Abstract

The study concluded that the assessment of the Euphrates River water quality in the Samawah area using the Canadian Water Quality Index (CWQI) and water quality standards for animal consumption showed variation in water quality among the studied sites. Site 1 (M1) was classified as "poor" with an index of 42.32, indicating continuous pollution, while the other sites (M2–M6) were rated as "moderate" with indices ranging from 75.25 to 75.75, indicating partial protection with some deviations from optimal standards. The results also showed that concentrations of sulfates, sodium, and chlorides exceeded the permissible limits according to the Tóth and Fitzsimmons (1962) standards, which may cause digestive disorders such as diarrhea, mineral toxicity, and imbalance of salts and fluids in the animal body. Additionally, electrical conductivity (EC) measurements at some sites exceeded the safe limits for animal consumption according to Ayers and Westcot (1989), which could negatively affect the health of ruminants and poultry. These findings underscore the urgent need to monitor pollution sources and treat water before using it for animal drinking or irrigation purposes, emphasizing the importance of further studies to identify the main sources of pollution and to develop sustainable water resource management plans in the region.

Abstract

The present study aimed at the pancreas of two bird species differs in their classification, habitat, nutrition, and activity. The birds were omnivorous Black Francolin(francolinus) and carnivorous Barn Owl (Tyto alba). Histologically the pancreas of these birds was covered by a thin layer of connective tissue capsule formed from reticular, elastic, and few collagenous fibers, this capsule in barn owl appear thicker than that found in black francolin birds. The parenchyma of pancreas in both birds were composed mainly from exocrine portion represented by serous acini and endocrine portion which distributed among acini which represented by islets of Langerhans. The endocrine gland of the pancreas showed that the islets of Langerhans, have two types of cells, the first one is alpha cells shown as a spindle in shape with oval nuclei, located periphery of the islets of Langerhans. The second type was beta cells show as rows or irregular polygonal cells with spherical nuclei that is slightly larger than the nuclei of alpha cells and found in the center of islets. These cells were located in the periphery of the island of Langerhans in both birds. Histochemical results reveal that the pancreatic cells, whether the acinar cells or islets cells are moderately positive in both species of birds.
