Effect Of Arginine On The Some Blood And Biochemical Parameters For Local Goat Females.

Abstract

This study was conducted in one of the private sector fields in Anbar province - Hit city Albasaer village (70 km west of the Ramadi city,), for the period from 28/6/2018 to 1/9/2018.Twenty one local female goats aged between 2-4 years and weighing between 24.5 to 36.5 kgwere used, Which have previous one birth or more. All female goats were tested usingultrasound to make sure they were not pregnant before the experiment began. Females wererandomly divided into three equal groups (7 goats in each group).Vaginal sponges (60 mgMAP) were injected into the three groups at the same time. The first group T1 was injectedintramuscularly with the amino acid, arginine (US Nevada manufacturing) in the muscles at200μmol.kg Five days before the sponge was pulled out until the 17 day after the sponge waspulled out, While the second group T2 was injected with amino acid (arginine) at 160 μmol.kg.Five days before the sponge was pulled until the 17th day after that. The third group T3 controlgroup was injected with 5 ml Normal Saline intramuscularly of the animal. All animals wereinjected three times daily from the eighth day after the sponge was placed (five days beforeremoving of the sponge) until 17 days after the removing of sponge. Where the total number ofinjection days was 22 days. Blood samples were taken from the jugular vein before injection ofthe arginine on day 7 and day 12 of the sponge placed either after the sponge pulled the bloodsamples were taken on the days 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 13, 18, respectively of the experiment Aftersponges removing. The objective of the study was to measure changes in the blood,biochemical parameters, during arginine treatment. The results of this study showedasignificant differences. T1 and T2 group were superior compared to control group in bloodproperties which include pcv in periods 2, 5, the number of white blood cells in periods 2, 3, 4,5, 6, 9, MID in periods 3, 9 and Lymphocytes in aperiods 4, 5, 6, 9, While the neutrophil cellsthe period of 3. In terms of biochemical properties, the results showed asignificant differences,between the treatments of T1 and T2 were superior compared to control treatments in the totalprotein concentration in period 6, and the globulin in period 6. We conclude that the use ofdifferent doses of arginine can improve the health status of female goats.
