Hypercholesterolemia was confirmed by significant elevation of total cholesterol. The protective role of those treatments was confirmed by the significant reduction in the elevated liver enzymes (AST, ALT and ALP levels) and increase in total antioxidant capacity (TAC), catalase (CAT) activity and glutathione reduced (GSH) levels , while malondialdehyde (MDA) levels was significantly reduced when compared with hypercholesterolemic group.

Moreover, the accumulation of organic debris on tools used in the hatchery facility assists the spread of infectious diseases. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of different iodophor concentrations (10, 50, 100 and 150 ppm) for different contact times (5, 10 and 15 min) on total bacterial count (TBC) and total fungal count (TFC) and hence on the hatchability percentage of tilapia eggs. In addition, the effect of common salt (NaCl), sunlight exposure, 1% Halamid®, 1% Virkon S® and 3% Aquazix® for contact times (5, 10 and 15 min) in reducing TBC and TFC on hatchery equipment (buckets, nets and dishes)was also evaluated. Iodophor treatment at 10 ppm for 15 min resulted in significant reduction of both TBC and TFC on tilapia eggs by ≥ 4 log10 reductions but failed to achieve complete disinfection of egg surface. Conversely, 50 ppm or higher iodophor concentrations did not display antimicrobial activity after all tested contact times. Hatchability percentage was insignificantly different between 0 ppm (90%) and 10 ppm (94%) of iodophor. However, 10 ppm iodophor was significantly different (P < 0.05) from 50 ppm (85%) and 100 ppm (65%). At 150 ppm, there was no hatchability. After application of different disinfectants, limited to general bactericidal activity of ≥ 4 log10 reduction was observed in common salt (NaCl 150 g /7 liters) after 15 min in dishes only, sunlight exposure after 10 min in dishes onlyand 3% Aquazix after 15 min in all tools.

Fifteen anestrous pure Arabian mares divided randomly into 2 groups, group (1) five mares and serve as a control, while Group (2) ten mares treated with 1.1 mg/kg domperidone for 25 days. Ultrasonographic scan was performed twice per week for detection of ovarian activity and follicular growth. Blood samples were collected one month before the treatment for 3 times with 10 days intervals for detection of progesterone, and twice per week after treatment till 10 days after the end of treatment for determination of progesterone, estrogen and prolactin hormones in addition to total protein, total cholesterol and triglycerides, before and after response for treatment. Eight mares (80%) showed ovulation and CL formation from the domperedone treated group while 2 mares (20%) showed no large follicles formation till the end of the trial period. The obtained results showed a significant increase in progesterone, estradiol and prolactin concentration in treated group compared to control one at 3rd and 4th week from treatment, while cholesterol level showed significant increase in treated group compared to control at 3rd week of treatment.
