The cactus cladodes and fruits of Opuntia ficus-indica contain vitamins, antioxidants and flavonoids; they are widely used in folk medicine for its health benefits such as hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, and antioxidant properties. The purpose of this study was to highlight the effect of Opuntia ficus-indica consumption on some biochemical parameters in diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: Sixty rats were divided into six groups (normal, untreated diabetic, diabetic rats’ groups treated with Opuntia cladode solution, fruit juice, combination of both and metformin). After four weeks, serum was collected to determine some biochemical parameters in different rats’ groups. Results: Treatment of diabetic rats with Opuntia cladode, fruit and combination revealed obvious elevation of body weight compared to the untreated diabetic rat group. There were significant reductions of fasting blood sugar level in all groups in relation to the untreated diabetic rats’ group with the highest reduction (59.6%) in rats treated with fruit juice. Urea concentration showed significant reductions in rats treated with fruit (38.16%). Cholesterol and triglyceride levels were significantly reduced compared to the untreated diabetic rat groups. Conclusion: Opuntia ficus-indica cladode, fruit and combination improve hyperglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, and renal function in diabetic experimental animals.

However, traditional composting methodologies have many constrains from the ecological and economic point of view. One of the most important economic constrains is the production of methane gas which is one of the Abdulhakim Bawadekji, Essam Abdel-Mawla and A. A. El-Bary 388 dangerous greenhouse gases responsible for the problem of climate changes. The other economic constrains is that it takes long time (3 to 6 months) for completing the operations. On the other hand, vermicompsoting is a fast technique for digestion of organic wastes and converting it into a valuable compost for the organic agriculture. In the present work, three composting materials were tested in our experiment for 90 days. The first one is Agricultural Crop Waste (W1), the second is poultry litter (W2) and the third is a mixture (V/V) of both of agricultural and poultry wastes (W3). It was found that the maximum produced vermicompost was in the third composting material. The outcomes propose that vermicompost can be presented as one of the innovations for organic agriculture applications.

So, the spirulina is useful and necessary for the growth of infants and very suitable for children, especially in the growth phase, the elderly and the visually appetite. It also, helps a lot in cases of general weakness, anemia and chronic constipation. Spirulina contain an selenium element (0.0488 mg/100 g) and many of the phytopigments such as chlorophyll and phycocyanin (1.472% and 14.18%), and those seen as a powerful antioxidan...

Eighty Albino rats (weighing about 250-300 g) were used in this study, they were randomly divided into 4 equal groups, each containing 20 rats as follows, group 1; control negative rats, group 2; rats administrated radish oil (300 mg/kg.b.w. orally); group 3: STZ diabetic rats (single intra-peritoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 60 mg/kg) and group 4: STZ diabetic rats treated with radish oil (300 mg/kg.b.w) . Blood samples and tissue specimens were collected from pancreas, liver and kidneys from all rats of all groups at 15, 30 and 45 days from the start of the experiment for biochemical and histopathological examinations respectively. The biochemical analysis revealed significant increase in lipase, α-amylase, AST, ALT, ALP, urea and creatinine levels in the serum of diabetic rats, while the diabetic rat treated wit...

To achieve this aim, the Egyptian Research Vessel “Salsabil” was used, deploying otter bottom trawl for fisheries data, CTD for collecting environmental parameters, and a bottom grab sampler for obtaining samples of benthos fauna. Moreover, diving was used to survey the under-water sea grass beds. The Gulf of Sallum supports a wide range of ecosystems, from the rich sea grass meadows and rocky reefs of the coastal zone, to the little seamounts. It is thus considered as a great resource for many economic fish species. Seagrass plants were found forming from scattered small areas to dense vegetation that covered extended areas of the sea floor. The macrobenthic community in the investigated area consisted from 57 species belong to seven groups, while fish populations contained more than 90 species. Speci...

The present experimental study was carried out on 80 Albino rats (weighing about 250-300 g) divided randomly into 4 equal groups, 20 rats each. Group 1; served as control , group 2: spirulina treated rats (200 mg/kg.b.w), group 3; STZ diabetic rats (single intra-peritoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 60 mg/kg) and group 4; diabetic rats treated with spirulina (200 mg/kg.b.w) . Serum samples and tissue specimens were collected from pancreas, liver and kidneys at 15, 30 and 45 days post experiment for biochemical and histopathological examinations respectively. The biochemical results revealed significant increase in lipase, α-amylase , AST , ALT , ALP , urea and creatinine levels in the serum of diabetic rats, whereas, the diabetic rat treated with Spirulina showed decrease in those biochemical parameters. The histopathological alterations observed in the pancreas of diabetic rats were vacuolation of epithelial lining pancreatic acini, necrosis and atrophy of β-cells of islets of Langerhans. Concerning liver of diabetic rats, it showed dilatation and congestion of hepatic sinusoids and activation of kupffer cells with dissociation of hepatic cords and cytoplasmic vacuolation of hepatocytes. The renal parenchyma of diabetic rats showed marked congestion of glomerular tuft and intertubular blood capillaries with necrobiotic changes and necrosis of renal tubular epithelium associated with focal mononuclear cell infiltration. Marked improvement in the histopathological picture was noticed in the pancreas, liver and kidneys of diabetic rats treated with Spirulina platensis. From the observed results we could concluded that Spirulina platensis contains many antioxidant compounds that could stimulate regeneration and reactivation of B- cells to produce more insulin and this improvement was confirmed by the biochemical parameters and histopathological findings in the pancreas, liver and kidneys.
