Study of some hematological and biochemical parameters of local and Shammi goats in Baghdad

Abstract

In this study (104) animal males and Femals goats of Local and Shammi breeds in Baghdad city was examined ,these animals were normal.The results of hematological parameters showed that the means of Red Blood Cells, Hemoglobine and Packed Cell Volume were similar in goat males and females. also these means in Shammi breed goats were higher than Local breed goats. The mean concentration of Copper in groups of search males local breed goats were (0.20) µmol /l, while in females local breed goats were (0.16) µmol /l. The mean of copper in shammi males were (0.27) µmol /l ,while shammi females were (0.24) µmol /l. The results of the mean concentration of Magnesium in males local breed goats were (1.16) mmol/l, while the mean in females local breed goats were (0.99) mmol/l. The mean in shammi males were (1.24) mmol/l, while in shammi females were (1.26) mmol/l. The results of the mean concentration of Phosphorus in males local breed goats were (2.85) mmol/l, while in females local breed goats were (2.30) mmol/l. The mean of phosphorus in shammi males were (3.54) mmol/l, while in shammi females were (3.07) mmol/l. The results of the mean concentration of Potassium in males local breed goats were (4.36) mmol/l, while in females local breed goats were (4.68) mmol/l. The mean in shammi males were (5.66) mmol/l, while in shammi females were (5.32) mmol/l. Statistical analysis showed significant difference at (P< 0.05) between shammi and local breeds in RBC count, hemoglobin concentration, PCV, MCH, MCHC, concentrations of copper, magnesium, phosphorous, and potassium
