| Abstract |
ABSTRACT
A Survey was carried out on 130 kid-goats aged from 2 days to 3 months, from different private farms in El-Mounofia and Kalubia Governorates. Out of these animals, 100 were suffering from diarrhoea. Bacteriological examination of the faecal samples revealed the presence of E. colj (58%), Salmonella, (27%), and Shigella (15%), as the main causative agents of diarrhoea. They were sensitive to common antibiotics and less sensitive to 10% garlic extract and 40% Hibiscous subdaril'a. Haematological studies revealed significant decrease in haemoglobin content (Mb), erythrocytic (RBCs) count. On contrary, haematocrit value (PCV%) showed significant increase in affected animals. A significant decrease was detected in the values of serum total proteins, albumin, iron, copper, and growth hormone. On the other hand, there was a significant increase in Cortisol hormone, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and alkaline phosphatase enzymes. The authors emphasize that the demonstrated diarrhoea caused many harmful clinicopaihoiogieal effects, reduced growth hormone, and caused severe anaemia in kid-goats.
