The research was conducted on 75 healthy and 55 anemic camels diagnosed with iron deficiency to establish serum iron, totaliron binding capacity (TIBC), unbound iron binding capacity (UIBC), transferrin saturation (TS %), copper and cobalt levels.The regular (40 males and 35 females) and anemic (24 males and 27 females) groups in Najaf governorate- Iraq, all aged 1-15years. Blood samples were collected were collected from the jugular veins into plain tubes and the separate sera was used forcalculating the parameters tested. Result showed that the means in normal and anemic camels were as follows; Serum ironconcentration was (13.5 ± 0.35) μmol/L and (9.2 ± 0.31) μmol/L respectively, TIBC (85.1 ± 1.8) μmol/L, (109.2 ± 2.1) μmol/Lrespectively, UIBC (70.5 ± 1.2) μmol/L, (98.2 ± 1.8) μmol/L respectively, TS% (12.7 ± 0.3)% , (6.9 ± 0.5) % respectively, serumcopper (12.2 ± 0.4) μmol/L, (7.5 ± 0.23) μmol/L respectively and serum cobalt (2.9 ± 0.14) μmol/L and (2.4 ± 0.25) μmol/Lrespectively. Morever, serum iron, TS % and copper decreased significantly (P<0.05). While, the serum TIBC and UIBC ofanemic camels increased significantly (P<0.05) compared to normal control. In both groups the concentrations of cobalt weremore or less close. Reference mean values of specific biochemical parameters at clinically normal and anemic camels withsignificant differences between them are recorded in the present data.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the extent of the effect of lactation on biochemical compounds in breast milk in Najaf governorate. Two hundred fourty samples of breast milk were collected from healthy mothers aged 18-30 years. Milk samples were collected from (3-11) month of breastfeeding. In Najaf city, 44 mothers were selected as volunteers to obtain fixed samples per month for analysis. moisture, ash, protein, lactose and fat were measured. The results indicate that there was an effect on the period of breast-feeding at the level of probability (p<0.05%) for fat, protein, lactose and moisture in breast milk. Lactose content increased but protein and fat decreased, while ash continued the same during the study period. Breast-feeding, Breast milk, lactose, protein, fat

The aim of this study was to find out the differences between infant formula samples and breast milk during the first year of lactation stage for the biochemical compounds. 240 samples of breast milk were collected from healthy mothers aged 18-30 (month 3-11) from breastfeeding from 44 mothers as volunteers to give fixed samples per month for analysis. Infant formal milk samples were collected from companies (Bebelac 1, 2; Similac1,2 and Guigos 1,2) from the local market in Najaf governorate. Moisture, ash, protein, lactose and fat were measured. The results showed that the differences between breast milk and Infant formula at the two periods (less than six months and beyond), where infant milk formula contain protein and fat in the first stage higher than breast milk while in the second stage, the fat percentage has decreased in the formula to become breast milk is the highest. The percentage of ash and moisture (after recovery from infant formula) was higher in infant formula than breast milk during the period of lactation (although there were no significant differences in ash). As well as for lactose, infant formula was higher during the study period with significant differences in both stages for the first year.
