COMPARATIVE STUDY ABOUT CHEMICAL COMPOSITIONE FOR NORMAL AND CYSTIC OVARIAN FOLLICULLAR FLUID OF LOCAL IRAQI CATTLE’S IN KIRKUK DURING YEARS SEASON.

Abstract

This study was conducted on local Iraqi cattle in Kirkuk . Follicular fluidsamples of mature 600 cows ( 2- 3 years age ) were collected from slaughterhouse during the four season . Collected samples were divided into normalgroup and subdivided in to 5 categories according to their volume ( 2 -5 , 5 – 10,10 -15, 15 – 20 and 20 -25 mm )while the abnormal cysts were divided in tocystic and luteal cyst to determine the effect of season on ovarian cysticpercentages ,follicular volume and concentration of some minerals ( Ca ,Cu ,P,Fe )in follicular fluid .Follicular fluid were drawn using 5ml disposable syringe.Follicular fluids collected at the same day from the same cystic volumes mixedand stored at 20c until chemical analysis . Results showed that highest follicularand luteal cystic ratio recorded during summer season followed by winter andautumn .Normal follicular ratio were highest during spring(88% )followed byautumn , winter and summer . Cautions level in follicular fluid showed lowestlevel for Ca at summer(18.930mgdl) , non-significant differences in Cu ,P andFe level of the four season with highest level recorded during autumn ,whilelevel affected significantly by season with lowest level recorded during summerseason .Follicular volume affected cautions level during all season cautionslevel decreased with increasing follicular volume . Follicular and luteal cysticshowed non-significant decrease in Fe and P levels while its effect weresignificant for volume category it 20 -25 ml follicular cystic for Ca and lutealcystic for Cu
