دراسة كثافة الحليمات الكرشية في مناطق مختلفة من كرش الأغنام العواسية

الملخص EN

The work aimed to study the ruminal papillary density in different and limited regions of rumen of local Awassi sheep .10 rumens from male Awassi sheep of 8-9 months were taken .From each rumen three regions were selected i.e.

: The anterior sac ,the ventral sac and caudoventral blind sac.

One circular specimen from each region were taken and processed for calculation of papillary density as well as correct factor finding .The actual ruminal papillary density was calculated (taking in consideration the shrinkage of ruminal tissue in each region) .The density of the papillae of the anterior sac was 56.43 /cm2, in ventral sac the papillary density was 53.80/cm2.

In the caudoventral blind sac , the density was 62.89/cm2.It may be concluded that the variation of the papillary density in different regions are related to the variation which had occure due to the shrinkage degree of the ruminal tissue in different regions
