Determination of Nutritional Values of Some Rangeland Plants Species Grazed by Camels, Through Chemical Method and Nylon Bags Technique in Gadarif and North Kordofan States, Sudan A . Elsaid, Hassna.; . E . Elimam, Mohamed; H . Talib, Nuha.; M . Elbasheer, Salwa . This study has been carried to assess nutritional potential of some rangeland plants species (herbs, forbs, shrubs and trees) are grazed by camels in Gadarif and North Kordofan States, Sudan. The rangeland samples were chemically and biologically analyzed to evaluate their nutritional potential for camels through proximate analysis and in situ method. The study carried depended on randomized complete design with three fistulated camels in three replications and the data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results obtained revealed that, the rangeland plants species varied in nutritional content and characteristics of degradation. The content of crude protein )CP) was highest in Corchorus trilocularis (Mulukhia) (12.0%), however, the Grewia tenax (Gudaim) showed least value (6.7%). Boscia senegalensis (Mukheit) showed highest CP potential degradability , while the least was shown in Guiera senegalensis (Gubeish). The results revealed that, the effective degradability differed in plants species and decreased with increasing rates of outflow from the rumen. It is concluded that camels have significant feeds rumen degradation, therefore, we recommended to the use of information obtained to adopt modern ruminants nutrition systems in camels nutrition for efficient feeding and production.

and Histometrical Studies on the Small Intestine of the Dromedary Camel (Camelus dromedarius) A. ABUAGLA, IBRAHIM,; A. ALI, HASSAN,; M. ELNAGY, TAHANY, The small intestine was divided into the three parts; duodenum included cranial part (ampulla), descending and ascending duodenum, jejunum and ileum share a common histological pattern with some specific characteristics of their own. This investigation aimed to study the gross morphometry and histometrical measurements of small intestine of camel foetuses included the duodenum, jejunum and ileum in all trimesters. It was conducted on seventeen fresh specimens of small intestine in different trimesters and both sexes. These specimens used to measure the length, weight and volume. Nine foetuses in different trimesters were used for the histometric measurements. The results revealed significant differences between the gross morphometry of length, weight and volume of small intestine of camel foetuses in first, second and third trimesters, the respective lengths of the duodenum, jejunum and ileum in the first trimester were 2.1±0.22 cm, 21±3.71 cm and 1.7±0.60 cm; in the second trimester, they were 5.1±1.56 cm, 87.6±16.72 cm and 4.1±0.74 cm; in the third trimester, the measurements were 7.75±3.11 cm, 139.5±64.51 cm and 8.06±4.55 cm. The mean volume of small intestine was (75.65±79.34 cm³), whereas the mean weight of small intestine was (86.35±103.40 gm). The general histometric measurements of small intestine included length of villi, thickness of tunica mucosa, tunica submucosa, tunica muscularis and tunica serosa in all trimesters included duodenal ampulla, duodenum, jejunum and ileum. In conclusion, the results revealed highly significant differences in gross morphometry and histometry studies at all parts of small intestine during all trimesters.
