Abstract

The aim of present research to study the effects of crushed seeds of Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) on some physiological parameters in rabbits. Thirty mature male rabbits, (aged 87-100 days),were divided randomly into three equal groups. First group (control) fed the basal diet along the experimental period,2nd and 3rd groups (T1 and T2) fed the basal diet mixed with 3% and 6%,respectively. At the end of experiment,blood samples were collected from ear vein for counting the red blood cells (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs),estimating Hemoglobin concentration (Hb) and packed cell volume (PVC). Total protein,albumin,globulin,blood glucose,GOT and GPT concentrations were estimated in blood serum. The results showed significant increase (P<0.05) of RBCs,WBCs,Hb and PCV levels in T1 and T2 groups when compared with control group. As well as,The results of total protein and globulin increased significantly in two treated groups in comparison with control groups. While,the results of glucose,GOT and GPT levels showed a significant decrement (P<0.05) in T1 and T2 groups compared with control group. Therefore,it was concluded that the use of Coriander seeds powder can affected positively on some physiological traits in rabbits.
