Abstract | ||
An experiment has been conducted at Ruminante Researches Station at Abu-Ghraib referred to Animal Resources Researches Department / Office of Agricultural Researches / Agriculture Ministry, for a period from 15th Dec. 2009 up to 1st of June 2010. Pregnant Turkish- Awassi ewes were isolated at ages ranged 1- 4 year, conception period were restricted between 3.5 – 4.5 month with a 3 parturition seasons (first, second, fourth), ewes were randomly divided into 3 equal groups of 12 ewes each group included the 3 above mentioned parturition seasons (4 ewes / season). First group were taken normal streaming water which is considered as a control group. Whereas the 2nd and 3rd groups were taken the same above water magnetically treated with 2 intensity 1000 and 2000 gaus respectively. The study was included some hematological aspects for ewes such as total blood protein, blood glucose, Hemoglobin (Hb), packed cells volume (PCV) and total number of white blood cells (WBC) count. General mean for blood protein appeared a highly significant (p< 0.05) for the control group as compared with the 3rd group for the 2nd season ewes and a highly significant (p< 0.05) as compared with 2nd group for the 4th season ewes. General mean for blood glucose concentration appeared a highly significant (p< 0.05) for the 3rd on control of three seasoned ewes. General mean of Hb concentration for the 2nd group appeared highly significance (p< 0.05) as compared with control for the 1st season ewes, whereas the 3rd group showed a highly significance (p< 0.05) on control for the 4th season. General mean of PCV percentage appeared a highly significance (p< 0.05) of the 3rd group for the 1st and 4th seasons. In addition general mean for the total WBC count appeared a highly significance (p< 0.05) of the 3rd group for the 1st and 2nd seasons ewes, whereas the 2nd group appeared a highly significance (p< 0.05) for the 4th season compared with control. It possible to conclude that using magnetized water for pregnant and lactating ewes led to more over to positive effects in blood constituents. | ||
