The Gaza Strip (365 km2) of Palestine (27,000 km2) is home to a wealth of terrestrial vertebrate fauna. Some of these faunistic species find their ways to preservation at the local universities. Hence, the current study comes to document the Palestinian terrestrial vertebrate fauna acquired by the biology exhibitions (BEs) of Al-Azhar University, Islamic University of Gaza and Al-Aqsa University that are located at the Gaza City of the Gaza Strip. The amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals preserved at BEs of the universities in question were surveyed and scientifically classified during a three-month period extending from January to March, 2012. The study showed that all BEs of local universities are underdeveloped, lacking attention and suffer from specimen scarcity and good preservation. The BE at Al-Azhar University is the best in the arrangement and preservation of bird specimens. A total number of 200 specimens belonging to 54 terrestrial vertebrate fauna species, 39 families and 17 orders was recorded at BEs. Reptiles constituted 40.7% of the total species recorded, followed by birds (38.9%), mammals (14.8%) and amphibians (5.6%). The Islamic University of Gaza was considered the best in terms of the number of preserved species (39.8%), followed by Al-Azhar University (36.3%) and Al-Aqsa University (23.9%). The Common Toad (Bufo viridis) was the most preserved among the amphibian species recorded. Squamata was the biggest reptilian order, comprising 20 species (8 lizards and 12 snakes), with the Syrian Black Snake (Coluber jugularis asianus) was the commonest. The Palestine Viper (Vipera palaestinae) is endemic to Palestine and most venomous and dangerous to human health. The Great White Pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus) was the largest Palestinian bird preserved at BE of Al-Azhar University. The Egyptian Mongoose (Herpestes ichneumon) and the Common Badger (Meles meles) were the biggest mammalian specimens preserved, while the Palestine Mole-rat (Spalax leucodon ehrenbergi) was the only Palestine endemic species encountered among the preserved mammals. Finally, the improvement of BEs of local universities and the construction of a Central Museum of Natural History is highly recommended in order to change the Palestinians' attitudes toward a sustainable ecological conservation in the Gaza Strip.

This study have shown the comparison between the effect exposure to the noise and electromagnetic waves radiation on rabbit. Environmental noise and electromagnetic fields are a known stressful factor that induces alterations of various physiological responses in the exposed individuals. The electromagnetic field applied was generated by using an antenna installed at the laboratory of Islamic University of Gaza. The mobile system used in Gaza is GSM with frequency equals 900 MHz. The antenna place at 20 cm away from the animals such that the whole body exposed to the electromagnetic field on the days of the test the rabbits were brought to the laboratory. The experiment was conducted at Gaza strip laboratory. Twenty two adult male rabbit were used throughout the study. Rabbits were randomly divided into three groups. The first group consists of ten rabbits (w1000-1200gm) served as the control group. During the course of the study the animals were housed in pairs in the animal house with food and water and kept under standard environmental conditions for light (12: 12 h light: dark cycle) temperature (27°C). The second group was subjected to the noise levels (60-70 dB) for 18 days. The animals were exposed to noise product from generator with 1KW and dimension of 1200 mmx1100 mmx1300 mm. They exposure for 3-4 hour in each day. The third one of animals were exposed to split dose of electromagnetic field with constant power in the range from (1.4-4.7) mw/cm 2 and electric field with the range (60-130) V/m. The treated animals were subjected to electromagnetic field for eight hours then rest eight hours without exposure. The process of exposure and rest for the same time interval were repeated for two weeks. Animals from both control and experimental groups were decapitated at the end of the experiment. Blood samples were collected in 10 ml plain tubes for serum preparation. The effect of electromagnetic exposure is greater than noise one in urea, uric acid, creatinine, Alpha., AST, ALT and PLT. Exposure to noise caused increase triglycerides, white blood cell counts, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. It was found to be directly related to the duration of exposure, the intensity and the characteristics of the noise with loud intermittent noise and longer duration of exposure producing more analgesia.

According to the spread and raised of using mobile phones in recent year and has become necessary in our modern life, Many research studied the effect of electromagnetic mobile radiation on life tissue. this study aims to investigate the effects of mobile base station radiation with global system mobile frequency 900 MHz on children blood and protective role of olive oil supplementation. The study included three groups. The first group (20 children) as normal control. The second group (30 children) exposed to electromagnetic field, the third group (30 children) exposed to mobile radiation, this group was given 2.5 ml/day olive oil supplementation for 5 weeks. All of them participate filled questionnaire including detailed about health, Behavior, and Physical conditions. Blood samples were measured to investigate CBC. In the results, Concerning hematological parameters, the more obvious changes were observed in the increment of WBC, lymphocyte, Mean corpuscular volum (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), and decrease in hematocrit, Hemoglobin concentration (Hb), red blood cell (RBC), and platelet count (PLT) in response to the exposure to mobile radiation alone. Signs of improvements in the previous hematological parameters were noticed during treatments with electromagnetic field in addition to olive oil supplementation.

The study aimed to investigate haematological and biochemical alterations associated with shortterm intraperitoneal sublethal (1/10 LD 50, 2 mg/kg body weight) methomyl administration to male albino rats over two and five days, and also the effects of a two-week recovery period. Methomyl administration over five but not two days decreased mean corpuscular hemoglobin and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. A number of blood biochemical parameters increased (serum glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, urea, uric acid, creatinine) or decreased (globulin); a recovery period returned many entirely or nearly to control levels. Enzyme activities (ALP, ALT, AST) and bilirubin levels increased following methomyl treatment, but again returned to control levels following a recovery period. We conclude that short low doses of methomyl can harm the blood, kidney and liver of rats.
