Abstract | ||
This study was carried out to determine the effect of pregnancy on some physiological parameters in Iraqi She camels in comparative with males and females in estrus phase , sixty (60) camel blood samples were taken from AL-Najaf Slaughter house , twenty (20) blood samples for pregnant She camels , twenty (20) blood samples for females in estrus phase and twenty (20) blood samples for males to study the following parameters , Red blood cells count , hemoglobin concentration and packed cells volume and blood indices which are include mean corpuscular volume , mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration The grossly examination of ovary was used to determine the estrus phase for non – pregnant females . The electronic methods by beck man coulter were used to measure the studded parameters , The results revealed a significant decrease ( P 0.05) in blood parameters which are included RBCS count , Hb concentration and PCV% during pregnancy . Whereas no significant changes (P 0.05) in the blood indices values. There was decreased during dehydration and return to normal during rehydration , Which don’t take place in any group of this study | ||
