Title: Bioecological Features of Some Feed, Poisonous and Noxious Plants on the Winter Pastures of the Mil Steppe in Azerbaijan
Authors: Asadova, Kamala
Abstract: The winter pastures of the Mil steppe are used as a source of forage in animal
husbandry by legal and physical persons. The bioecological features of main feed
and poisonous and noxious plants were investigated during field research. As well
as considering the bioecological features of dominant and subdominant species,
recommendations for rational usage and measures of improvement were prepared.2019-01-01T00:00:00ZAn Endowment (Al-waqf) Concept for the Supply of Medical Care: an Exploratory Study of the Sustainability of Health Insurance at Higher Institutions

Title: An Endowment (Al-waqf) Concept for the Supply of Medical Care: an Exploratory Study of the Sustainability of Health Insurance at Higher Institutions
Authors: Muhammed-Shittu, Abdul-Rahman Balogun
Abstract: Important here is the term endowment, meaning the devotion of assets or
properties, either directly or indirectly, to any charitable or religious institution or
cause, or to secure advantage or benefit for a person or persons. The purpose of this
study is to explore and represent the importance and utility of an endowment form
of sustenance for the infrastructures and/or amenities necessary for beneficiaries at
higher institutions. However, the specific aims and objectives of this study are to
ensure the availability and sustainability of standardized health services at Khazar
University by the application and implementation of a policy of endowment.
Khazar University is undoubtedly among the world’s fastest growing young
universities. Obviously, the university strives endlessly to provide services of
global standard to meet the challenges involved in competing with older, wellestablished
universities around the world. The study is exploratory in nature and
applies a phenomenological approach in presenting the concept of endowment and
how it is practised at many world class universities to provide and sustain the
necessary facilities at their various institutions of higher education. Following
exploration, this study proposes that stakeholders of Khazar University use
endowment to upgrade the university’s health and medical services to an advanced
level. The study highlights the practical experience of endowment-based
universities in different part of the world, including: Al-Azhar University in Egypt;
the University of Cordova in Spain; IIU- the Islamic University of Indonesia;
universities founded in Turkey; the King AbdulAziz University, and many
universities in Malaysia, of which the present study focuses on the International
Islamic University, Malaysia.2019-01-01T00:00:00ZChanges to Some Hormones and Glucose in the Blood of Rabbits Subjected to Physical Exertion and Regimes of Darkness and Light, and Subfetal Hypoxia of Ontogenesis

Title: Changes to Some Hormones and Glucose in the Blood of Rabbits Subjected to Physical Exertion and Regimes of Darkness and Light, and Subfetal Hypoxia of Ontogenesis
Authors: Hasanova, Konul Gasim
Abstract: As the main purpose of this article, we set the task of studying the mechanism of
changes in the parameters of melatonin, insulin, adrenaline and glucose in the
blood of rabbits that had undergone prefetal hypoxia of prenatal ontogenesis and
been subjected to physical exertion and light conditions in the postnatal period of
development. The article presents our research and its results. The purpose is to
study the effect of long-term "on" and "off" functions of the epiphysis on various
stressors, such as hypoxia and physical activity, and on physiological changes in
the performance of the pancreas and adrenal glands in rabbits. Based on the results
of the experiments, it was found that in physiologically epiphysectomized animals
of different ages contained in the light and dark regimes, melatonin levels fall with
increased insulin and rise with reduced insulin, and adrenaline levels fall from the
norm under the action of physical exercise and photoperiodic action, but rise as a
stress hormone during exercise with a reduction of melatonin. As numerous
experiments show, the results of our research confirm an inverse relationship
between melatonin and insulin, as well as between melatonin and adrenaline.
However, the results obtained during the light mode differ from those taken during
the dark mode, an increase in the level of melatonin is observed during physical
activity in the dark mode, and a decrease in the light mode. It was found that with
exercise and the photoperiodic factor in 30-day-old animals, in the circadian
rhythm during exercise and under illumination hormone levels increase at first and
then decrease in accordance with artificially created stress reactions.2019-01-01T00:00:00ZThe Effects of Savory (Satureja khuzistanica) Extract on Performance, Organ Weight, Blood Parameters and Immune Function in Heat Stressed Broilers

Title: The Effects of Savory (Satureja khuzistanica) Extract on Performance, Organ Weight, Blood Parameters and Immune Function in Heat Stressed Broilers
Authors: Yadegari, Mohammad; Ghahri, Hasan; Daneshyar, Mohsen
Abstract: An experiment was conducted to study the effect of savory (Satureja khuzistanica)
extract on the performance, organ weight, immune response and hepatic enzymes
in broiler chickens. 320 day-old Ross chickens were assigned to four distinct
treatments in a completely randomized design. Each treatment was administered to
four replicates of twenty birds. The variables were heat stress (34 ± 2 ˚C for 8
hours) and savory extract (0.4 ml/L) in drinking water. Feed intake (FI), weight
gain (WG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were measured in successive weeks of
the trial. The relative weights of different organs (dressing, breast, thigh, liver,
heart, spleen and bursa of Fabricius) determined at 42 days. The serum glucose and
blood plasma content of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine
aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were measured by blood
sampling at 42 days. Plasma IgG were quantified on days 21, 28, 35 and 42. The
savory extract did not affect FCR, or the relative weights of different organs
(P>0.05). BW and FI increased with savory oil inclusion (P<0.05). Further, the
savory extract reduced plasma glucose, AST and ALT in heat stressed broilers
significantly (P<0.05). ALP content also declined, but not significantly (P>0.05).
Blood IgG in heat stressed broilers, increased in every case of treatment with
savory extract (P<0.05). In conclusion, in conditions of heat stress, 0.4 ml/L of
savory extract improves economic proficiency in broiler flocks due to the
accumulation of minute advantages in increased WG, FI, improved IG and reduced
hepatic enzymes.2019-01-01T00:00:00Z
