| Abstract | ||
| This study was conducted to find out the long-term effect of chlorine and disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water on some, hygienic and oxidative stress parameters in local female rabbits, this experimented was carried out in animal farm/ veterinary medical college Baghdad University during the period from 15th December 2015 up to 15th June 2016. Thirty two local female rabbits were used at age of approximately 2.5-3 months and randomly designed equally in four groups (eight female) per group body weight was considered as the following: First group (free of chlorine boiling water group) as a control group, second (tap water group), third (chlorine 2 ppm group), fourth (chlorine 4 ppm group). All groups were daily fed on concentrated feed (pellet 75 gm/ head), all group were offered alfalfa and specific water each group freely. Blood samples were collected and serum samples were obtained to measurement the hemoglobin concentration (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione were calculated to detect hygienic and oxidative stress parameters. Data were statistically analyzed, the result of this study were revealed the existence of significant (P<0.05) and non significant differences to some hygienic and oxidative stress traits among groups of different periods, also the results of second group and for hygienic parameter (Hb, PCV) (16.12±0.19) (43.40±0.30) and third, fourth groups result revealed (1.00±0.001) (1.02±0.002) for malondialdehyde, also second group result revealed (0.26±0.001) for glutathione as oxidative stress parameters. Accordingly, it could be concluded from this study that the long-term effect of chlorine and disinfection by-products (DBPs) in water lead to many changes in some hygienic traits in rabbits compare with tap water during utilization water in improving the hygienic traits so that water quality had direct effect on the animal health | ||
