Twenty four pregnant Awassi ewes were used in this study, and were randomly assigned into three groups, first group, were drinking tap water and regarded as control group, second and third groups were drinking amagnetic -treated water with 500 and 1000 gauss respectively. To study the effect of magnetic water intensities on milk production before weaning, commercial, daily and total milk production, milk composition, hematological, biochemical parameters of ewes and lambs growth. All groups of ewes were fed on the same ration during the experimental period. Results indicated that increasing magnetic water intensities from zero (tap water) to 1000 gauss (third group) had significantly (P<0,05) increased milk yield before weaning, commercial, daily and total milk production by 23.03 kg, 10.51 kg, 33.54 kg, and 149 g, respectively. Percentages of protein, fat and total solid of milk, some hematological (RBC, WBC, HB and percentage of lymphocytes cell), biochemical (total proteinand globulin) parameters, and which finally increased significantly weight of lambs and ewes. While no significant effect was found between first (tap water) and second (500 gauss) groups, and between second (500 gauss water) and third (1000 gauss) groups in all traits studied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
