In the present study, the effect of Bay leave ethanolic extract on blood glucose, insulin level, lipid profile , liver and kidney function and body weight in type 2 diabetic rats were investigated. Forty albino male rats(250-300) grams were divided into four groups (10 rats for each), first group treated with distilled water and served as control, second group treated with 200 mg\\kg of Laura nobilis alcoholic extract, third group served as positive diabetic and the fourth group was served as diabetic and treated with 200 mg\\kg b. w of alcoholic extract of Laurus nobilis, all groups were treated orally, the following results were evaluated in diabetic rats, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ,alkaline phosphatase (ALP) , B. urea and s. creatinine levels were significantly increased while high density lipoprotein (HDL) and body weight significantly decreased as compared to control rats, after 30 days of treating by200 mg\\kg b.w alcoholic extract of Bay leave there was significant decrease in fasting blood glucose and significant increase in fasting insulin level, also there was significant decrease in TG, TC, LDL, VLDL, ALT, AST, ALP, B. urea and s. creatinine level, while HDL and body weight increased in diabetic groups compared to control not treated groups.

It is well known that sperm is a unique cell in that it has a function to be done by itself outside the body and this function is essential for species' continuity thus sperm by its power and intact structure has to reach the ova and perform the fertilization and this journey is affected by the chemical and physical factors that might increase or decrease its ability to move or fertilize or even to survive. The aim of this study is to find the effect of vibration that is a vigorous movement with high frequency for 20min on whole seminal fluid samples as an external physical factor. 40 fresh seminal fluid samples were selected. 1ml of each semen samples was placed in the bottom of conical tube; the tube was exposure to vibration waves by using a special shaker designed for this purpose for 20 min. This shaker consist of a M540 DC motor equipped with PWM controller to control the rotational speed from 5-2400 rpm. Semen analysis was done before and after subject vibration. A significant increase (P<0.05) was found in percentage of sperm active directed motility (grade A) with a non-significant increase in sluggish motility and a non-significant decrease in percentage of immotile sperms percentage. No significant changes were founded regarded sperm morphology and count. It was concluded that vibrating seminal sample for 20min increases the overall sperms activity with significant increase in percentage of highly active directed sperms.
