Location: Minia, Egypt
Work: My extension program deals with issues related to physiological changes of commercial poultry, with an emphasis on broilers, laying hens, quail and ducks. Topics include heat stress, reproduction and immunity. Feed formulation technology, quality and nutritional value of ingredients, efficacy of feed additives and nutritional factors that affect enteric development, increase tolerate to hot climate, improve health and immunity are in my considerations.

Favourite Publications: My research interests complement my extension activities: applied physiological research of commercial poultry and utilization of agricultural co-products as feed ingredients for poultry. Most of my research is done in the following areas1) Environmental Physiology: Anti heat stress substances affect the performance and enteric metabolic changes. 2) Reproduction: Using several steroid hormones to elevate the production rate and improve the semen quality for low producing chicken strains, local strains and water fowl. 3) Immunity: Immunosuperession; Nutritional factors that affect metabolic activities, immune function, skeletal development, enteritis development, reduce mortality and growth characteristics.4) Endocrinology: Use of supplemental substances to improve feed utilization, hormonal functions improve health and humoral as well as cell mediated immunity.
