Economic Efficiency of Fish Hatcheries in Fayoum Governorate: Data Envelopment Analysis Model (DEA) الکفاءة الاقتصادية للمفرخات السمکية في محافظة الفيوم: نموذج تحليل مغلف البيانات

This research aims at measuring the economic efficiency of fish hatcheries in Fayoum governorate, where a primary data of five licensed operating fish hatcheries was used to achieve this aim. Results revealed that economic efficiency in case of a constant return to scale was totally achieved in the first hatchery, while it was also high in both the second and fifth hatcheries by about 95% and 99%, respectively. The least efficient hatcheries were the third and the fourth hatcheries with an efficiency of about 89% and 82% respectively. Therefore there is a need to increase production in both hatcheries by 11% and 18% respectively to reach the optimum size. The economic efficiency in the case of a variable return to scale was estimated too, where efficiency index was one in the first, fourth, and fifth hatcheries, while the economic efficiency was also high in both the second and the third hatcheries by about 95% and 90% respectively. Fish hatcheries in Fayoum governorate suffer from various problems such as, decreased quantities of agricultural drainage water received, marketing inabilities of fish hatcheries’ owners, weak financing capacity of fish hatcheries’ holders, difficult licensing procedures, and high prices of production inputs used in fish hatching process. The study recommends expanding the establishment of fish hatcheries in the Fayoum governorate, as they produce the basic core of fish farming, which is the fry, with an emphasize on the need to overcome the problems and obstacles it faces.

Estimation of the Most Widespread Pesticides in Agricultural Soils Collected from Some Egyptian Governorates

Pesticides are usually used in agriculture practice for field and post-harvest protection, whereas their prolonged persistence in the environment may lead to high toxicity to humans and animals. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the detection of different pesticide residues in agricultural soil samples collected from four Egyptian governorates. A total of forty agricultural soil samples were collected during the period from April to June 2020. Samples were extracted using a QuEChERS method and analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Data revealed that agricultural soil samples from Damietta governorate were highly contaminated (80.00%) by different pesticide residues, followed by Fayoum (40.00%), Menia (36.36%), and Alexandria (10.00%) governorates. The pesticide residues detected in soil samples belonged to the following chemical groups; triazole (21.43%), organophosphate, neonicotinoid, and pyrethroid (10.71%), and others. Among the insecticides detected in soil samples from Damietta governorate were malathion, acetamiprid, and methomyl at concentrations of 10.315, 0.725, and 0.395 mg/kg respectively. The fungicide carbendazim was also detected in soil samples from Damietta governorate at a concentration of 18.303 mg/kg. Meanwhile, in Alexandria governorate, no fungicides were detected in soil samples. The herbicide, oxyfluorfen was detected in soil samples from Menia governorate, whereas pendimethalin and thiobencarb were detected in soil samples from Damietta governorate. Data also revealed that herbicides were not detected in soil samples from both Alexandria and Fayoum governorates. This study shed light on the presence of different pesticide residues in agricultural soil samples in Egypt, and which may affect agricultural products grown on contaminated agricultural soil.

Domestic Violence against Widow Stepmothers: A Cross-Sectional Study for prevalence, Risk Factors and Psychological Effects.

The prevalence of domestic violence nowadays resembles a cancer due to its wide spread and diffusion within the societies and it has a profound effect on the well-being of the victim causing deep psychological distress. A cross- sectional study was done on three hundreds widow in urban and rural areas in Fayoum governorate of Egypt after death of their husband and in presence of another widow of the same husband. The aim of the present study is to detect the prevalence of violence, risk factors affecting that violence against widow stepmother along with the motives for such violence and psychological effects of violence on widow stepmothers. The study showed that the risk factors for that abuse of the victims depend on the education state of the abused victim, family strength of the abused, presence of a private income and independency of the victim, presence or absence of another widow, and presence or absence of siblings. The motives for that abuse were mainly due to substance related to fortune, jealousy between women, the declaration of marriage after death of the husband and sometimes due to basic needs of the victim or even unspecified or undetermined. Widow stepmothers were affected tremendously by such events in the form of depression, post-traumatic stress disorder or sleep disturbance . Governments , civil community organizations, families and religion men should face such a problem , raise awareness of people regarding the problem and try to find a solution for. Further research should be done to detect the real cause and predisposing factors for domestic violence against widow stepmothers and if the cause of violence was due to their past history of their violence against husband siblings.

Risk factors and Molecular genotyping of Brucella melitensis strains recovered from humans and their owned cattle in Upper Egypt

Brucellosis is a zoonosis that has a devastating impact on the economy and public health, particularly in the Middle East, including Egypt. This study aimed to define risk factors associated with brucellosis in humans and in their cattle in Fayoum governorate - Upper Egypt. Also, molecular genotyping of recovered Brucella isolates from human cases and their cattle to assess the potential cross-species transmission in the study region. Data were obtained via double matched case–control studies for brucellosis in humans (106 cases and 160 controls) and in their cattle (78 cattle cases and 105 cattle controls). The results of multivariate regression analysis revealed that predictors of human brucellosis were animal-related occupations (OR 2.1, P 0.02), previous infection in other household members (OR 3.2, P 0.007), eating home-made soft cheese (OR 2.3, P 0.03), and exposure to cattle abortions (OR 6.9, P < 0.001). For cattle, predictors of brucellosis were maturity ≥2 years of age (OR 2.9, P 0.01), ≥2 animals reared by the same household (OR 3.7–6.9, P ≤ 0.001), and recent abortion (OR 15.2, P 0.01). Twelve Brucella isolates were recovered from eight human cases (7.5%, 8/106) and four cattle cases (6.2%, 4/65). All isolates were B. melitensis biovar 3. Analysis of the IS711 gene sequence revealed complete homology (100%) between isolates. Six virulence genes were utilized for virutyping: virB (100%), omp25 (100%), amiC (100%), ure (91.7%), wbkA (91.7%), and bvfA (75%). Virutyping revealed four virutypes: V1 (lack bvfA, 16.7%), V2 (harbored all genes, 66.7%), V3 (lack wbkA, 8.3%), and V4 (lack wbkA and ure, 8.3%). Repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR (REP-PCR) typing revealed two REP types. Combined REP-PCR/virulence genotyping revealed five different genotypes (G1–G5) for the detected isolates and a unique genotype for the reference strain (G6, B. melitensis bv3 Ether). Human and cattle isolates from the same household had matched genotypes. In conclusion, there were widespread risk factors among the cases studied. Health education for high-risk groups is essential for disease prevention, and combined REP-PCR/virulence genotyping is a quick tool for traceability, particularly in developing countries endemic with brucellosis as Egypt.

Fish-borne zoonotic trematodes (FBZT) are extremely important zoonotically and can infect humans via the consumption of poorly cooked fish containing active metacercariae. In this context, the present study aimed to update the epidemiological information of FBZT among Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) collected from Giza and Fayoum Governorates. Concerning the molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of adult flukes from experimentally infected pigeons and histopathological alterations of both larval and adult trematode flukes. Oreochromis niloticus were found to be infected with different encysted metacercaria (EMC); Prohemistomum, Haplorchis and Pygidiopsis species from wild caught in Giza and farmed fish in Fayoum with the total mean of prevalence that 81.89 ± 6.48, 18.03 ± 2.9 and 34.64 ± 3.42 respectively. Three recovered flukes from experimentally infected domestic pigeons (Columba livia domestica); Prohemistomum vivax, Haplorchis pumilio and Pygidiopsis genata in their small intestine. First molecular characterization and phylogenetic analysis of heterophyid flukes; P. genata and H. pumilio. The sequences obtained in this study were registered in the GenBank with accession numbers (MT672308.1 and MT707975.1) respectively. Moreover, constructing a phylogeny and phylogenetic relationships between two heterophyid species was performed through analytic study of the second internal transcribed spacer nuclear ribosomal genes (rDNA-ITS2). Phylogenetic analysis of P. genata and H. pumilio showed 99.42% nucleotide similarity with that sequence from Israel (AY245710) and 99.71% from Vietnam (EU826636.1). In addition, histopathological alterations of EMC and adult flukes induced necrosis of fish muscle bundles and a severe inflammatory response with muscular necrosis in intestinal tract of infected pigeons.
