This study was conducted to investigate the effect of milk supplemented with organic iron on performance, blood hematology, iron metabolism parameters, biochemical and immunological parameters in suckling lambs. Thirty-six newborn Dalagh lambs were randomly divided into three groups with 12 replications. The control group was fed with milk without organic iron. The other two groups were fed milk supplemented with 25 and 50 mg/d organic iron, respectively. During the experiment, increased daily weight gain and total body weight were observed in the iron-supplemented groups. An increase in the levels of red blood cell, hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, and mean corpuscular concentration in iron supplemented groups was indicated. Consumption of organic iron caused a significant decrease in plasma copper concentration. Total antioxidant status level was lower, but levels of glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and catalase were higher in iron supplemented groups. In organic iron supplemented groups, insulin and thyroid hormones levels were significantly increased, and glucose level was significantly decreased. In organic iron supplemented groups, alkaline phosphatase level significantly increased, and aminotransferase level significantly decreased. Overall, the use of organic iron in the milk improved the performance and health in suckling lambs, and since a lower level of supplementation is naturally preferable, supplementation of milk with 25 mg/d organic iron is recommended.

Nematode contagion is a core impediment to the profitable dairy production for livestock farms. Gastrointestinal (GI) parasitism causes weight loss and low milk production, along with high mortality in sheep and goat. The current intensive anthelmintics therapies to control parasitic burden resulted in the appearance of drug resistant parasitic strains. Due to high demand of unadulterated animal products free from drugs motivated alternative strategies for improvement; including breeding plans for parasite control in ruminants. The increase of protective resistance to nematode infections, host genome show particular expression that is frequently confused by mechanisms concurrently essential to control multiple nematodes species as well as protozoan ecto-parasites, viral and microbial pathogens. The involved molecular mechanisms under these developments correspond to crucial steps toward improvement of efficient new parasite control strategies. Knowledge of various immunity methods of host and regulation of development of parasite, physiology, and virulence is able to identify the objective of parasite control. This review recapitulate current evolution and restrictions of optimistic regulatory biological pathways and genetic networks that concern with susceptibility and host resistance to infection of GI nematode in ruminants.

Detection of pesticides residues in milk of ruminants represents a human public health hazardous. In this study, milk was monitored using Gas chromatography (GC), for one organochlorine pesticide residue dielderin and high performance liquid chromatography( HPLC) for deltamethrin as pyrothroid pesticide residues to determine the degree of environmental pollution with both of them .The study included examination of 60 milk samples (30 fresh dairy milk which were collected from some farms at Assiut Governorate and 30 ultra-heated milk (UHT), which collected from different shops and supermarkets at Assiut Governorate.The results of the study revealed that 30% of raw milk samples were polluted with dieldrin pesticide residue and 20% were polluted with deltamethrin pesticide residue while (13.33%) of UHT milk samples were polluted with dieldrin pesticide residue and 6.66% were polluted with deltamethrin pesticide residue.The mean concentration of dieldrin and deltamethrin pesticide residues in raw milk were 210.1 ± 126.7ppb and 100.0 ± 83.8 ppb respectively, while in the ultra-heated milk samples, the mean concentration of dieldrin and deltamethrin pesticide residues were 98.0.25±63.0 ppb and 18.0 ±8.55 ppb respectively.On comparison of the data recommended by the Food and Agricultural organization/ World Health Organization (FAO/WHO 2008), it was found that none of obtained values exceeded the recommended values. The results of this work indicated that in spite of the banning much of organochlorine and pyrothroid pesticides still contaminating the environment resulting in contamination of food stuffs, particularly milk. There is a potential risk of the consumption of such contaminated milk on human's health particularly infants and children.
