The objective of this study was to explore the optimal incubating time of in vitro BrdU labeling for human umbilical cord blood - derived mononuclear cells (HUCB-MCs). The mononuclear cells were isolated by the standard density gradient technique and were labeled with 10 µM/L BrdU. Then, the cells were incubated at 37°C for 1, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively. Immunocytochemistery was performed respectively to calculate the labeling index and the cells' activity for different time. Efficacy of BrdU positive HUCB-MCs was evaluated by in vivo study in intra-cerebral hemorrhage (ICH) rat model. The current findings indicated that labeling ratio significantly increased after 24 incubating hours. Cell viability remained high (75%) after 24 h. There was a significant recovery in behavioral performance 2 weeks after HUCB-MCs infusion to ICH rats and BrdU+ cells were localized by immunohistochemistry in the injured area of brain. This study shows that the most appropriate time for BrdU labeling HUCB-MCs is 24 h and these BrdU+ cells have high efficacy and stability in cell therapy.

All these samples were tested for Brucella antibodies using the milk ring test (MRT), Rose Bengal plate test (RBPT) and indirect ELISA test on milk and serum. The prevalence of Brucella antibodies was higher in milk compared with serum samples.

There were association between the MRT and milk-ELISA (p < 0.01) and between RBPT and serum-ELISA (p < 0.05).

The isolates were tested against 14 antibiotics using the disc diffusion method. A total of 42 different antibiotics resistance profiles were observed, with each isolate showing resistance to at least four or more drugs tested. Generally, the 80 E. coli isolates showed resistance rates of 85% to Ampicillin; 90% to Cotrimaoxazole, 90% to Cephalothin; 77.5% to Streptomycin, 62.5% to Nitrofurantoin; 68.8% to Tetracycline; 55% to Chloramphenicol; 56.3% to Amoxicillin clavulanic acid; 58.8% to Cefpirome; 47.5% to Cefpodoxime; 43.8% to Cefotaxine; 22.5% to Ceftriaxone; 18.8% to Cefoxitin; 16.3% to Nalidixic acid and 12.5% to Gentamycin. Statistical analysis showed that average number of resistance phenotypes per isolate was significantly higher for goat and poultry compared with cattle and swine (P<0.0001).

Twenty four adult New Zealand white rabbits (male, weight: 2.5 to 3.0 kg) were randomly divided into four groups.

After preparing the operation site, the right radius was exposed, and a full thickness 5 mm defect was created in the mid-diaphyseal region. The defects were filled with DBM and hydroxyapatite in Group I, DBM in Group II, hydroxyapatite in Group III and Group IV was considered as a control group. The formation and healing of bone were determined by histological and mechanical analysis during 8 weeks. Implantation of combination of DBM and hydroxyapatite yielded significant (p < 0.05) bone formation resulting in histological, and mechanical evidence of union compared to other groups. The second group which received DBM showed better bone healing compared to the third group. No instances of union were observed in the hydroxyapatite and control groups.

Collection of data from the veterinary records, Veterinary drug centres, questionnaire and external parasites, faecal and blood samples from animals were carried out for one year. The clinical records showed that, parasitic diseases constitute a major problem, and formed 53% of the total diseases recorded in the clinical records. Veterinary drug centers records also revealed that, within parasitic drugs, anthelmentic drugs were the most used in high quantities constituting 48%, then blood parasites as 37% and external parasites drugs which were 15%. During the wet season, many cattle herds were found in a restricted area sharing the available water and pasture. There were no proper slaughter houses, and also disposal of the offals and carcasses during meat inspection. Cattle parasitic diseases were surveyed at four administrative units in the study area at Muglad, Mayram, Abyei and Dibab. Faecal samples, blood smear, ticks and biting flies were collected. The results of this survey showed the followings: the faecal samples from cattle using floatation and sedimentation methods showed that: Paramphistomum sp. constituted 11.25%, Fasciola gigantica 5.00% , Schistosoma bovis, 1.50%, Oesophagustomum sp. 2.50% , Moniezia sp. 0.63% and Eimeria sp. 4.38%. The occurrence of internal parasites was found higher during the wet season. Blood smear examination revealed that there were Theileria species and Babesia sp. at prevalence rates of 5.88 and 5.15% respectively. Theileria sp. was more prevalent in Muglad compared to other locations, while Babesia was more frequently detected in Mayram. It is noticeable that the overall prevalence is almost the same for the two parasites. Herds were found to be 100% infested with hard ticks. 9 different tick species were identified. They belong to three genera: Amblyomma, Hyalomma and Rhipicephalus. Identified tick species collected from cattle, sheep, goats and camel were: Amblyomma lepidum, Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Rhipicephalus evertsi, Rhipicephalus simus. simus, Boophilus decoloratus, Hyalomma marginatum rufipes, Hyalomma anatolicum excavatum, Hyalomma truncatum and Hyalomma dromedarii . The most abundant tick species were R. sanguineus (38.60%), A. lepidum (29.06%) and H. m. rufipes (27.91%). The total count of ticks showed that A. lepidum and Hyalomma m. rufipes were actively distributed throughout the year among the hosts with relative preference to cattle and camel. Similarly R. sanguineus had a significant distribution in sheep with restricted presence on other animal species. The biting flies identified revealed; Atylotus agrystus, Atylotus fuscipus, Tabanus taeniola and Ancala latipes .
