The determination of acidity of examined samples showed that the mean values of acidity degree, lactic acid and citric acid were (19.85±1.22), (0.19±0.01), and (0.12±0.01), respectively.

E. coli isolates were serogrouped into O111, O26, O91, O44, O128, and untyped serogroups. The molecular characterization of five E.coli isolates revealed that; all tested strains showed ompA gene and only two showed stx1 gene. While resistance genes (bla TEM and aac(3)-IV) were detected in all tested strains. All tested S. aureus isolates showed virulence genes (Spa gene and PVL gene) and resistance genes (mecA and aac gene).

The main cause of these diseases is atherosclerosis, which results from the deposition of lipids in the walls of blood vessels. Hyperlipidemia (HL) means an elevation of lipid levels (triglycerides (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL), and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)) with a reduction in high density lipoprotein (HDL) in the blood. Prevention and treatment of HL reflect directly on atherosclerosis and CVD. Many studies have been done to prevent and treat HL, whether by regulating the diet or by using therapies, statins, fibrates, niacin derivatives, bile acid sequestrants, and cholesterol absorption inhibitors are considered the most important treatments used to control HL, and many studies are still being done to discover and evaluate more therapies with fewer side effects for treatment of such a case. For that purpose, induction of HL in lab animals is a must to simulate the naturally ocuuring CVD. Most of these studies depend on a high-fat diet for induction. The objective of the current review is to provide updated and characterized facts on the methods of HL induction and possible treatments. At the end of this review, we conclude that induction of an experimental hyperlipidemic model for the management of HL is still a goal for evaluating hyperlipidemic drugs. Due to the many problems that result from diet-induced HL, either through its harmful effect on the heart or time consumption, we had to find a new method for induction of HL by using drugs to induce HL within a few days with less harmful effects on the vessels and heart","PeriodicalId":137314,"journal":{"name":"Zagazig Veterinary Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129883958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

NAFLD, characterized by hepatic steatosis, is associated with numerous adverse outcomes and high mortality. Furthermore, fatty acid uptake and de novo lipogenesis production outstrips fatty acid oxidation and export, leading to hepatic steatosis. Hepatic fatty acid uptake beside de novo lipogenesis are enhanced in NAFLD, whereas compensatory fatty acid oxidation is inadequate to normalize lipid levels and, by inducing oxidative stress, may contribute to cellular damage and disease progression, especially when the function of mitochondrial is impaired and increased peroxisomal and cytochromal oxidation. Although lipid output initially increases, it levels off and may decrease as the disease progresses, thereby promoting fat gain. NAFLD is closely associated with many current lifestyle-related diseases, as hepatic steatosis can lead to systemic metabolic imbalances affecting multiple organs.

The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs) among Saudis and expatriate workers in Najran region, Saudi Arabia. A direct wet smear from each stool specimen (n=407) was examined microscopically for the presence of intestinal protozoa or helminth ova cysts. stools were also examined by the formalin-ether sedimentation technique within 1 hour to detect eggs, cysts, and oocysts of intestinal parasites. The total intestinal parasitic infection rate in the study area, Najran district, was 14.7% (60 out of 407), where protozoal infection was the highest by 11.6%, and that included Entamoeba histolytica (7.6%), Giardia lamblia (2%), and Cryptosporidium parvum (2%). While the infection with Enterobius vermicularis was 1.2%. The rate of intestinal parasitic infections was 6.1% in employees, and 3.2% in each of construction workers and house maids. The intestinal parasitic infections in Saudi people were 24.3%. The highest rate of expatriate workers participation in the study was of Egyptians with a percentage of 18.2%followed by Indian and Pakistani with percentages of 11.8% and 9.6% respectively. The highest rate of IPIs infection was in adulthood (30-49 years) with 9.3%. The control of intestinal parasitic infections is a politically and socially sensitive issue. In others, the control of intestinal parasitic infections has proved a useful entry point for other primary health care activities, e.g., in family planning, childcare, health education, and nutrition.","PeriodicalId":137314,"journal":{"name":"Zagazig Veterinary Journal","volume":"25 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120810752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Egypt is the third biggest tilapia generating country after China and Indonesia. The maximum crucial governorates in Egypt that produce 80 % of the farmed tilapia in Egypt are Kafr-Elsheikh, Behira and Sharkia. Aeromonas infection in fish causes world economic problems because of the high number of fish mortalities particularly in China and India .Aeromonas hydrophila ( A. hydrophila ) is one of the most important agents of the outbreaks in fresh water fish, in which skinulcers, hemorrhage and necrosis of the visceral organs are the major symptoms. Synonyms are bacterial hemorrhagic septicemia, septicemia, or pest. The application of medicinal plantsin aquaculture has been a new approach. The adequate use of antibiotics and other chemotherapeutics in fish culture criticized because of the potential improvement of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, environmental pollution and the accumulation of residues in fish tissue. Based on current information about the ecology, pathogenicity and epidemiology, of the Genus Aeromonas, we should assume that infection with aeromonad will remain a great health problem in the future. The ubiquitous distribution of Aeromonas infection and the increasing elderly population, to whom these bacteria are an opportunistic pathogen, will facilitate this problem.","PeriodicalId":137314,"journal":{"name":"Zagazig Veterinary Journal","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125399369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
