Abstract
Twilve females baladi goats were used in this study which carried out for five months at the Department of Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases, Faculty of Vet. Med., Cairo University. Giza. The immature females weighed 8-12 kg were randomly alloted into two groups, the control group (N=4) fed on 750 g maintenance ration/head/daily, and the tested group (N=8) given the same basal ration supplemented with 100 g/animal of Nigella sativa cake (NSC). Careful clinical examination of goats throughout the experiment revealed that the tested group was improved in general health and body weight in comparison to the control group. The final body weight and body weight gain were significantly higher (P < 0.01) in does with NSC group than the control group. Analysis of rumen liquor revealed that the total volatile fatty acids (TVFAs) was significantly increased (P < 0.05) in NSC group than control, while the values of pH and ammonia were not changed. Supplementation with Nigella sativa cake (NSC) increase significantly the molar proportion of propionate (P<0.01), decrease significantly the molar pro- portion of acetate (P < 0.01) and not affect the molar proportion of butyrate and isovalerate. The plasma proteinogram profile showed non significant decrease in total proteins and albumin while the globulin was non significantly increased in NSC group versus the control. The plasma lipogram profile revealed significant decrease in cholesterol (P<0.01) and insignifi cant decrease of total lipids and triglycerides in NSC group. The erythron showed significant increase of haemoglobin (P < 0.01). haematocrite (P < 0.05) and RBCs count (P < 0.05) in the tested group (NSC) in comparison to the control. The leucon revealed significant
