle of infection in local aquatic birds , H. himantopus ,while the study exposed a clear seasonal cycle of H. chengi infection in local aquatic birds C. leucura . Isolation of U. iraquensis in different periods during the current study from local aquatic birds, C. leucura may refer to its ability to complete its life cycle in a study area. Isolation of C. mutabile from migratory bird at arrival time to the study area may refer to new infections that carried by these migratory birds from their breeding grounds . Abundance of sensitive snails and suitable temperatures in a study area at arrival time of these birds may help this trematode to complete its life cycle in this area thus new infections emerged later and these infections may carry by microstomum isolated from migratory birds only at the arrival time to the study area may refer to new infections that carried by these migratory birds from their breeding grounds as well as this may indicate an inability to complete the life cycle of this trematode in this area.

Abstract: اجريت هذه الدراسة في البيت الحيواني التابع لقسم علوم الحياة / كلية التربية / جامعة القادسية للمدة من 1/9/2013 ولغاية 1/9/2014، للتحري عن انواع طفيلي الاكريات المتطفلة على الدجاج المصاب طبيعيا وعزل الطفيلي من الحالات المصابة الواردة الى المسستشفى البيطري | The study conducted in The animal house of the Biology department, College of Education, University of Al - Qadisiyah during the period from 1/9/2013 to 1/9/2014. The study diagnosed the species of Eimeria parasites in naturally infected chickens in poultry farms. Eimeria oocysts was isolated from the infected chickens feaces in Veterinary hospital and Veterinary clinics.Then, the cases diagnosed initially in the laboratory by direct examining stool smears and the positive cases were recorded.Through this study, oocysts were isolated, and two species of Eimeria parasites were diagnosed (E.tenella and E.maxima) by using the technique of Conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction technique.There are 186 cases of infected chicken which examined, and the results showed that (186 out of 315)stool Samples(59%), include infected with two species of Eimeria parasites E.tenella was in (135 out of 186, 72.5%) while the species E.maxima was in(51 out of 186, 27.4%). The experimental study was conducting two experiments were done.The first experiment, depend on the experimental infection of E.tenella species which was used for two types of chicken, (Ross type which is foreign, and local breed).The second experiment, includes experimental infection with the species E.maxima also in two types of chickens that mention above. Symptoms and clinical signs of the first experiment on foreign chickens included were recorded it is noticed that infected the chickens with E.tenella have was dull, unorganized feather and loss of appetite in addition to bloody diahrreha, loss weight, emaciated and isolated. The Gross Lesions include congestion of cecum and an increase in their sizes while inside the cecum, many ulcerated lesions were noticed, filling cecum with mucus and blood, liver was congested and enlarged. Microscopicale examination recorded congestion was full with blood cells and necrotic tissues cecum and falling of cells in the cecum lumen. Many different stages of the parasites were noticed as schizonts, merozoites, gametes and oocysts Hematological parameters showed high significant decrease (p?0.05) in Hb (0.38±5.94 mg / 100ml) in the fourth week of infection, PCV (0.68±18.47%) in the fifth week and RBC was (1.58±0.02x106) in the fourth week. Also, the infection led to significant increase difference of WBC (30.19±0.95x103) in the seventh week of infection in comparison of uninfected chickens of the control sample. The biochemical parameters of blood serum showed that significant decrease (p?0.05) in glucose concentration (156.98±1.75mg / 100ml in the fourth week of infection), cholesterol concentration and total protein concentration (62.11±4.40, 1.92±0.92 mg / 100ml respectively in the fifth week of infection).Also, Uric acid increased significantly (p?0.05) to reach(10.19±0.52mg / 100ml) in the fourth week of infection in comparison of uninfected chickens of the control group. Average weight was showed the significant decrease (p?0.05) of the chickens quantity (368.88±3.01gr in the fourth week of the infection), and an increase the percentage of mortality(23.33±0.23% in the fifth week of infection), addition to the decrease of consuming food by bird (282.8±2.19gr in the fifth week of the infection) in comparison of uninfected chickens of the control group. While the results of local breed chickens in the first experiment were less severity than that with the foreign type (Ross) but the colour of the stool was brown mixed with blood. The Gross Lesions showed pathological changes in the cecum as congestion and bleeding. Moreover, ulcers areas were smaller and less in number in comparison with the infected foreign chickens by the same parasite. The microscopic pathological changes of E.tenella in the cecum showed hyperplasia in goblet cells and congestion of blood capillaries with less number of stages of the parasite in comparison with the foreign chickens. The hematological parameters showed significant decrease (p?0.05) in Hb concentration and percentage of PCV (7.13±0.31mg/100ml, 21.26±1.82% respectively in the fifth week of infection), while the RBC count was (2.05±0.12 x 106 in the fourth week of infection and significant increased (p?0.05) in WBC count was (30.63±0.38 x 106 the sixth week of infection) in comparison with the chickens of the control group. The biochemical parameters of blood serum showed the significant decrease (p?0.05) in glucose concentration (169.60±2.16mg/100ml in the fifth week of infection), cholesterol concentration and total protein concentration (70.89±2.01, 2.25±0.39mg/100ml respectively in the fourth week of infection). Uric acid increased significantly (p?0.05) to reach (7.62±0.90mg/100ml) in the fifth week of infection in comparison with the control group. Average of the weight was significant decrease (p?0.05) (190.28±3.81gm), high increase in the average of mortality (10±0.20%), and high decrease in the consuming food average (413.4±3.91gr) in the fourth week of infection in comparison with the uninfected control group. The second experiment of the foreign chicken which infected experimentally by E.maxima showed asymptoms and clinical signs were nearly similar in the foreign chickens that infected with E.tenella, but mild in severity is average. The symptoms include fatigue, fallen wings, loss of appetite, mucus diarhea mixed with blood. The Gross Lesions showed severe changes in the infected part of intestine as congestion and filling of intestine with mucous secretion of bad odour. While the microscopic pathological changes showed the tissues section of intestine were damaged, necrosis of intestine villi due to the large number of different stages of the parasite with hyperplasia of goblet cells. The hematological parameters showed significanty decrease (p?0.05) in Hb concentration, percentage of PCV and RBC count (7.55±0.61mg/100ml, 23.62±0.81% and 2.08±0.10x106 in the fourth week of infection) and significant increased (p?0.05)in WBC count (31.26±0.63x106 in the seventh week of infection) in comparison with the uninfection control group. The biochemical parameters of blood serum showed that there was the significant decrease (p?0.05) in glucose concentration (164.86±2.11 mg /100ml in the fifth week of infection), cholestrol concentration and total protein (77.14± 3.38, 2.24±0.36 mg/100ml) and significant increased (p?0.05) in Uric acid concentration (8.20±0.79mg/100ml) in the fourth week of infection in comparison to the control group. The results of productive characteristics refered to significant decrease(p?0.05) in the weight of chickens (479.28±0.23gr) and significant increase (p?0.05) in mortality (10±0.11%) during the fifth week of infection. Also, there was significant decrease (p?0.05) in the consumed food by birds (368.5±2.10gr) during the fourth week of infection in comparison to the chicken of the control group. While the results of local breed chicken in the second experiment, the symptoms and clinical signs showed no sign of disease, and the chickens were active in spite of presence of infection and the releasing of Oocysts. The Gross Lesions showed the inflammation and congestion, onlargment of the infected part of small intestine, little mucous and liquid inside the lumen.As far as microscopic changes are concerned, the tissue examination showed some necrosis and damage of the villi ends and an increase in the size of the goblet cells. Hematological parameters showed to the significant decrease (p?0.05) in Hb concentration and percentage of PCV (7.86±0.45 mg/100ml, 23.60±0.53% respectively during the fifth week of infection), RBC count (2.10±0.13 x 106 in the fourth week of infection) and significant increased (p?0.05) in WBC count (32.98±0.58 x 106 during the sixth week of infection) in comparison with the control group. The biochemical parameters of blood serum showed that there was the significant decrease (p?0.05)in glucose concentration and cholestrol concentration (170.60 ±2.01, 79.70±2.69 mg/100ml respectively in the fourth week of infection), total protein concentration (2.42±0.31mg/100ml in the fifth week of infection) and significant increased (p?0.05) in Uric acid concentration (6.52±0.82mg/100ml in the fourth week of infection) in comparison to the uninfection control group. Average of the weight referred to significant decrease (p?0.05) of chickens (213.16±3.12 gr) and consuming food (481±3.21 gr) during the fourth week of infection.While there were no differnces in the percentage of mortality comparison with the uninfected chicken of the control group. Also, the results of the number of released oocysts showed significant increase (p?0.05)in number of released oocysts with stool by infected foreign ckicken(Ross) in comparison with the local breed chicken which infected by the same parasite.Also, the number of the dropped oocysts of E.tenella were higher than that of E.maxima.

Abstract: اجريت الدراسة الحالية في محافظة ديالى اذ تم جمع 100 عينة من اشخاص مصابين وغير مصابين بداء الاكياس المائية للفترة من 2013/10/1 الى 2014/8/10 من مناطق مختلفة تابعة لمحافظة ديالى والتي شملت (حمرين، المقدادية، قزانية، بعقوبة)، وقد توزعت العينات بواقع 54 من ا | The present study was carried out in Diyala province during the period from 1/10/2013 to 01/08/2014 in different areas including : Hamrin, Muqdadiyah, Kasaniya, and Baquba.Blood samples were collected from one hundred individuals who are at risk of hydatid cyst infection (veterinarians, shepherds, farmers, butchers and housewives).The diagnosis of hydatid cyst infection was carried out by Echinococcus IgG ELISA kit. It was shown that the total rate of infection was 16% (6% for male, and 10% for female). The study revealed that the highest percentage of infection was in individual live in urban compared with those who live in rural area.The mean concentrations of antioxidants ; glutathion, catalase and superoxide dismutase were measured in addition to measure the mean concentration of the oxidants.The results showed the presence of malondialdehyde in the serum of studied individuals. The results showed a decrease in the level of glutathion catalase and super oxide dismutase in infected individuals (0.0048±0.0596mmol/L, 0.0220±0.0260mmol/L, 0.0024±0.04430 mmol/L, respectively) compared with non - infected individuals (0.0237±0.2719mmol/L, 0.0024±0.0879mmol/L, 0.0428±0.3069mmol/L, respectively) while there was an increase in concentration of malondialdehyde (0.2245±2.915mmol/L) compared with non - infected (0.025±0.8042mmol/L). There was no significant differences in the concentrations of all these parameters according to age, sex and location of the cysts. The results showed that there was no correlation between each of catalase and superoxide dismutase and the malondialdehyde whil there was a negative correlation between glutathion and malondialdehyde. The study concludes that the infection of hydatid cyst leads to a decrease in antioxidants and to an increase in oxidants which may indicate that there was a damage caused by tissue infection.

Abstract: This study was conducted on the 1350 stool samples from diarrhea - suffering patients in three provinces of middle Euphrates region : Karbala, Babel and Al - Najaf (450 samples in each province). Patients ranged in age from 1 to more than 60 years and from both sexes and different regions who were attended to some hospitals, dispensaries and private laboratories in these provinces during the period from the first of May 2013 till the end of April 2014. All collected fresh samples were examined microscopically by wet - mounts method for G. l a mbl i a and E n ta m oeba histolytica detection One third of positive samples in microscopic examination (which was selected to be representative for all positive samples) from each province and ten of negative one as control group were submitted to the nucleic acid (DNA) extraction. Molecular diagnosis of G. l ambl i a and E. h i s to l yti ca were performed using PCR reaction with amplification of the 532 - bp and 355 - bp fragments from the internal transcribed spacer region1 ITS1 for each parasite respectively. The eluted DNA of each positive sample in ITS1 test with its specific primer was also submitted to a traditional PCR and RT - PCR techniques for detection two genes in G. l a m b l ia { Glycoprotein A Repetitions Predominant (GARP) and Adenosine Triphosphate Guanine Tri Phosphate (ATP/GTP) } and two genes in E. histolytica {Acetatekinase (ACK) and Methionine GammaLyase (MGL)} using PCR and RT - PCR techniques. Five positive PCR products in ITS1 test of G. la m blia were used for sequencing. Based on the results of this study, microscopic examination showed that the total percentages of infection with G. l am bl ia were (14.7, 17.3, 16) % and with E. histolytica were (15.1, 13.3, 16.7) % in Karbala, Babel PDF created with pdfFactory Pro trial version www.pdffactory.comand Al - Najaf respectively. The infection with G. l am bli a and E. histolytica was more frequent in males than in females and the prevalence of both parasites in rural areas was higher than the urban areas P < 0.05 in all studied provinces. The highest incidence of infection with G. lamblia occurred in age group 11 - 20 years (P < 0.01) and that with E. histolytica occurred in age group (1 - 10) years (P < 0.05) in all studied provinces. This study was revealed uneven percentages of infection with both parasites during different months of a year (P < 0.01), the highest rate of infection with G. lamb l ia and E. h i s t o l y ti ca were in summer. For the molecular diagnosis of G. l a mbl ia and E. hi s t ol y t i ca, using PCR technique, the prevalence of G. l amb l ia and E. his t o l y ti c a in middle Euphrates region were found to be 14.9 % and 12.8 % respectively. The infection with G. l a m b lia and E. hi stol y t i c a was more frequent in male (62.7, 63.8) % than in female (37.3, 36.2)%, the prevalence of the parasites in rural area (67.2, 69.0)% was higher than the urban area (32.8, 31.0) %, the highest incidence of infection occurred in age groups 1120 and 1 - 10 years with the percentages of (28.4, 29.3) %, the highest rates of infection were in August (20.9%) and July (19.0%) respectively. Significant differences were found between the rate of infection with both G. l a m bl i a and E. hi stol y t i ca and the different parameters (gender, residence, age gropes and months of a year). The results of detection the gens (GARP, ATP/GTP, ACK, MGL) by using PCR technique showed that the total percentages of positive samples were (55.0, 70.0, 45.0, 75.0) %, (62.5, 79.2, 47.0, 70.6) % and (65.2, 73.9, 61.9, 71.4) % in samples of Karbala, Babel and Al - Najaf respectively while those percentages by using RT - PCR were (60.0, 80.0, 50.0, 80.0) %, (66.7, 83.3, 58.8, 82.4) % and (65.2, 78.3, 66.7, 71.4) % respectively. For the detection of genes in G. l am bl ia, sensitivities of 91.8 % and 97.8 % and specificities of 94.6 % and PDF created with pdfFactory Pro trial version www.pdffactory.com81.4% for PCR and RT - PCR respectively were observed when compared to each others, While Sensitivities of 89.9 % and 98.6% and specificities of 97.3 % and 81.8 % for PCR and RT - PCR respectively for the detection of genes in E. hi sto l y t i c a were observed when compared to each others. Multiple sequence alignment analysis and phylogenetic analysis results of this study demonstrated that the G. l ambl ia in Middle Euphrates region - Iraq isolates had nucleotide homology sequence identity percent of 99% with Giardia intestin a l i s (AF199448.1) Australia isolate and with USA isolate Giardia microti

Abstract: The present study aimed to investigate of Cryptosporidiosis in some wild and domestic birds, and study some concerned aspect of it such as : Host specificity for Cryptosporidium spp., histo - pathological changes which parasite produced it and molecular analysis for this species. To attainment this purpose we applied our study in three major parts : The First part : Investigation of Cryptosporidium in birdsA total of 236 birds were collected from different regions of Al - Diwaniya province between May 2013 to June 2014, Birds included six species which are : 22 sample from Turkey (Meleagris gallopova), 60 from Quail (Coturnix coturnix) , 40 from Domestic chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus), 52 from Caged chicken(Gallus gallus), 32 from Common duck (Anas platyrhynchos) and 30 from Feral pigeon (Columba livia). Fecal and bile samples which took from birds were examined by used hot modified Zeihl - Nelseen stain.Results revealed that the birds were infected with two types of Cryptosporidiosis : Intestinal and Biliary Cryptosporidiosis (58.1% and 12.7% respectively).Our study recorded four species belong to Cryptosporidium be responsible for intestinal type which are : C.parvum, C.meleagridis, C.baileyi and C.galli, While just the first three species of them were be responsible for biliary type.Also results showed that no significant difference according to gender of birds in infection with two types of Cryptosporidiosis, while showed a significant difference to study's months in infection, the highest ratio of Intestinal type was in March and April (87.5% and 89.3% respectively) and the lower ratio was in July, it reached 27.8% ; While the highest ratio of biliary type was in April, it reached 39.3%.Also results revealed that all cases of Biliary type were light infection, while the severity of infection with Intestinal type was between heavy and light infection. Quail birds showed a significant difference in severity infection compared with other birds, it was higher in quail which reached 60.9% and lower in common duck(30.0%) and there was no heavy infection in feral pigeon. when reading of preparation histological sections from : intestinal, fabricious bursa and bile sac, the results showed a histological changes that parasite induced it which included : hyperplasia in infection's regions, necrosis and destroyed in infected cells with infiltration of inflammation cells.The second part : Experimental studyTo test a host specificity and to know how incidence of cross transmission of Cryptosporidium species which isolated from birds to human, therefore the laboratory mice were dosage with the four species of parasite and then we determinate of : susceptible of age group to infection, prepatent period and histological changes in experimentally infected mice.Result showed that cross transmission could happened for three species of Cryptosporidium that infected birds to lab. mice which are : C.parvum, C.meleagridis and C.baileyi with total ratio 30% and showed a significant difference compared with control group, and the results recorded a mortality ratio in infected mice (7.5%).The probability of mammalian infection by Cryptosporidium spp. which isolated from birds in our study represent the first record in Iraq. C.parvum and C.meleagridis showed loss of host specificity whereas C.baileyi was opportunist in his ability to infect another host beside their ordinary host (birds), while C.galli showed a high specificity for its host.The third part : Molecular studyThis part in our study studied for the first time in Iraq, which contains the diagnosis of Cryptosporidium species that infected birds and their genetic analysis through : DNA sequence analysis of species by used small subunit ribosomal RNA gene (18SrRNA), read of phylogenetic tree of these species and do comparison among genetic trees according to : original host (birds), experimental host (infected mice) and to their parasitic site in their ordinary host.The phylogenic tree of parasite species was drown by used MEGA6 program, the results of neighboring tree revealed two major branches : First branch include C.galli while the second branch include the other three species. Also genetic tree showed presence of two difference strains of C.parvum can infected the birds with neighboring ratio between them reached to 82% and the same thing was found for C.meleagridis but with neighboring ratio reached to 70%.The reading of phylogenetic tree showed that all species of studied birds can infection with isolated Cryptosporidium species excepting C.galli which just isolate from domestic chicken and C.meleagridis which found parasite only in turkey and quail.Results of genetic analysis of neighboring tree among species according to parasitic sites in infected birds showed similarity between species which isolated from fecal and bile, which are : C.parvum, C.meleagridis and C.baileyi, this result corroborate the ability of these species to transfer their infection from intestine to bile sac.The results of comparative concerned with isolated species from infected mice's fecal(experimental host) and from birds' fecal (ordinary host), results showed similarity among three species which isolated from mice's fecal with their analogous species isolated from birds' fecal which are : C.parvum, C.meleagridis and C.baileyi, while C.galli doesn't have ability to infect mice which dosage it.Finally the result of this study give evidence to ability of cross transmission for these three species from the class : Aves to the class : Mammalian, So this fact give to us a hygienic indication for probability of human infection with these species.

Abstract: لقد تم تحديد المحتوى الفينولي الكلي للمركبات الفينولية Total phenolic content والفعالية المضادة للاكسدة Antioxidant activity لمخلفات نوعين من العنب (Vitis vinifera) (ديس العنز والشدة السوداء) التي تم الحصول عليها بعد استخلاص عصير العنب وهي القشور والبذور | The total phenolic contents (TPC) and the antioxidant activity of the pomaces and their components (seeds and peels) of two Iraqi grape cultivars (Shadda Black and Des - Alanez) were determined. Four types of solvents were used in the extraction in order to select the best way of extraction of the phenolic compounds. In addition, the insecticidal activity of the water extracts of the pomaces, seeds and peels against different stages of the life cycle of housefly, Musca domestica, was evaluated via studying the effects of the water extracts on egg hatching, the development of the first instar (L1) larvae into pupae and adult flies, and on the viability of the third instar (L3) larvae and pupae. The results of the present study showed that the extracts prepared in the 5% HCl solutions contained the highest (P<0.05) amounts of phenolic compounds followed by those prepared in hdyro - ethanolic solutions (50% with water, v/v), then the extracts prepared in boiling distilled water, while those prepared in normal distilled water (at room temperature) showed the lowest amounts of phenolic compounds. A similar trend of activity was observed for the antioxidant activity via the ability to scavenge the synthetic free radical (2, 2 - diphenyl - 1 - picrylhydrazyl; DPPH). This correlation between the total phenolic contents of the grape pomaces, seeds, and peels and their antioxidant activities clearly indicates that the phenolic compounds are the main contributors for the antioxidant activity. It is important to mention that the TPC of the pomaces, seeds, and peels of the Des - Alanez cultivar were significantly higher (P<0.05 - 0.001) than their counterparts of the Shadda cultivar.The insecticidal activity was evidenced by the ability of the water (boiling) extracts of the pomaces, seeds, and peels of the two cultivars to inhibit the hatching of the housefly eggs at very low concentrations. At 150 microgram (µg)/ml, the crude water extracts from the powdered pomaces, seeds, and peels were able to inhibit completely the hatching of the eggs (100% inhibition) when compared with the eggs in the control group (exposed to water only). The water extracts of the pomaces, seeds, and peels of the two cultivars showed inhibitory effects against the viability of the L3 larvae as evidenced by their ability to paralyze or kill the larvae and this ability increases significantly with increasing the exposure time (P< 0.05) and concentration (P< 0.05). The results also revealed that the ability of extracts of the seeds of the two cultivars to paralyze or kill the L3 larvae was significantly higher (P< 0.5 - 0.001) than the extracts of the pomaces and peels, especially at the higher concentrations.The results of the current study also showed the capacity of the water extracts of pomaces, seeds, and peels of the two cultivars to affect the development of pupae into adult flies and this capacity depends on the exposure time and the by - product and increases significantly (P< 0.05 - 0.001) with increasing the exposure time. Moreover, the ability of the seeds extracts from both cultivars to inhibit the transformation of the pupae into adult flies was significantly higher (P< 0.001) than the ability of the extracts of the pomaces and peels, and at all the exposure times.Concerning the results of the last series of the laboratory experiments which are considered the most important experiments in this study because they simulate field conditions, two treatment placement locations were selected, top of the manure and bottom of manure (under about 5 cm of manure). For top treatment, 50 grams of manure were placed in the plastic cup and then 5% or 10% of the powdered pomaces, seeds or peels were sprinkled on the top of the manure. For bottom treatment, the same amounts of powdered by - products were sprinkled on the bottom of the cup and then 50 g of manure were added to the cup. A similar quantity of untreated manure was used as a control. The results of these experiments showed that the powdered pomaces, seeds, and peels have the ability to inhibit the development of the larvae into pupae and adult flies and this ability depends on the location of the products and the grape cultivar. The results also revealed that the addition of the powdered materials of both cultivars on top of the manure inhibited significantly more (P<0.05 - 0.001) L1 larvae from reaching the pupa and adult stages in comparison with their counterparts which had been added at the bottom of the manure. Contrary to our expectations, the powdered pomaces, seeds and peels of both cultivars showed inhibitory effect against the L1 larvae when added on bottom of the manure which may indicate that the phenolic compounds present in the powdered materials can mix and bind with the ingredients of the powdered by - products and affect the growth and development of the larvae into pupae and adult flies.It can be concluded that the grape pomaces and their ingredients, which are usually thrown in the bin, represent very good sources for phenolic compounds that have the ability to scavenge the free radicals and have insecticidal activity against different stages of the housefly, Musca domestica.

Abstract: اجريت الدراسة الحالية في محافظة النجف في الفترة الممتدة مابين شباط 2012 لغاية تشرين الثاني 2013 في العيادة الاستشارية للجلدية في مدينة الصدر الطبية وكليتي العلوم والتربية للبنات في جامعة الكوفة. كان عدد المصابين بالجرب الذين ارتادوا العيادة الاستشارية لل | The present study was carried out in Najaf governorate, during the period from February 2012 till November 2013 in Dermatology Outpatient Clinic in Al - Sader Medical City, College of Science and College of Education for Girls in Kufa University. The number of scabietic patients who attended the outpatient clinic during February to November 2012 were 300 (168 males and 132 females). Their ages ranged from 10 to 65 years. They were included to show the prevalence of scabies. Sixty scabietic patients (out of 300 patients) who did not have allergic diseases, helminthic infections, previous attack with scabies, and/or getting any antihistamines drugs were included for human IL - 1?, TNF - ?, IL - 4, IL - 5 and total IgE assays using ELISA technique; superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity assay and eosinophils(%). These assays were applied on scabietic patients (who were divided according to onset of symptoms or duration of scabies symptoms into early and late scabietic patients) as well as healthy controls.Also Sarcoptes scabiei mite proteins were extracted. Then heat stable mite proteins concentration was determined by Bradford’s method. SDS - Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS - PAGE) analysis was used. The activity of mite allergens was assayed by skin prick test (SPT) in 10 scabietic patients and 5 controls with 1.2 ?g/ml and 2.4 ?g/ml. House dust mite (HDM) antigens were skin prick tested in patients with scabies and controls.The prevalence of scabies in current study constituted 6.54% from all the dermatoses which attended the clinic. The males represented 56% and females were 44%. The age group (10 - 19) years was the highest prevalence of scabies (41.7%). Early scabietic patients represented 72% versus late scabietic patients were 28%. The results revealed that a highly significant elevation (p< 0.001) in serum cytokines (IL - 1?, TNF - ?, IL - 4 and IL - 5) as well as IgE, SOD and eosinophils (%) in the two groups of scabietic patients in comparison to the controls.Results of correlation demonstrated that IgE, SOD and eosinophils (%) were positively and significantly correlated (p< 0.001) with the studied cytokines in early, late scabietic and control groups. IgE was positively correlated with IL - 1?, TNF - ?, IL - 4 and IL - 5 in early scabietic patients, whereas, it had negative correlation with IL - 1?, TNF - ?, and positive correlation with IL - 4 and IL - 5 in late ones. SOD showed negative correlation with IL - 1? and TNF - ?, and positive correlation appeared with IL - 4 and IL - 5 in both scabietic patients. Eosinophils (%) were positively correlated with all the studied cytokines in two groups of scabietic patients.The results also revealed that SDS - PAGE profile of the parasite heat stable proteins consisted of protein bands with molecular weights ranged from less than 10 to over than 100 kDa. Skin test demonstrated that (7/10, 70%) and (8/10, 80%) of scabietic patients had a positivity against 1.2 ?g/ml and 2.4 ?g/ml of sarcoptic mite extracts, respectively when prick tested. HDM extract was found to be positive in (4/10, 40%) of scabietic patients; while controls revealed negative result.It can be concluded that scabies affect TH1 and TH2 immune response as well as SOD activity and eosinophils. Sarcoptic proteins contain heat stable allergens which able to cause immediate type - 1 hypersensitivity when 1.2?g/ml of mite protein is skin prick tested, and there is a cross reactivity between Sarcoptes scabiei and HDM allergens

A sample of 945 fish of Barbus grypus and Liza abu has been examined. It was found that 205 of the Barbus grypus fish and 344 of the Liza abu were infected with parasitic intestinal worms. Some parasitic intestinal worms have been detected such as the Neoechinorynchus iraqensis in both fish types. The female paulisentus in Barbus grypus, Bothriocephalus acheilognathi were found in both Barbus grypus, Liza abu and the larva of Contracaecum spp was seen in the Liza abu and Barbus grypus type. In Diwaniya river had high infection of both fish types was 61.31%. The Barbus grypus fish were recorded with 70.11% while the Liza abu fish infection was 57.21%.. In Hamza river the total percentage of infection was 56.79 % in both types. The Liza abu infection in the four parts of Diwaniya as 56.30%. In September the infection percentage was higher by 63.21% in the two kinds of fish. while in February, December the infection rate was as low as 50%. It was also found that length categories of (26 - 24.1)cm of Barbus grypus had high percentage of 67.16%, while the length category (28 - 26.1) cm suffered 64.47% infection with intestinal worms in the length category (> - 30.1) was 22.22%.As for the Liza abu it had a high percentage of infection in length category (12 - 10.1) cm, the percentage was 67.53% and dropped to 46.53% in length category (8 - 6)cm.The present study has discovered many pathological changes (visable and microscopic)caused by the intestinal worms, Among the visable changes was embolism and bleeding of the walls of the infected intestinal microscopic changes included an increase in the phlogistic and phagocytic cell and ruining of the internal tissue lining the intestines and atrophy villi.Eight heavy metals were measured.They included Cadmium, Lead, Zinc, Nickel, Copper, Manganese, Mercuryand Chromiumby means of an atomic absorption spectrophotometer tissues from the a forementioned types of fish were measured for these heavy metals these tissues were from the liver, muscles, gills, two kinds of intestinal worms (Cestode and Nematode) were measured also water and sediments (deposits) from four districts of Diwaniya throughout the year, Cadmium registered high concentrations in autumn (12.67) Mg/ gm in the liver of the Barbus grypus. lower concentrations of Cadmium were registered in Winter (1.30) Mg/ gm in the liver of Liza abu.The Barbus grypus livers had high concentrations of lead in autumn (21.03) Mg/ gm in Hamza rivers, where as gills of the Liza abu registered lower concentrations(6.43) Mg/gm in spring.The livers of the Barbus grypus registered high concentrations of zine in autumn which where (32.27)Mg/ gm in Hamza river. Shamiya river they dropped to 21.17 Mg/ gm in spring, It was observed that Nickel had high concentrations in the livers of both fish types, The highest of which was in autumn, the the Hamza river had the highest concentrations in autumn which were (29.17, 28.63, 27.67) Mg/gm.In spring the nickel concentrations were low in the gills of the Liza abu11.10 Mg/ gm in Shamiya river, The livers of the Barbus grypus had the most concentrations of copper which reached 2.02 Mg/ gm while livers of the Liza abu had 1.92 Mg/ gm concentrations in autumn in Hamza river.Manganese showed low concentrations in the Liza abu gills in winter and spring they ranged (1.67, 1.73) in Shamiya river, manganese concentrations increased in autumn and summer to reach (14.83, 10.07) Mg/ gm in the Liza abu liver and (15.13, 10.57) Mg/ gm in the muscles of the Barbus grypus in Hamza river, Marcury had the lowest concentrations 24.37 Mg/ gm in the gills of Liza abu in Afaq river, It was observed that the livers of the Barbus grypus were more vulnerable, the highest concentrations was registered 49.97 Mg/ gm in Hamza river followed by Diwaniya which registered 48.97 Mg/m in autumn. Chromium registered lowest concentrations compared to the other metals,.cestodes isolated from the Barbus grypus registered high of mercury concentrations that reached 37.667 and 37.300 Mg/ gm in Hamza and Diwaniya rivers, chrome concentrations was low in the tape worms 0.166 Mg/ gm while nematodes, the concentrations was 0.157 Mg/ gm in Shamiya river.cestoda and nematodais isolated from the intestines of Liza abu registered high concentrations in autumn, cestoda had the most of the concentrations of heavy metals, Mercury and nickel had high concentrations of (35.783, 25.840) Mg/gm, copper and chrome had lower concentrations(1.881, 0.174) Mg/gm inHamza river, nematode registered high concentrations that reached 33.994 Mg/ gm in mercury in Hamza river.As for the rivers sediments Autumn was the most effected by heavy metals for the sediments in Hamza river had high concentrations in Manganese, mercury, and chrome (367, 376.97, 290.93) Mg/ gm respectively while the lowest concentrations was for copper 22.53 Microgram/gram in Shamiya river in spring. The rivers water registered low concentrations of heavy metals in spring, The Shamiya river had low concentrations of lead and cadmium (80.57, 54.60) Mg/gm, autumn registered higher concentrations compared to spring where the highest concentration of manganese and Copper was (512.37, 442.83) Mg / gm in Hamza river.

Abstract: هدفت الدراسة الحالية الى اثبات العلاقة بين الاصابة بداء المقوسات وحالات ضعف الخصوبة عند الذكور من خلال دراسة التغيرات في المعايير التكاثرية والهرمونات التكاثرية والتغيرات المرضية النسجية للحيوانات المصابة تجريبا بطفيلي المقوسة الكوندية Toxoplasma gondii, | The present study aimed to demonstrate the relationship between toxoplasmosis and cases of low fertility in males by examining changes in reproductive parameters, reproductive hormones and histopathological changes of experimentally infected rats, the study also aimed to prove the case of the venereal transmission of parasite from male to female and vice versa. The study carried out in three phases, the first phase includes determining the infection rate of the parasite for men who suffer from low fertility rate, as it has been serologically detecting the presence of IgG antibodies to the parasite by ELISA technique in the laboratory of parasites / College of Veterinary Medicine in 46 serum samples of blood for men attend to the Center for Infertility Research embryos of the Faculty of Medicine / University of Al - Nahrain and Al - Zahra Hospital and particular laboratories in Wasit province, who proved to have a laboratory case of weakness in reproductive parameters of semen in the rate of infection was 34.78%, then was to investigate the level of reproductive hormones (testosterone, follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone), it was the men who had lower levels of these hormones 58.33% and 50% and 1.664%, respectively. The second phase included the parasite Toxoplasma gondii isolated from placental samples of aborted women and brain samples of local chicken after confirming the presence of the parasite in those samples by impression smear, As to isolate the parasite the samples was catting and grinding, filtered and centrifugation after it was suspended in physiological solution at three times.These isolates were used for experimental infection in 60 of the male albino rats norvegicus Rattus age (60_70) days and an average of weights 200_250 grams injected each of them within the peritoneum 0.3ml each animal and containing 100 cysts, 30 of which form the suspension of placenta and 30 from the suspension brain of local chicken in rats experimental infection, injection of 10 for each of the male rats and 10 female rats by suspension of placenta for experimental infection and after seven weeks of infection, put 10 healthy females with males infected experimentally and 10 healthy males with infected female for the purpose of mating to ensure for the transition infection of the parasite sexually and then confirm infection by using the direct smear (impression) and the Real - Time polymerase chain reaction technique and histological sections in the experience of experimental infection and transitional infection of parasite. It emerged the effective of infection on reproductive parameters in experimentally infected rats as negative recorded changes represented in the weights of reproductive organs, sperm concentration, motility, viability and the percentage of abnormalities compared with control group and in significant differences in 0.05 except the sperm motility which recorded significant differences in animals injected with suspension of brain domestic chicken and no significant differences in animals injected with suspension of placenta, also recorded the absence of sperm in the semen of infected rats by 40% in each of the animals that were injected placenta and injected samples of the brain of domestic chicken, as it was for the transmission of the infection to the male effect on reproductive parameters sperm in all reproductive parameters in study and significant difference for all parameters except the sperm motility compared with control group in significant differences in 0.05.With regard to the rates of sex hormones (LH, FSH, T) has recorded a significant decrease of the animals experimentally infection, which amounted to 4.588, 4.648, 6.657, either male rats venereal infected there was a decrease in the levels of hormones three significant differences and rates of 4.762, 5.644, 2.21, respectively, compared with control group which recorded 10.514, 12.210, 10.576, respectively, as rates were hormones low for normal level in females venereal infected except hormone LH as record rate 8.132 higher than the average private control group, which amounted to 5.335, as the rates of hormone (FSH, T) for females venereal infected 2.901, 5.596, respectively, compared to the control group, which recorded 4.71, 1.79, respectively.The initial diagnosis of the infection by using the impression smear method and its emphasis by molecular diagnosis REALTIME PCR technique, as was the incidence100% of the first method, either way in the second technique in rats injected with Suspension parasite of placenta 90% while it was 100% in rats injected parasite brain domestic chicken, the percentage of infection was varied in organs as recorded lowest infection in the first group in the liver and the testis was 20% either the highest percentage recorded in the semen and 90% either in brain samples was 26%, while the lowest infection for the second group it was 20% in the liver, brain and testis either the highest proportion it was 100% of the semen, and whend vice versa, in 100% for both groups by imprassion smear method, either way RT.PCR was recorded the percentage of infection in uninfected females which mated with infected males 100% divided by the organs as the lowest infection recorded in the uterus was 30% and the highest rate of infection was in the liver, brain was 100% either ovary was the presence of parasite in which 60%, while the incidence of total uninfected male who have been mated experimentally infected female100% divided by the organs as the highest rate of infection was in semen was 100% and either in the liver there have been no cases were positive remember and so the infection was 0% either infection rates recorded for the tissue of the brain and testis were 40%, 50%, respectively, either with regard to prove the existence of the parasite, depending on tissue sections of these tissues have been diagnosed with the parasite in addition to histological pathological changes occur where the male rats experimentally infected and all of the male and female in experience. As the percentage of pregnancies in the two groups of animals mating 35%, the percentage of infection in newborn brain has reached100%, which proves the case of vertical transmission of the parasite for newborns of infected mother parasite

Abstract: اجريت هذه الدراسة للمدة من بداية اذار 2014 والى نهاية ايلول 2014 وشملت على مراجعين مستشفى الديوانية العام ومستشفى النسائية والاطفال في محافظة القادسية ومختبرات التحليل الاهلية في المحافظة, وقد تم فحص679 عينة براز باستخدام طريقة المسحة المباشرة لمختلف الفئ | This study has been conducted for the period from the first of March 2014 until September 2014 and included the auditors to Diwaniya General Hospital and Women's Hospital and children in the province of Diwaniya and civil analytical laboratories in the province. A sample of 679 of auditors' stool have been examined by using the direct swab from different age groups and both sexes. The study shows that 61.26% of people have been infected by screened amoeba parasite. Real time PCR was used in this study to diagnose Amoeba species in 200 samples. Result shows that Entamoeba histolytica had highest percentage of incident followed by Entamoeba dispar then Entamoeba moshkoviskii, which were 74 %, 26 %, and 7 % respectively.Statistical level of ?=0.05presents significant differences between then. Percentage of positive molecular test samples was higher than the negative ones; they were 88% and 12%. Molecular diagnoses were used in this study. E. histolytica had highest individual incident followed by E.disbar then E. moshkoviskii : 56% 10%, and 1% respectively. Using significant level of 0.05, significant differences were appeared. Rates of mixed infections of E. histolytica + E. dispar followed by E. moshkoviskii + histolytica then E. moshkoviskii + E. dispar, which were 14%, 4%, and 2% respectively. Statistics shows significant differences between them at ? =0.05. Symptoms of individual incident of the three Amoeba sorts were observed and recorded. Patients who had E. histolytica, severed from acute diarrhea that ranged between mucous and watery texture, which its color contrast between brown and reddish brown. They had bloody diarrhea and abdominal pain that ranged from severe to moderate colic. They had also slight temperature increase and weight loss. For those who had E.disbar, abdominal pain and frequent pale yellow diarrhea that semi - aqueous texture were recorded. Symptoms of : moderate yellowish brown snotty diarrhea, abdominal pain and, weight loss were observed for those who had E. moshkoviskii. R.T.PCR (Taqman Probe) was used to isolate samples and to investigate the three pathogenic virulence genes, which are Cystiene Proteinase, Amebopore, and Gal/Gal Nac Lectin. This was done in each of Amoeba’s species using R.T.PCR (Syber Green). According to it, E. histolytica possesses Cystiene Proteinase 1, Amebopore, and Gal/Gal Nac Lectin at 86.6%, 80.35%, and 42.8% respectively. Non - significant differences were found at ? =0.05 between them. For E.disbar, result shows existence of the same pathogenic virulence genes at percentages of 65%, 45%, and 20% respectively. Result presents significant differences among percentage of genes isolation for the pathogenic virulence factors at ? =0.05. E. moshkoviskii had these three pathogenic virulence genes at percentage of 33.3% by isolating the virulence genes except Gal/Gal Nac Lactin, there were significant differences among them at ? =0.05. This study was conducted to understand the molecular characterization confirmatory of the three types of insulators parasite using traditional enzyme chain polymerize reaction as a first stage to investigate the 18s ribosomal RNA covenantal. It represents personal heritage of the three types of amoeba. Depending on the same gene, developed tree were analyzed for Amoeba’s species using method of Neighber - Joining among different groups of the stains for each species separately using MEGA6 program. Knowing convergence rates of the used stains and international isolators from NCBI, Blast program was used. Since there is no study has been done to study nitrogenous bases sequence for these three species, samples undertook molecular characterization confirmatory was registered in the national data base center (NCBI). International serial numbers were obtained and attached to the dissertation.

The study showed that the rate of infection with E. histolytica / E. dispar was 21.67% (130 of 600). The cystic stages were dominant in infected stool samples which being 53.85% (70 of 130), while the trophozoite stage was 15.38 % (20 of 130). The epidemiological survey based on direct stool examination showed the rate of infection among females was 23.07% (60 of 260) in comparison with males 20.59% (70 of 340). The highest rate of infection was among the age group 1 - 5 years 25.5% (69 of 270). The highest rate was also in children of illiterate parents 26.1% (68 of 260). The biochemical tests were carried out to estimate serum cholesterol, triglycerides, GOT, GPT, malondialdehyde (MDA) and selenium. The study showed that the level of serum cholesterol, triglycerides, GOT, GPT, malondialdehyde increased in infected patients in comparison with healthy controls, while the study showed decreased selenium concentration in infected patients in comparison with healthy controls. The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was done to estimate serum IgG level for Entamoeba histolytica, the rate of seropositivity for IgG was 21.68% (18 of 83). The rate of IgG in positive sample was 17.73% (7 of 41) while in negative sample was 26.19% (11 of 42).

Abstract: Results of clinical and laboratory examination of 239 cases showed 55 infection cases in Cutaneous Leishmaniasis and in infection proportion reaches at 23.01% out of the total number of the Cutaneous cases which are similar to Leishmaniasis during the months of the study. The Results also showed that the highest infection was recorded between the ages 1 - 10 years old and about 26 cases in 47.27% and between 10 - 20 years old about 17 cases in 30.9% and the lowerest was between 40 - 50 and 70 - 80 years old in one cases in 1.8%. The summit of the disease spread was in February for about 24 cases in 43.63% specially in AL - Hamza AL - Sharqi where the highest number of infection was recorded for about 23 cases in 41.81%. It is followed by AL - Shafiya for 10 cases in 18.18% and the lowerest was AL - Mhannawiya for one case in 1.8%. It has been clear that the number of the multiple epidemics is more than the individual ones in 70.5% while the latter in 29.98% respectively. It was focused on hands and legs in 50.35% and 24.46 %. The tissue test showed thick perspiration in the big infected pharynx and lymphatic cell in addition to the existence of abscess to the smash of the infected cell. Forty nine positive cases were found in 89.09% for the genetic material DNA which is connected with Leishmaniasis by mean of NestedPCR to identify the type results showed 47 samples which is L. major in 95.91% and to get sure by investigating the virulence factor lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan and cysteine protease it was found that all sample were positive in 100% as Leishmania. major. To know the affect of treatment pentostam on these samples, the standard proportion for the genetic patterns was calculated factor lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan and cysteine protease during five week. Results showed that there was a big difference for each gene in a solation during the period of treatment in a level of the possibility of (P?0.05) when used test LSD. and by comparing the three genes it was found that there was a meaningful between cysteine protease and the other two factor lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan and there wasn’t difference between lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan. Hence, it has been clear that the treatment pentostam has a big affect in parasite by its affect on the virulence factors and this explains that possibility of infection may happen again after having the treatment. The skin disease cutaneous Leishmaniasis is considered as one of the endemic parasitic diseases in Iraq. This study aims at identifying its prevalence and specifying the virulence factors in Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in order to define the type of disease reason and the affect of the treatment of Pentostam on the virulence factors lipophosphoglycan, Cysteine protease, proteophosphoglycans by means Real time - PCR

The epidemiologically which is main to determine the rates of infection as registered in some district of Diyala province in according to the age, sex, and the month of the year so according to the environmental conditions : - 7200 samples of blood collected from many different ages persons from different districts in Diyala. (3009 males, 4011 females) are examined. The study shows a positive cases of 607 distributed among the districts including (Jalawlaa, Bani Saa'd, Baladruz, Baquba, Alodeim amd DeliAbbas) these register a highest percentage of infection in Jalawlaa sub - district about 12.8% and less percentage of infection are in Baquba about 1.3% whiel is register highest percentage of in infection were (>1 - 5) years about 13.2% and lower percentage infection (<5 - 10) years wuth rate 2.4% so the groups of ages (25 - 30) years didn't appear any infections. according to the gender the males are high from the females whom effected with this disease the number of males (432) case with rate 71, 1%. The number of infected females about 175 cases with rate 28.8%.while in the month of years were the male infection are a highest infection in January - 2012, but did not register any infection in (June and July). The environmental condition infective in prevalence the disease between the people whom resident the houses which breed the animals inside, the number of infections are 245 cases from 607 positive cases with rate 40.3%. This was the low rate 4.9% from the infected people because of rats in their hoses. which didn't kill them. 2. The comparison of diagnostic methods of clinical test, laboratory test and serological test, with the molecular methods from the direction of sensitivity and specificity, The studies results appeared the importance of clinical test subtle in case of a similar cases depend on the clinical symptoms there are a highest cases from clinical test that the children suffering from liver magle their number are 176 cases the rate 80.36%, but the lowest cases of clinical test are 59.19% whom suffered from a skin pallor and black. The laboratory tests appeared the blood picture through testing the 350cases whom suspicion in their infection with leishmaniasis, the number of whom suffering from the lower of WBC 73 with rate 34.2%, while the low cases are 6 with rate 2.82% from whom suffering from hipper ESR, but the serological test was IFAT, Dipsrtick, spotkala - azor, ELISA, KA tex LATEX. Diagnostic infection leishmaniasis a best in diagnostic disease is dipstick test it's sensitivity are 95%, but it's specificity 100% but the lowest is the test of LATEX, it's sensitivity 75% and specificity 80%.3. The Molecular methods : PCR technique test clear recently the new highest sensitivity in diagnosis when the number of the parasite are a little in the blood in the infections peoples whom choose in random way. when testing 100 samples of DNA from the infection with cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis, the number of infected male are 73, But the number of infected females are 27 with leishmaniasis. and studying the relation between PCR diagnosis according to the sex, age, district and environment condition, so as the recognize between the species of the parasite from the sequence Nitrogen basics with number in each species, (the species are L.donovani, L.infantum, L.tropica, L.major) so recognize the vector insect sand fly Morphology by key classification (ph.alexandri, ph.papatasi Ph.sergentasi, and sqauanlpleuris).

Abstract: بلغ العدد الكلي للعينات التي جمعت وفحصت للفترة من بداية شهر تموز 2007 الى نهاية شهر مايس 2008 (2345) عينة لكلا الجنسين مــن مستشفيات كركوك للتحري عن وبائية طفيلي المشــــــعرات المهبليـــــــــة Trichomonas vaginalis وبعض الجراثيم المسببة للامراض المنقو | A total (2345) specimens were collected & examined from both sexes, from the beginning of July 2007 till the end of May 2008 attending Kirkuk hospitals for epidemiological study of Trichomonas vaginalis & some sexual transmitted microorganisms. The vaginal examinations were done by gynecologist, two high vaginal swabs were taken from (250) women & a cervical swab from some women with vaginal discharge. General urine examination & blood group with Rh factor were performed for each woman with vaginal discharge. Direct microscopic examination, staining & culture of swabs were performed on different methods for diagnosis of Trichomonas vaginalis, followed to diagnose Candida albicans, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia trachomatis & Treponema pallidum as well as some other bacterial groups. The rate of Trichomonas vaginalis was (2.8%) & Neisseria gonorrhoeae (0.8%), while no Chlamydia trachomatis & Treponema pallidum recorded in this study. The highest rate of Trichomonas vaginalis was among the age group between 15 - 29 years (3.6%), the rate of Trichomonas vaginalis infection was higher among illiterate (5.7%) than educated ones. The highest rate of Trichomonas vaginalis was recorded among those with blood group O & Rh (+ve) (3.8%). The same result was found regarding other microorganisms in both sexes. Statistically the results were not significant.The rate of infections in females was higher than males in all infection except Neisseria gonorrhoeae was recorded highest rate in males(35%). The percentage of mixed infections with Trichomonas vaginalis was Candida albicans (1.6%) & B - hemolytic streptococcus (0.4%). The maximum infections rate in vaginal swabs were Staphylococcus aureus (42.3%) & lowest rate of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (2%). Regarding the distribution of microorganisms isolated from urine samples of females suffering from vaginal discharges, the highest rate of infection was Eschirechia coli (22.2%) & lowest rate of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (2%) respectively. The rate of isolated microorganisms from urethral discharge of males were Neisseria gonorrhoeae (35%) & Escherichia coli (5%). Antibiotics Ciprofloxacin & Amikacin showed good inhibition activity against all pathogenic microorganisms. Regarding the effect of different concentration of metronidazole & medical herbs to the Trichomonas vaginalis invitro, metronidazole showed clear effective inhibition at concentration (1.25%) during 24 hours. The inhibitory effect of Zea mays (both alcoholic & watery extractions) was greater than Apium graveolens & Foeniculum vulgare. At concentration (2.5% & 5%) of Zea mays in both extractions was almost identical to metronidazole. Six solvents were used by thin layer chromatography (TLC) in order to separate alcoholic & watery extraction of medical herbs, only three of them A, B & F gave good results in separating herbal extraction with differing in its component. By measuring relative flow rate (Rƒ) of all compounds that separated and determind. The chemical compounds of each herbal extract were established & included alkaloids, flavonieds, amines, pigments, oils, carbohydrates, phenols, purines & tanines.

Abstract: تسلط الدراسة الحالية الضوء على تشخيص وتحديد نسبة الاصابة بطفيلي الاميبا المرضية المتمثلة بالاميبا الحالة للنسج Entamoeba histolytica وتمييزها عن الاميبا غير المرضية المتمثلة بالاميبا المتغايرة Entamoeba dispar اللتين تتمايزان بشكلهما المتماثل في كلا الطور | This study sheds light on the determination and diagnose of the percentage of infection of like Entamoeba histolytica and differentiate it from the non pathogenic Entamoeba dispar that were morphologically identical in both cysts and trophozoite phase in two different groups : the first group includes 50 stool samples of patients suffering from diarrhea and abdominal pain (symptomatic group) while the second group includes 95 stool samples of patients not suffering from diarrhea and abdominal pain (Asymptomatic group).In addition to that, 20 stool samples were collected from healthy individuals as a control these samples were collected patients of AL - Zafaranyia General Hospital and AL - Alwyia Childhood Teaching Hospital in Baghdad from July, 2011 to May, 2012.These samples belong to different ages (1 year - < 50 years) of different sexes (males and females). Entamoeba samples were diagnosed by using two methods : the first one is the wet mount as a General Stool Examination(GSE) after macroscopic examination for sample and classifying them according to their consistency (solid, semisolid and liquid) and color (brown and yellow) and presence of blood and mucous in addition to diagnosing them microscopically to detect the presence of pus cells and both phases trophozoite and cyst for Entamoeba histolytica.While the second method that was depended in diagnosis is duplex polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) by using two pairs of genes for detection of their amplification in DNA sample isolated from stool. The first pair is cystein proteinase which represents one of virulent factors in Entamoeba histolytica parasite as a tissue invader. The second pair encodes the surface antigen present on the surfaces of both parasites E. histolytica and E. dispar. It is represented by Actin gene (Act). The results of the wet mount showed that in percentage of infection of both species (E.histolytica/E.dispar) the (54%) of patient symptom and (34.37%) patient a symptom.While results of the specificity and sensitivity showed that in positive sample wet mount negative PCR while negative sample wet mount showed that positive PCR and higher percentage of infection the Entamoeba dispar. While the results of the dPCR showed that in spite of the presence of both species Entamoeba pathogenic (Entamoeba histolytica) and non pathogenic Entamoeba (Entamoeba dispar) , the percentage of infection of Entamoeba histolytica was lower than that of Entamoeba dispar. This was clear by the detection of amplification the Reaction producets (dPCR) by using both genes : Actin &Ehcp5 where only 8 samples were detected and they were found to be positive amplification Ehcp5 and 31 samples were positive amplification in both groups of patients (symptomatic and a symptomatic). The percentage of infection in females was higher than that in males for all ages when using both tests (wet mount & PCR). More over the patients with less than (10) years old had higher percentage of infection in both sexes.In conclusion, it should not be depended on direct wet mount technique for the identification of infected parasite Entamoeba histolytica and differentiating it from Entamoeba dispar because of their high homology. That the molecular examination is the only method that is able to determine the kind of infection with parasite Entamoeba

The maternity hospital, some health centers and competent laboratories in Al - Qadisiya province during the period from 1/11/2012 to 30/6/2013 and for age range of ? 1 - 12 year exclusively. The current study showed the rate of total infection of Giardia parasite was 5.61% (52 of 926 samples). They were examined by direct wet smear method and floatation method by using light microscope to detect the trophozoite and cyst phases of parasite. It was found in numerous stool samples. The results of samples showed that the infection in males was higher than in females 6.12% and 5.11 % respectively. The age range 2 - 4 years recorded highest incidence of infection and the age range 8 - 10 years recorded the lowest incidence of infection 13.87% and 1.52 % respectively. Also it was recorded higher infection rate in June and the lower infection rate in January 10.37% and 1.92% respectively. It was recorded higher infection rate among the rural population in comparing with urban population 7.07% and 4.45 % respectively. statistical analysis results show a significant differences at(P?0.05). In the present study, Real - Time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect Giardia parasite infection in microscope positive examined samples where it had record total Infection rate of 73.07% (38 of 52). Statistical analysis of survey results after depending on PCR technique showed significant differences in infection among the age range. The age range 2 - 4 years had recorded the higher infection rate 83.33% while there are no significant differences of infection according sex.It reached in males to 75% in comparing with females 70.83 %, also it did not show significant differences in infection rate according to living areas.It had reached in rural areas to 75.86 % in comparing with urban areas 69.56%. In addition, polymerase chain reaction technique was used (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP - PCR) to determine genotypes of Giardia intestinalis parasite for 20 case from diarrhea positive cases of children in Al - Qadisiya province, by amplifying gene (gdh) glutamate dehydrogenase gene by using specialists primer. They are GDHiF and GDHiR It got the amplification results successfully in all stool samples of 20 and positive examined Real - Time PCR were it had determined the existence of gdh gene of molecular weight of 432bp in all those samples. The study showed that 7 of the previous samples belong to genotype A (35%) and 13 samples belong to genotype B (65%).It showed that all samples of genotype A belong to secondary genotype AII in rate 100%, while samples of genotype B belong to two secondary genotypes, they are BIII (61.53%) and BIV (38.46%). The study showed the appearance of genotype A in the age range under six years, while genotype B in all age range approximately. The distribution of genotypes according to sex and housing it had record both genotypes appeared in both sex with different rate genotype B was more appearance than genotype A in males than females. According to the nature of housing secondary genotype AII had appeared in rate 70% in urban areas, while genotype B with its secondary different genotypes in both areas urban and rural, but with higher rate in rural areas (100 % and 30 % respectively). We had concluded from the current study that there is a close relationship between infection, the sex, age range, nature of settlment and monthly distribution.There are two basic geno types in province, they are A and B, for each of them there aresecondary genotypes AII, BIII, BIV.

The results of the present study showed that 56% of the subjects were pregnant and 44%were not. The highest percentage of the infected subjects was of 26 - 30 years old as 30.37% among the pregnant women and 36.35% among the non - pregnant women of the age mentioned above. The highest percentage 37.5% of abortion of the first period of pregnancy was in pregnant women, and 45.53% in non - pregnant women. The results of the study also showed more cases of infected women among those who bred animals in their living places as 69%. It is also found that the highest percentage of the infected women 64% were of those who use the running water for drinking. Moreover, it is noticed that there is an increase in the percentage of the infected women among the uneducated women 38%. The study showed that the percentage of the infection is proportional to residence 63%, the infection increase among women living in rural areas. The percentage of T - lymphocytes in peripheral blood of patients were also measured through measuring the percentage of the CD4+ and CD8+cells by using fluorescent microscope.The results showed a significant decrease (p<0.05) in this type of cells.The rate of percentage of CD4+ of the patient's were 31.704±0.116 while the rate of CD4+ in the peripheral blood of the control group was 62.260±0.237.The rate of percentages of CD8+ 19.382±0.080, whereas it was 31.680±0.307 of the control group.The rates of the percentages of CD4+ to CD8+ were also measured, the results showed a significant decrease (p<0.05) in the rate of the percentage in the patient's group 1.642 while it was 1.968 in the control group. The statistic analysis showed significant differences between these tow groups (p<0.05). The intensity of Zinc and Copper has been measured in the serum of the infected women via use of Atomic absorption instrument, a significant decrease (p <0.05) appeared in the rate of Zinc intensity in the serum on the infected women as compared with the control group.The rate of the intensity in patient's group was 4.65% ± 2.628µmol /l while in the control group it was 15.353± 1.640 µmol /l.A significant increase (p<0.05)was also noticed in the intensity of Copper in the patient's group (28.589±4.335 µmol /l)whereas it was 12.854±1.501 µmol /l in the control group. The index of the specific antibodies IgM and IgG related to Toxoplasma gondii was measured by ELISA method, a significant increase (p<0.05) was observed in the value of IgM and IgG in the patient's group as compared with the control group. The rate of index for IgM in the patient's group was 1.354±0.05 while it was 0.163±0.05 in the control group. The rate of value of IgG in the patient's group was 1.163±0.074 whereas it was 0.358±0.033 in the control group. In the present study, Toxoplasma gondii was isolated and diagnosed from human as first attempt, and then the infection was created in laboratory mice as an essential step for growing the parasite. The second step was studying the effect of some selected drugs on the experimental treatment for disease of toxoplasmosis created in the mice. The drugs are : Pyrimethamin, Clarithromycin, Spiramycin, Ivermectin.The results of the study showed the effects of these drugs on the tissue cyst formed in the brain and lungs. The number of tissue cysts in the brain of the mouse treated with pyrimethamin was 14.8 ±1.067 after 28 days. Significant differences appeared when this result compared with the control group in which it was 27.4±1.029. The number of tissue cysts formed in lung, tissue in the mouse treated with the same drug after the same period of the time was 6.2±0.583.This showed a significant differences as compared with the control group in which it was 10.2±0.583. No significant differences appeared between both groups as for the treatment by Clarithromycin antibiotic as far as the number of the tissue cysts formed in the brain after 28 days is concerned. The number was 23.8 ±0.86 as compared with the control group 38.6±1.029.The same compared is true of the lungs, tissue. The number of the tissue cysts was 23.8±0.86 as compared with the control group 28.4±1.805. Concerning the antibiotic Spiramycin, the results showed the effectiveness of it in decreasing the tissue cysts formed in the brain.The significant differences were (p<0.05), the rate of the cysts was 9.6±0.6 as compared with the control group in which it was 22.8±1.067.The same effectiveness appeared on the lungs, tissue as the rate of tissue cysts after 28 days of treatment was 4.6±0.509 as compared with the control group in which was 17±1.14 and the significant differences were (p=0.000).The Ivermectin drug showed a great effectiveness in minimizing the number of the tissue cysts formed in the brain and the lungs. The numbers of the tissue cysts formed after 28 days were 3.2±0.374 and 1±0.316 respectively; significant differences are observed when these numbers are compared with the numbers of the control group which were 22±1.843 and 19.4±1.435. Thus, the use of Ivermectin drug is considered as a pioneer and fruitful study since this drug has not been used for the treatment of Toxoplasmosis.

The samples were examined by double wet direct smear method to identify the trophozoite and cyst stages of Entamoeba histolytica. The results showed that (112) were infected with amoebic dysentery. The total rate was (20.74 %). (262) are males with a rate of infection (19.84 %), whereas, the number of females was (278) with an infection rate (21.58 %). The study showed an increase rate of infection among the rural population, it was (25.71 %), whereas the urban population rate was (16.6 %). The study covered all ages beginning from less than a year to 75 years old. A highest rate of infection was recorded by (10 - 19) years old, it was (29.4%). The study also, found out that a highest rate of infection was during school months, particularly during November (27.5 %). Examinations of complete blood picture which included Hemoglobin concentration (Hb), packed cells volume (PCV), white blood cells count (WBCc), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were done on all patients infected with amoebic dysentery. The results were compared with those of healthy ones (Control Group). The results showed significant differences between the two groups. According to the significant one (P < 0.05), it recorded a decrease (16.9%) in the (PCV) and (25.1%) in the (Hb) and an increase (241.8%) in the (ESR) and (51.5%) in the (WBCc) for those ones infected with amoebic dysentery if compared with the control group. Clinical biochemistry examinations were performed, on blood sugar (Bs), electrolytes such as Sodium (Na+), Potassium (K+), Calcium (Ca++), Magnesium (Mg++), liver functions tests : total serum bilirubine(TSB), tranceaminase enzyme(GOT, GPT), alkaline phosphetase (AlP), total protein (TP) and albumin (Alb). The results showed that there are significant differences between persons infected with amoebic dysentery and the healthy ones according to the significant level (P < 0.05) in these examinations. The study showed a decrease(21.6%) in the (Bs) mean concentration, (16.8%) in the(K+) mean concentration, (5.8%) in the(Ca++) mean concentration, (4.5%)in the (Mg++) mean concentration, (10.5 %) in the (Na+) mean concentration , (17.2%) in the (TP) mean concentration and(12.2%) in the (Alb) mean concentration and increase (83.7%) in the (Alp) mean concentration, (52.1%) in the(TSB) mean concentration, (81.1%)in the (GPT) mean concentration, (59.9%)in the (GOT) mean concentration and(22.8%) in the (globulin) mean concentration in the persons infected with amoebic dysentery compared with the mean concentrations in healthy ones control group.

Abstract: اجريت هذه الدراسة للمدة من كانون الثاني 2011 ولغاية كانون الاول 2011 للمرضى الراقدين والمراجعين لمستشفى تكريت التعليمي وبعض المختبرات الخاصة في مركز المدينة وضواحيها والذين يعانون اعراض مرضية مختلفه ولفئات عمرية مختلفة ترواحت بين اقل من سنة الى 61 سنة، ح | This study was conducted for the period started from January 2011 until December 2011 on inpatients and outpatients of Tikrit educational hospital and some private laboratories at Tikrit city and surrounded suburbs. Symptoms of different diseases among various age groups varies between less than one year to 61 years. The tests used the (ELISA & PCR) and the analysis of the PCR - RFLP to discriminate the infection by assemblage of Giardia lamblia and differentiate between pathogenic amoeba Entamoeba histolytica and nonpathogenic Entamoeba dispar compared with microscopical examination. The result of present study showed that (75) person who represent (37.5%) were infected by Giardia lamblia and (75) person who represent (37.5%) were infected by E.histolytica/E.dispare complex, out of (200) stool samples which have been tested by microscopical examination. Epidemiological study showed no significant difference among the sex for the two species parasites whereas a high percentage for infection recorded in group at age (1? - 10) year for Giardia lamblia and E.histolytica / E.dispar complex reach to (60%, 36%) respectively. Regarding the place of living Giardia lamblia in rural area showed infection rate of (19.5 %), while infection rate by E.histolytica/E.dispar complex reaches (22.5%) in urban area. Statistical analysis shows a high difference of significance according the source of water supply. Tap water showed high incidence for initiating infection which reaches to (93.3%) by G.lamblia and (90%) for E.histolytica/E.dispar complex. For the infection rates and their relationship to the educational level, the results show that the highest rates of infection recorded in non - educated (52%) and (73.3%) of Giardia lamblia and E.histolytica / E.dispar complex, respectively. Depending on the sample texture, the result show that oily diarrhea is more correlate with infection reaches to (33.3%) of Giardia lamblia and the watery diarrhea form 40% by E.histolytica / E.dispar complex, while simultaneous occurrence of both symptom (colic and loss of appetite) are the most symptom synchronized with infection records (44%) for Giardia lamblia and (36%) for E.histolytica / E.dispar complex. The percentage of infection by Giardia Lamblia in this study depends on the test results of the ELISA was (20%), while the percentage of infection E.histolytica/E.dispar complex was (6.7%). Testing has shown sensitivity compared to microscopic examination reaches to (22.6%) and (8%) for both parasite respectively, while the test showed a high specificity which reaches the rate (93.3%) and (100%) for both parasites respectively. Result of PCR showed a percentage of infection by E.dispar about (32%) (64 sample) from the total samples, whereas it does register any cases infection by E.histolytica. By counting the results of the PCR for the three genes (ssu rRNA + TPIA + GDH) they show a total infection by Giardia lamblia which was (10.5%) (21 samples). This study recorded percentage of infection Giardia lamblia depending on the result of the three Genes separately amounted to (4%), (5%), (3%) for (ssu rRNA, TPIA, GDH) respectively. According to the result of the analysis PCR - RFLP for GDH gene by using the enzyme NIaIV, it did not record any infection by Giardia lamblia (assemblage A), whereas (6 samples) recorded (100) by Giardia lamblia (assemblage B), by using the enzyme Rsal to determine the secondary assemblage shows that the total (6 samples) infected there are 5 samples carrying infection by two type of secondary assemblage returning to the assemblage B (assemblage BIII +BIV) and only one sample infected with (assemblage BIV). To determine the assemblage and secondary assemblage for the parasite result compared with amplification of TPIA gene with lysis by enzyme for the resulting amplification for GDH gene, resulting a ratio of (14.3%) for a sample infection by both assemblage (A+B) and secondary assemblage (BIII+BIV) together, and a ratio of (57.14%) infection by assemblage A only and (21.4%) infection by secondary assemblage (BIII+BIV) together and (7.14%) infection by BIV only.

The infection rate and severity of 10%, 6.81.4%, 4.72.2, %, 54.2%, 0.09, respectively, and Two species of Ticks are Argus persicus and Haemophysalis sp. Nymph. and the rate of infection was 2%, 0.36; 2%, 0.24 : respectively. The results showed that the triple infection of lice are the most common, (63.63%.) While internal parasites that 9 species of intestinal parasitic worms in the digestive system included two species of Protozoa Eimeria sp. and Histomonas meleagridis The infection rate and intensity was14%, 4.20 0.2%, 0.14, respectively, Four species of tape worms Railletina cesticillus, Railletina tetragona. Choanoyania infundibulum and Hymenolepis sp.The intensity of infaction was 2%, 100.2% 53.284, 4, 00, 2% 2%, 0.42; respectively, Three species of nematodes Ascardia gallinarum, Capillaria sp. and Heterakis gallinarum and severity of infection was 21.73%, 1.2; 2% 0.100; 17.79%, 1.25; respectively. The study showed the presence of internal parasitic worms sites in the gastrointestinal tract it was observed that most of tapeworms parasitize in the small intestine and rates higher than what is found in other parts of the gastrointestinal tract, and the protozoa are found in the liver and small intestine. The nematodes are also found in various parts of the gastrointestinal tract, including both of the small intestine and the large intestine and esophagus. The species Haemophysalis sp. and Oxylipeurus sp. and helminths Raillietina cesticillus, Raillietina tetragona, Choanotania infundibulum, Hymenolepis sp. Ascardia gallinarum, Capillaria sp.Heterakis gallinarum. and Eimeria sp. were the first recording in turkeys in Iraq. Also the current study showed a many of gross and microspcopic pathological changes caused by lice in infected birds, such as lethargy, laziness and sagging wings and nervous tension and break the feathers and hair loss, as well as change the color of the skin also appeared many of the macroscopic and microscopic changes in the gastrointestinal tract as a result of, intestinal worm included changes macroscopic obstruction and hemorrhagic bruises and blood infiltration The microscopic changes have included the infiltration of inflammatory cells Nicrosis and abstraction of cells lining the of these channels and the proliferation of Kubffer cells and expansion in sinosoids and atrophy of the villi tissue.

Demographic data, clinical and socioeconomic status were collected from the patients using a structured questionnaire. Total genomic DNA was isolated from 60 samples of vaginal swab randomly chosen to specific detection of T. vaginalis DNA into a rapid real - time PCR.All samples were examined by the direct microscopic examination (wet mount and Giemsa - stained smear). Their ages were ranging from 14 - 63 years. The vaginal swabs examined by wet mount and Real Time - PCR to detect the presence of T. vaginalis. The pH strips were used to detect the vaginal acidity.Of the 60 women, 13 were positive by Real Time - PCR giving the prevalence rate of (21 67%) with sensitivity, specificity and accurate rate 100% and the direct microscopic examination (wet mount and Giemsa - stained smear) show 5/60 (8.33%) positive case while 55/60 (91.67%) gave a negative result with a sensitivity and specificity, and accuracy (38.5%) (100%) (86.7%).Women aged (24 - 33)years had significantly higher prevalence of trichomoniasis (46.1%) than other age groups.Married women had the highest percentage of trichomoniasis (76.9%), comparing with widowed women (7.7%) and divorced women (15.4). With statistical significant difference between these groups. Uneducated women had significantly higher rate of T.vaginalis infection (76.9%) than educated women (23.1%). Statistical significant difference was detected between these groups.Pregnant women showed a higher infection rate 7(53.8%) than non - pregnant 6 (46.2%).Women with vaginal pH (6 - 7), (5 - 6) had significantly higher rate of infection (53.8% and 38.5%) respectively.Women who used (loop and the oral contraceptive pills) contraception had the lower rate of infection(23.1%) than those not using any contraception (67.9%). Statistical significant difference was detected between these two groups.The highest percentage 2(66.67%) was found among women with T. vaginalis who used contraception for >2 years.The higher percentage of infected with T. vaginalis parasite was found in bad odor or fish odor vaginal discharge which was noted (76.9%) of infected women with T. vaginalis. Statistical significant difference was detected between these groups. Women with Frothy discharge color showed higher significantly percentage of infection 7(53.8%) than other with Yellow to green and bloody discharge and Clear discharge 3(23.1%), 2(15.4%) and 1(7.7) respectively.Multipara women revealed the highest rate of trichomoniasis (46.15%). No statistical significant difference was detected between infection and parity.T.vaginalis was more commonly seen in women with frequency of sexual intercourse 2 - 3 time per week 5 (50%) cases. The lowest incidence was detected among those who had sexual intercourse once per month 1 (10%), with statistical significance among these variables. T.vaginalis was found to be predominant among housewives (69.23%) than employees (30.77%).Fertilizing women were showed higher 9(69.2%) T. vaginalis infection than non - fertile women 4(30.8%).The high incidence of T.vaginalis infection was found among rural females 8 (61.5%), followed by urbanized females 5 (38.5%).

The patients groups were divided according to the clinical diagnosis to 50 patients infected with ocular toxoplasmosis (OT) and 54 patents with uveitis, in addition to these groups acontrol group was also included 96 healthy apparent persons without any infection in their eyes.Some epidemiological characters were studied like age, that showed a little effect on two groups OT (Mean of age 38.07 ± 15.14) and uveitis (Mean of age 35.1 ± 17.6). The two groups were found in range 20 - 40 year while the control group include individuals with different age due to the randomly collection. The occupation factor play arole in the prevalence of infection with highly significant differences (P<0.05) in (house wife, workers) with a percentages 35(70%) 35(64.8%) in OT and uveitis groups respectively but the control group expend to include house wife, workers and officers with a total rate 92.7%.The education level also showed significant differences (P<0.01) among the studied groups, the most of ocular toxoplasmosis and uveitis samples were found in highly frequency at the primary, intermediate and secondary educational level with total rate 74% and 77.81% respectively while the control group was found at the secondary and under graduate educational level in 77.1%. The residency character was also examined and no revealed significant difference (P<0.05).The infection path was also set by the presence of animals especially cats which ware existed leading to statistical differences, p? 0.01 for OT group with rate 18%. The visual activity character showed no significant difference (P?0.05) between the patients of OT and uveitis who affected their visual acuity in right eye while the doubling response was recorded for uveitis patients with rate 55.6% in comparable with OT patients with rate 38% for the left eye. The intra ocular pressure was normal in both groups and for both eyes without significant difference.Latex and ELISA IgG. IgM serological tests were used in this study. The results were showed that latex test is easier and it is appear that OT patients were diagnosis with 100%, while the uveitis patients didn't show any positive result. Control group showed that 21 individuals were infected with rate of 21.9%.ELISA - IgG toxo. antibodies confirmed that the infection rate of OT patients was 39 (78%) versus 11(22%) with negative result, while the study also confirm that uveitis patient that have OT disease was 12 patient from 54 case, 42 case didn't diagnosis for OT. The control group was re - evaluated showed 28 case with toxoplasmosis infection from 96 case which from the subclinical group. The antibodies levels were measure by international unit/ ml for all groups, the IgG level was 3.186 ± 1.703 Iu/ml in positive control group followed by OT patients with 2.927 ± 2.417 and uveitis group 0.637 ± 0.803, finally the negative control group 0.276 ± 0.163. IgM levels were low and its presence didn't have any positive case. This study also showed that there was a relation between the IgG level and the pathological effect on eyes which resulted from infection for both groups OT and uveitis, it was high rate 73.5% with 50 patient, for posterior uveitis causing significant differences (P<0.05) followed by anterior uveitis with rate 13.2%.As for the results of cytokines there was a high level of IFN - ? in positive control group 793.7 ± 3461.6 pg/ml followed by OT group 550.6 ± 210.6 pg/ml, the uveitis group that in infected with ocular toxoplasmosis and negative control recorded 524.1 ± 173.6 and 506.6 ± 104.6 pg/ml levels respectively, this rise in the level of IFN - ? cause a significant differences at (P<0.05) for OT, uveitis (non infected) and positive control groups. TNF - ? recorded arise of its level in positive control group 34.89 ± 12.29 pg/ml followed by OT group 32.24 ± 9.91 pg/ml then positive uveitis group 23.61 ± 12.91 pg/ml after them negative control 14.62 ± 5.43 pg/ml finally negative uveitis group with 7.76 ± 4.04 pg/ml.High level of 1L - 12 was gotin positive control group in a concentration 827.00 ± 224.25 pg/ml followed by OT group with 811.28 ± 179.40 pg/ml. An increase in 1L - 17A was recorded in positive control group with mean 327.65 ± 77.89 pg/ml while converged concentration in OT group 263.73 ± 47.48 and positive uveitis group 252.57 ± 61.55 pg/ml. The lowest level was in negative control group 421.6 ± 168.14 pg/ml. MCP - 1 showed a rise in its level in positive control group 274.09 ± 92.05 pg/ml and reduce in OT patients 217.68 ± 98.70 pg/ml, while the two groups negative and positive uveitis recorded levels 155.71 ± 99.51 and 132.60 ± 99.02 pg/ml respectively. The lowest level was register in negative control 97.56 ± 79.17 pg/ml.

Abstract: اجريت هذه الدراسة التي امتدت من بداية شهر ايار (2007) لغاية نهاية شهر اب (2008) للتحري عن نسبة الخمج بالطفيلي المسبب لداء المقوسات بين النساء المجهضات والولودات طبيعا في بعض مناطق مدينة الموصل والمراجعات لمستشفى الخنساء التعليمي للولادة والاطفال.شملت عي | This study was conducted during the period from May 2007 to August 2008 to investigate the rate of infection with toxoplasmosis among aborted and normally delivered women in Mosul City territories who attending AL - Khansa'a educating hospital.Out of 150 women under study, 50 were aborted while 100 were normally delivered. The employed tests were included latex agglutination test LATEX and Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) with its two types (ELISA - IgM), (ELISA - IgG) which used as a high specific and sensitive test to differentiate between types of infection acute, chronic and congenital. Toxoplasmosis was diagnosed in 28(56%) out of 50 abortive placenta and in 57(57%) out of 100 non abortive placenta (normally delivered women), these samples of placenta were microscopically examined after homogenizing and staining by Gimsa and Leishman's stain The parasite development stages were also noticed including developing from the tachyzoites into the oocysts stage and the histopathological effects resulting from infection in the placenta in both aborted and normally delivered women which were represented by necrosis, vaculation and cells degeneration , inflammatory cells infiltration and the focal inflammatory reaction in the villi in addition to hemorrhage and accumulation of eosinophilic substances, the results also showed that 41 (82%) of aborted placenta and 18 (18%) of non abortive placenta (normal delivered women) were infected with Toxoplasmosis by using the laboratory Balb/c mice inoculation method while, some cases of inflammation were diagnosed in the brain, of the experimental infected mice, which were represented by the inflammatory cells infiltration and the prevailing of gliosis, tissue necrosis vaculation and cells degeneration.This study revealed that laboratory mice inoculation in the peritoneal cavity is a useful and efficient method in the detection of the parasite in infected placenta as compared with the microscopic examination of direct smears and examination of tissue sections from placenta.The present study showed an overall percentage of infection among aborted women was (92%) while (58%) showed an acute infection and (34%) chronic infection, in another hand the infection rate among normally delivered women was (70%), and it has been found the infection rate among acute and chronic cases were (41%), (20%) respectively, Its to be noted this is the first time in Mosul City for such a study conducted in this area concerning the congenital Toxoplasmosis in newborns with an infection rate (9%).In this study, sera were tested by Latex (LAT), and Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). It was shown that IgG - ELISA is the most sensitive to diagnose the infection as compared to other tests.These study also concerned with the isolation and diagnosis of Toxoplasma gondii parasite from blood by inoculating the blood samples in laboratory Balb/C mice the rate of infection was (16%) in laboratory mice inoculated with blood collected from aborted women while the infection rate in laboratory mice inoculated by blood samples (mother and her neonatal cord blood) collected from normally delivered women appear in (12%) & (16%) respectively. The rate of occurrence of the specific antibodies against Toxoplasma gondii was identified, The highest rate was found for the type (IgG+ - IgM+), in both aborted and normally delivered women with percentage reach (40%) & (26%). The titer (100 IU/ml) of the specific IgM & IgG antibodies was found in high rate reached (75%), (43.5%) in mother blood, also found in a high percentage in the neonatal cord blood estimated as (50%), (64.4%) for the specific IgM & IgG antibodies respectively, in another hand the titer (100 IU/ml) was also found to be the more predominate titer in blood samples of aborted women with percentage reached to (50%) & (60.5%) for the specific IgM & IgG antibodies respectively.

Abstract: The current study had been carried out from January 2013 to July 2013 in medical laboratory researches - Kirkuk Faculty of Medicine. A total of 310 stool samples have been collected from children suffering from liquid diarrhea, their ages are from below one year to 12 years; six different laboratory diagnostic methods have been applied for detecting Giardia lamblia and other intestinal parasites. For microscopy diagnosis; direct wet double prepartions, zinc sulphate flotation are used. While immunological methods involve; Enzyme Linked Immuno - Sorbent Assay, corpo - antigen (ELISA), Direct Fluorescent Assay (DFA) and Lateral immune - chromatography assay (Triage panel). Giardia genome amplification is done using conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) single step procedure by using of mixed primers of Giardia assemblages A1, A2 and B. The total rate of intestinal parasitic infection is 51.93 % distributed in 161 stool samples. This rate involve high frequency of protozoan infection in 132 (42.58 %) compare to 29 (9.35 %) for helminthes, P<0.05. More common intestinal protozoan parasites were Giardia lamblia 63(20.32 %) followed by Blastocyst hominis, Cryptosporidium parvum, Entamoeba coli, Entamoeba histolytica, Iodomoeba butschili, Endolimax nana and Balantidium coli with the rates : 6.77%, 6.45%, 4.18 %, 2.58 %, 1.29 %, 0.64 % and 0.32 % receptively. Concerning intestinal helminthic infection, high number and rate 23(7.41 %) was with Hymenolepis nana is compare with 1(0.32 %) record for Ancylostoma duodenale.According to gender high rate of giardiasis is recorded among males than in females, conversely to high rate of other intestinal parasites among female than in males P<0.05. Statistically relationship between Giardia distribution and ages are not significant P>0.05. Giardia co - existence are highly detected with Balstocystis hominis, and Cryptosporidium parvum total Giardia mixed parasitic infection rate 8.06 % is lower than12.23 %of pure Giardia lamblia infection, P>0.05. Regarding Giardia lamblia detecting according to laboratory methods; high rate of giardiasis 22.29% is reported by using PCR technique, followed by 20, 23 % by using direct wet preparation technique, P<0.05.The efficacy of laboratory methods for detecting Giardia stages are reduced; the following rates 19.35%, 19.03%, 17.74% and 14.51% obtained by using ELISA, DFA, flotationand lateral immuno - chromatography assay (Triage) respectively, P<0.05. Also statistical analysis reveals significance of PCR sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in detecting giardiasis than other laboratory methods. Negative predictive values NPV in relation to type of laboratory methods are high, but statistically they are not significant, controversy to positive predictive value PPV that are significant. The efficacy of Triage panel is high for detecting giardiasis 14.45 % as compare with 4.5 % and 3.5 % for detecting Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts and Entamoeba histolytica respectively P<0.05 %. Considering the application of double direct wet preparations, the results of using this method are beneficial for detecting protozoan and helminthic parasites. While the using of zinc sulphate flotation technique reveal fluctuated results in spite of significant statistical analysis P<0.05. The employee of five laboratory methods for detecting the oocysts of Cryptosporidum parvum; the following rates 6.45%, 5.48%, 4.83%, 4.51% and 3.22% are recorded with the usage of DFA, direct microscopy, modified Ziehl - Neelsen method, Traige panel and flotation method respectively, P>0.05. Giardia lamblia DNA extraction from 80 stool samples that amplified using Giardia gene loci K725, reveal 66 samples positivity, pure Giardia lamblia genomic mass mean is 437.56 bps, with 1.705 % of genome purity and the extension of genomes range from 280 to750bps.While 23 of mixed Giardia plus other protozoan parasites, the mean of gemonic mass is 439.89 bps with genome purity mean 1.56 %. Amplification of Giardia genome mixed with helminthes reveal 443.33 bps of genomic mass mean and 1.49 % genome purity mean. In general the all genomic mass of Giardia lamblia (Pure and mixed infection) is 440.26 bps and purity mean 1.54 % P>0.05.PCR amplification in stool sample exert that Giardia lamblia genomes are mixed of human and animal type.

Abstract: داء المقوسات الكونديه مرض عالمي الانتشار حيث يصاب معظم الاشخاص ذوي المناعة الجيدة بطفيلي المقوسات الكونديه وغالبا دون ظهور اعراض. ان الهدف الرئيسي لهذه الدراسه هو فهم الفروقات الجنسيه, الهرمونيه والمناعيه في سن البلوغ في الاشخاص الذين لديهم اجسام مضاده نو | Toxoplasmosis is a worldwide disease where most healthy, immunocompetent individuals infected by Toxoplasma are almost asymptomatic.The primary goal of this study is to perceive the hormonal and immunological sex - differences in puberty age who have positive anti - Toxoplasma IgG specific antibodies. The secondary goal is to inspect the endocrine - immune interaction in these persons by detecting the effect of testosterone and oestradiol hormones level on cellular immune response namely, IL - 4, IL - 12. From the first of November 2012 till the end of April 2013, 303 blood samples were collected from apparently healthy male and female students of Al - Erfan, Ignadeen and Algawahery schools and Baghdad University, Both sexes where divided into two age groups : group (A) which included subjects with age range (12 - 15) years old and group (B) which included subjects with age range (16 - 19) years old. All serum samples were tested for toxoplasmosis by using Latex agglutination test and ELISA anti - Toxoplasma IgG antibodies test. As well as, all serum samples were tested by using ELISA technique for detection of serum mean concentration of testosterone, oestradiol hormones, IL - 12 and IL - 4. The results revealed that 107/ 303 (35.31%) of the studied subjects showed seropositive toxoplasmosis, 60 males and 47 females of 107 positive samples showed high significant (p<0.01) differences in comparison to uninfected subjects. Males group B have recorded the highest percentage 34(41.46%) of the infection. Positive association was found between toxoplasmosis and testosterone level in asymptomatic toxoplasmosis cases compared to uninfected group. high mean concentration of testosterone in toxoplasmosis infected males recorded (15.03± 1.04 ng/ml) and (12.4± 0.91 ng/ml) in groups A and B respectively, in comparison to control group which recorded (8.03± 0.78) and (9.86± 0.83) in groups A and B respectively. Also toxoplasmosis infected females revealed high levels of testosterone hormone which represented (4.83± 0.06 ng/ml) and (2.55± 0.03 ng/ml) in groups A and B respectively, with a significant (p?0.05) differences between them, while the control group recorded (0.10± 0.02 ng/ml) and (0.90±0.03 ng/ml) in group A and B respectively.The present study showed a significant (P?0.05) decrease in the mean concentration of oestradiol E2 hormone in toxoplasmosis infected males and females in comparison with uninfected ones. E2 mean concentration was (41± 2.48 ng/ml) and (56± 2.91 ng/ml) for male groups A and B, respectively, in comparison to control group which recorded (67± 2.08 ng/ml) and (74± 2.42 ng/ml) in group A and B respectively, while it was (188 ± 12.48 ng/ml) and (196 ± 16.52 ng/ml) for female group A and B respectively, in comparison to control group which recorded (221±12.09 ng/ml) and (233± 15.63 ng/ml) for group A and B, respectively.The mean concentration of E2 hormone in toxoplasmosis infected females according to their menstrual cycle showed low levels in ovulation, late follicular and luteal phases, which represent (37.5 ± 2.59 ng/ml), (131 ± 16.7 ng/ml) and (76± 3.92 ng/ml) respectively, while the mean concentration of this hormone in uninfected females was (52.4± 2.88 ng/ml), (271.6± 21.04 ng/ml) and (196.2± 12.37 ng/ml) in the three phases of menstrual cycle. This study showed high significant (p?0.05) level of IL - 12 in both males and females with latent toxoplasmosis in comparison with free - toxoplasmosis groups. The mean concentration of IL - 12 in infected males was (4.75 ± 0.88 pg/ml) and (4.12 ± 0.69 pg/ml) in male groups A and B respectively, in comparison to control group which was (2.86± 0.53 pg/ml) and (2.46± 0.62 pg/ml) in groups A and B respectively, while it was (5.60 ± 0.12 pg/ml) and (6.04 ± 0.26 pg/ml) in infected female groups A and B respectively, in comparison to control group which recorded (3.32± 0.89 pg/ml) and (4.27± 0.15 pg/ml) in group A and B respectively. IL - 4 recorded quite elevated level in toxoplasmosis infected males (groups A and B) which was (15.09 ± 0.92 pg/ml) and (17.67 ± 0.78 pg/ml) respectively, in comparison to control group which recorded (13.89± 0.84 pg/ml) and (14.92± 0.69 pg/ml) in groups A and B respectively, Meanwhile the mean concentration of IL - 4 in toxoplasmosis infected females showed mild elevation in both groups A and B which was (15.14 ± 0.84 pg/ml) and (16.06 ± 1.13 pg/ml) respectively, in comparison with toxoplasmosis free subjects which recorded (16.53± 1.22 pg/ml) and (15.15 ± 0.97 pg/ml) with no significant differences between them. Interactions between the endocrine and immune systems may mediate sex differences in response to toxoplasmosis infection.

These compounds were characterized by the Infrared (IR) Spectroscopy, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (1H - NMR), Mass Spectra, and the results were virtually identical to what is expected. It has been determined LD50 for the two ligands - after dissolved dimethyl sulfoxide DMSO - and account for them safe therapeutic dose, reaching 0.14 g / kg and 0.24 g / kg, respectively. In order to see the effectiveness of the two ligands on the parasite compared with the infected group and treatment with a drug metronidazole, these two ligands have been administered orally the therapeutic dose each separately on two groups of mice which infected by the parasite Entamoeba histolytica. Three other groups of mice that non - infected have been also administered separately with the parasite first and second ligands and dimethyl sulfoxide, to see some of the side effects of these three compounds in comparison with the two groups of positive and negative control. At the level of probability (p ? 0.05), the results of statistical analysis show a significant variation, remarkable inhibitory effect of the number of cysts that reached the less impact to the second ligand rate about 2.9. in the seventh day of the injury and treatment. In the fifth day of the injury and treatment, the highest inhibiting effect of metronidazole was at a rate of 0, while in the seventh day of them, the first ligand was a compromise in effect, amounting to at a rate of 1.1. The Histological study of tissue of the cecum, liver and spleen showed a normal state for a negative control, and an occurrence of severe tissue changes in a positive control. In the cecum tissue, the mucosal was thin, and there were crashes in the crypts of Lieberkühn, with infiltration in inflammatory cells, as well as the expansion of the cells lining the crypts, and the disappearance of or crash submucosal layer, as well as severe hemorrhage in muscularis, and thickening in serosa. There was severe congestion of the blood vessel which was observed in liver tissue, as well as thrombus which appeared attached to the wall of the blood vessel, and infiltration of inflammatory cells out of the blood vessel toward the hepatic tissue, especially macrophages and eosinophils. It was also noticed the disappearance of hepatic architecture with degeneration of the liver cells and a clear sinusoids expansion. In addition to vacuolation of liver cells, that the tissue sections showed, with the occurrence of bleeding along the hepatic tissue. The changes in the spleen tissue represented in the occurrence of severe bleeding on the length of the lymphatic tissue of the spleen with infiltration of inflammatory cells, especially macrophages, and the happening of megakaryocytes. There is a remarkable improvement could be noticed in each tissues of cecum, liver and spleen of the infected groups and treatment with metronidazole and the first and second ligands. The improvement ratios were close to some extent : in the treatment group with metronidazole there was observation in tissue cecum to the occurrence of the four layers of its component, and the happening of a little bleeding which, with infiltration of inflammatory cells, and this is roughly similar to what shown by histological sections of two treatments by the first and second ligands. The liver tissue of the group treated with metronidazole showed the occurrence of radially arrangement obviously hepatic cells around the central vein, and liver cells with nuclei appeared clear and centralized with esinophilic cytoplasm, and hepatic cells proliferative as some binucleated hepatocytes, with a simple expansion to sinusoids and the proliferation of kupffer cells, the treatment groups with two ligands marked by the presence of a small clot within the central vein of the liver as well as reported in the treatment group with metronidazole. Tissues sections of the spleen tissue of infected mice treated group by metronidazole showed a clear proliferation of white pulp, which appears containing arterioles clear, white pulp is also surrounded by proliferation red pulp. And showed tissue sections of the group of infected animals and treatment by the first and second ligands as well as the proliferation of lymphocytes, with the presence of megakaryocytes.Showed the three groups non - infected by the first and second ligands and dimethyl sulfoxide, the lack of side effects on each of the cecum tissue, liver and spleen, except for a very simple infiltration of inflammatory cells from macrophages in the cecum of the group treatment by the second ligand

The proportion of infected women with cutaneous leishmaniasis ulcers was higher 56.522% than males 43.47%, the age group ten years and less was more group that being infected with rate 47.83% while the age group that rang from 71 to 80 was the less categories being infected in percentage 0.87% with a significant differences in the level of improbability less than 0.05. The presence of multiple ulcers was high 71.304% than single ulcers 28.696%. The presence of ulcers that length 1 cm and less (64%) more than other with more than 1 cm (36%) with statistically significant. The cutaneous ulcers were distributed on different areas of the body, the injuries on face was more 36.242% with anumber of 54 cases followed by upper limbs in rate 33.557% with anumber of 36 cases, the sore shoulder came latter with apercentage 1.342% in a significant differences at the level of improbability less than 0.05. The percentage incidence of cutaneous leishmaniasis was rise in kids and students in rats 33.043%, 39.130% respectively in a comparison with earners, housewives and of officers their percentages were 24.349% and 3.478% consecutively in statistically differences at 0.05 probability. The diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis infections was done depending on clinical diagnosis based on the characteristics of the morphological and pathological ulcers, culture methods, impression smears and histopathological diagnosis. Clinical diagnosis for the cutaneous ulcer was recorded 100% percentage in comparison with culture method 10.435% versus 74.782%. percentage to positive smears, while the result of positive histopathological diagnosis was 88.571% on vision of promastigote of Leishmania parasite on semisolid medium while a adoption of existence amastigote from as appositive result of smears and histopathological method of the tissue biopsies taken from ulcer. The histopathological method was high efficiency supported clinical diagnosis when compared to other methods this rise in the diagnosis ratio has been demonstrated in significant differences in statistical probability less than 0.05.A study of amain impacts of histopathological changes in cutaneous ulcers on the infected skin layers at the level of light microscopy was also conducted. These pathological effects were in epidermis of skin including hyperkeratosis, pseudoepitheliomatous epidermal changes, ulcers and emergence of a dark colour, thickening in this layer accompanied suppurations and desquamation of chronic cases. As for the dermis layer, the inflammatory cells were infiltrate include plasma cells, macrophages, lymphocytes and eoisophils, disturbance in the order of layers especially in acute ulcers was taken, while the pathological effects were more in chronic ulcers as observed granulomatous inflammation and necrosis. The amastigote from were presence inside and outside the phagocytic cells.Aswell as some immunological changes that associated with the infection were studied in patients therapists by Pentostame (Sodium Stubogluconate) medication and uninfected control group by measuring the levelsof some cytokines IFN - ?, TNF - ?, IL - 12, IL - 17A and the chemokine MCP - 1. The level of IFN - ? was elevated in serum of cutaneous leishmaniasis patients and reached to 54.118±1.740 pg/ml, then the level was decreased during therapy and recorded 34.421±0.984 pg/ml after 1 - 3 dose a then dropped more after 4doses and more 22.489±0.795 pg/ml compared to uninfected control group 5.092±0.805 pg/ml. As well as the case of TNF - ? which rose their concentration in serum of CL patients and reached to 98.145±2.925 pg/ml, then decrease after treatment 71.507±2.901 pg /ml, 48.381±2.379 pg/ml after 1 - 3dose and more of treatment respectively, while the mean of TNF - ? in control group was 13.173±1.388 pg/ml.An increase in the level of IL - 12 was observed in the group of CL patients 845.598±16.273 pg/ml then the level was dropped during treatment and recorded 619.164±20.209 pg/ml, 495.578±27.038 pg/ml respectively but in control the concentration was 160.222±11.761 pg/ml. IL - 17A level was elevated in CL patients 227.268±5.027 pg/ml and decreased during therapy reach to 170.512±5.481, 126.443 ± 5.565 pg/ml after 1 - 3 doses and four doses and more respectively. The concentration of MCP - 1 chemokine was increased in CL patients 111.0397± 6.985 pg/ml then dropped during treatment 71.084± 2.636 pg/ml after 1 - 3 doses then dropped more 49.543± 2.167 pg /ml after four doses and more while they were in control 12.268 ± 1.609 pg/ml. The results of statistical analysis showed significant differences between these cytokines and their groups at the level of probability less than 0.05.

Abstract: تم جمع 291 عينة من الدم الوريدي من النساء في سبعة مناطق مختلفة في محافظة ميسان للفترة من تشرين الثاني 2012 وحتى اذار 2013 للكشف عن داء المقوسات باستخدام ثلاثة اختبارات هي اختبار التلازن الحبيبي وانزيم الادمصاص المناعي واختبار المنفايدس ثلاثة مجاميع من الن | In this study, venous blood sample were collected from 291 women in seven different regions of Maysan province during the period from October 2012 to March 2013 for detecting the toxoplasmosis by using three tests (Latex agglutination (LAT), enzyme linked immunosorbent (ELISA - IgG) and minividas. Three groups of women ( pregnant ,non - pregnant and aborted ) and 283 ewes which represent 18 herds from nine regions of Maysan province were selected for the study in order to diagnose the toxoplasmosis by using ELISA and LAT tests. The results showed that the ratio of Toxoplasma seropositivity in aborted women was significantly the highest (69.23%) followed by pregnant group (60.16%) by using LAT. Moreover, the ratio of seropositivity was highest in aborted women (47.43%) followed by pregnant (36.58%) and non - pregnant (26.66%) groups, respectively by using ELISA test. With Minividas assay, the results showed the highest seropositivity percentage in aborted women (26.92%) followed by the pregnant (17.88%) and non - pregnant (11.11%) groups, respectively. According to regions of the study, there was higher seropositivity against T. gondii in women in Al - Musharah subdistrict by LAT (68.09%) and ELISA (44.68%) test, respectively. However, the seropositivity by using minividas assay in three regions in AL - Majar district, Al - Musharah subdistrict and AL - Maymona district were 23.52% , 23.40% , 23.52% , respectively in comparison with other regions in Maysan governorate. The significantly high (P? 0.05) seropositivity detected by LAT (72.63%), ELISA (50.52%) and minividas (28.42%) were in women of age group > 30 years. The results showed that the ratios of Toxoplasma seropositivity in aborted ewes group was the highest (73.33%) followed by pregnant group (65.38%) after using the LAT, while the seropositivity in aborted ewes detected by the ELISA test was 40%. The results from Al - Musharah subdistrict that showed highest seropositivity against Toxoplasma by using LAT and ELISA tests were 78.26% and 39.13%, respectively. The highest Toxoplasma seropositivity in the two - years age - group ewes was 65.57% and one - year age - group was 65.30% after using LAT test, while was 32.65% in the age - group more than a year by ELISA. The statistical analysis showed significant difference (p ? 0.05) between the LAT and ELFA tests conducted for women samples, but there were no significant differences (p? 0.05) between LAT and ELISA carried out for women and ewes samples with regarded to Toxoplasma seropositivity.
