ABSTRACT: Background: Heavy metal contamination in water is an increasing world-wide environmental concern. Heavy metals are capable of being bio-accumulated in high concentrations in fish tissues to cause potential health risks to the consumers. Culture fishes can easily be contaminated by different heavy metals through polluted culture environment and contaminated artificial feeds. Since studies on heavy metal contamination in feed based catfish culture are scare in Bangladesh, we have selected this study to evaluate the level of heavy metal contamination in feed based catfish (Pangasius sutchi, Clarias batrachus and Heteropneustes fossilis) culture for assessing the status of risks level for human consumption of these species. Materials and Methods: For this study, nine catfish culture........

ABSTRACT: The Big Island of Braila, known as the biggest farm in Europe, with the most fertile soil in Romania, has an objective to become the most developed farm in Europe. For this to be achieved, an investment plan is undergoing implementation. The sustainable implementation of an investment plan considering the European strategies for a biological agriculture requires rigorous organisation on a structural level as well as a procedural one. Starting from this premise, the method of economical agriculture within the company will affect the domains of agriculture, economy and human resources. The research method used is applied scientific methodology with the aim of gathering new knowledge regarding ecological agriculture and how it is implemented. The final objective........

ABSTRACT:Background: Biogenic amines (BAs) and heavy metal residues have been considered as one of the silent killers because of their significant health impacts on the consumers appeared after cumulative accumulation of ingested BAs and heavy metal residues following successive consumption of apparently wholesome foods suffered from rearing environment and post slaughtering storage conditionsfaults.
Material and Methods: A total of 120 random raw meat samples from fore and hind quarters of cattle, sheep and camel carcasses (20 each) were collected from different butcher shops in Tanta city, Gharbia governorate, Egypt. All samples were subjected to detection of heavy metals (lead, cadmium and arsenic), and determination of BAs content (histamine, putrescine, cadaverine and tyramine) by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) and Liquid Chromatography techniques, respectively.
Results: The obtained results showed that mean values of..........

ABSTRACT:Pabna cattle is a local dairy type of cattle of Bangladesh derived from multiple zebu inheritance repositored in Pabna and Sirajgonj district evolved during 4th decade of 20th century. Milk Vita, the largest dairy cooperative of the country, emerged with the blessings of bathans of Pabna cows in Sirajgonj (flood plain Basin of Jamuna River) following independence in 1971. In order to have more milk per cow a steady revolution of exotic-local crossbreeding has been underway causing a threat against existence of this type of cattle. Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute (BLRI) has made an impetus to further develop and conserve this type ex-situ in the late eighties of 20th century and coined BCB-1 cattle. Pabna cattle appears with almost 100% red coat with black skin, muzzle and other exposed area. Bull and cow mature at 450 – 500 kg and 224 – 280 kg body size, respectively. Height at wither..........

ABSTRACT:The main goal of this study was used the hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology in the range of 901-2251 nm was investigated to examine the starch content of potato flour noodles. Different spectral pre-treatment methods were used to improve the stability of the partial least squares regression (PLSR) and principal component regression (PCR) models. Compared the effects of other models, the result shows that PLSR is the best model. Based on the established SNV-CARS-PLSR model, the calibration performance of the dataset with R2c of 0.9490 and RMSEC of 0.1337%, and the validation performance of the dataset with R2p of 0.8946 and RMSEP of 0.1811%. The changes of starch contents of potato flour noodles during comprehensive comparison selected the optimal models were successfully visualized.

ABSTRACT:In this study, 385 blood samples were collected from sheep and goats of different ages, sex, in order to investigate the presence of trypanosomes in the Mosul city .
Blood was examined using routine diagnostic methods (wet blood smear, thin blood smear, thick blood smear, lymphocyte layer method) and stained with a )Gimsa ,Leishman, acridine orangedye) .
The study showed that the total infection rate in (sheep and goats) was 21%, and the study also proved that the highest infection rate appeared using the lymphocyte separation method, 21%, without significance differences with thin smears, with significant differences with thick and wet blood smears. There were significant differences between thick and wet blood.....

ABSTRACT: Background: Probiotics are living microorganisms that confer health benefits, especially when used as food preservative due to its known antimicrobial effect against many of the recorded foodborne pathogens. Dairy products have been recorded that may harbor many food poisoning bacteria such as E. coli and B. cereus. Material and methods: Investigate the antimicrobial effect of two lactobacilli strains represented by L. plantarum (1%) and L. gasseri (1%) lonely and/or combined with their extracted bacteriocins (300ppm) on experimentally inoculated pathogenic E. coli and B. cereus in yoghurt model along seven days in chilling conditions by traditional bacteriological evaluation and statistical analysis of variance. Results: Significant reduction of the tested organisms......
