The occurance of tick infestation in cattle, sheep, goats and camels was 60%, 71.4%, 53% and 46 % respectively. Sampled ticks of Rhipicephalus species have been identified as; Rhipiephalus sanguineus (37.9%) Rhipiephalus bursa (49.8%) and Rhipicephalus turanicus (12.23%). All three species adopted in ecological zone II but Rhipicephalus sanguineus was the main tick species found in four zones ofIran.

In wet smear prepared from intestine wall, a kind of protozoa spore of Microsporidia phylum was observed that was not the agent of pebrin disease, and some budding cells (yeasts) were seen as well, which identified as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. There were many polyhedra forms in smears of hemolynph that were stained with methylen blue dying and seen with ordinary microscope, diagnosed as Polyhedrosis or Grasserie disease (NPV). for the purpose of diagnostic reconfirmation, the polyhedra was injected to healthy larva. The bacterial agent including Streptococcus (8)Hemolytica as digestive tracts disease agent, staphylococcus aureus, and Serratia marcescen as septicemia agents and Bacillus turingensis the agent of Sotto disease, were separated. In general the incidence of these diseases showed the unsuitable conditions in sericultures that can be depends on poor disinfection, lack of proper feeding and deficiency of temperature and humidity. Improvement in rearing techniques, using of appropriate rearing room and equipments, maintenance of hygienic conditions during rearing, improvement of disinfection methods, the quarantine of the silkworm seeds and using of resistant varieties of silkworm to diseases can decrease out-breaks.For investination of causes of silkworm mortality, the sick larva specimens in different levels of growth examined for parasite, viral,fungal and bacterial diseases.

Clinical examinations were carried out and the faecal or tissue (if calve was euthanized or dead) samples were collected for bacterial culture. The results were analyzed with Chi-square statistical test. Salmonella spp was isolated from 18 samples of 132(13.6%). Salmonella isolates belonged to 4 serogroups D, B, Cl and C2. Clinical signs Observed in 6 forms: chronic entritis(33.3%), septicemia(27.8%), Acute enteritis(22 %), dry gangrene of exterimities( 5.5 % ), pneumoenteritis( 5.5 % ) and polyarthritis( 5.5 % ). Eight of 18 salmonelleic calves (44.4%) died and 7 (38.9%) euthanized because of prolonging disease and not response to treatment. Occurrence of salmonellosis was signifiantly higher in calves with 1.5 to 3 month of ages (p <0.05). The prevalence of salmonellosis was higher in summer and winter and was more in calves that were held in hutches, but the differences were not significant. Most common clinical forms of salmonellosis were chronic enteritis, acute enteritis and septicemia. Most of salmonella isolates belonged to serogroup D (61.2%).Considering Other studies and results of this research, the serogroup D salmonella apear to be the most common cause of salmonellosis in calves in dairy farms around Tehran.The clinical features of salmonellosis and prevalence of salmonella serogroups in calves were studied on one hundred and thirty two suspected calves in dairy farms around Tehran.

All Salmonella isolates were confirmed by peR method using specific invA genes. Antibacterial activity of 8 routine antibiotics including tylosin, gentamycin, kanamycin, neomycin, tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chloramphenicol and sulfadiazine on the isolated bacteria was evaluated by disk diffusion method. Isolated bacteria from faeces of healthy dogs were as follow: Escherichia coli (27.27%), Proteus mirabilis (23.38%), Lactobacilli (19.48%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (11.69%), Staphylococcus aureus (5.19%), Bacillus cereus (4.49%), Corynebacteria (3.90%), and Clostridium perfringens (2.60%).

This technique has been used from 1987 in different aspect of human surgery. In addition to diagnosis, biopsy, visualizing adhesion and neoplastic structure, recently cholecystectomy and ovariohysterectomy were also commonly being used as a therapeutic measure. Different investigations using laparoscope, indicate superiority of this technique as compare to that of conventional open surgery method in areas of pain, time, hospitalization, anatomical dissection, immunity reaction, cosmetic appearance, adhesion and wound involved. Veterinary laparoscopic technique use nowadays is also being extensively increasing in different organs Gasterointestinal laparoscopic surgery is routinely being performed to remove foreign body, neoplasia, obstruction, duodenal and pyloric wound.Looking to future light for improving usage oflaparoscopic technique in research and clinical aspect plus improving the concept of reducing pain and surgical complications, It is extremely necessary to take proper decision/action to improve research out come in near future for application oflaparoscopic tools in abdominal surgey. Conclusion: Laparoscopic surgeries in gastrointestinal tract have several advantages. Reduction in the period of postoperative intestinal paralysis so that gastrointestinal function returns more rapidly to normal status following minimally invasive surgery. It also involves a reduced immune response compared with open surgery. Reduced tissue desiccation and foreign body contamination and also fewer intra-abdominal adhesion. It has gained wide clinical acceptance in surgical practice in comparison to open surgery.Laparoscopic technique in recent years has tremendously being used as a non invasive surgery to perform different operation in abdominal and thoracic cavities.
