Sengendo, Ahmad K.
First of all, we thank Allah (SW) for enabling us to congregate here to celebrate 30 years of the existence of the Islamic University in Uganda (IUIU).
Dear Chief Guest, and all of you our distinguished guests, we welcome you to IUIU and thank you very much for coming to celebrate with us IUIU’s 30 years of service to humanity. Your presence is a great honour to IUIU. We pray to Allah to reward each one of you most appropriately.

Isiaka, Mohammed. Dikko
Medicinal plants are widely used in the treatment of various diseases (Tabuti et al., 2003); and
they have been used for thousands of years in the developing countries (Rajeswara et al., 2012).
This study focused on the Utilization and Conservation of Medicinal Plants in Namagumba and
Nkoma parishes of Namanyonyi Sub County in Mbale District Eastern Uganda. The information
was obtained by interviewing the local population (n=205) using open-and close-ended
questionnaires. A total of 75 medicinal plant species belonging to 65 genera in 37 families were
recorded. The medicinal plants recorded were used to treat 49 maladies of which cough, malaria,
worm infection and stomach ache were predominant. The leaf was the plant part most frequently
used. Drinking decoctions and infusions were the dominant modes of application. The majority of
medicinal plants in Namanyonyi Sub County were reported as not being threatened. They are
harvested from the homestead and the surrounding areas and are mainly managed by planting.
There is also need for continuous monitoring of the status of these plants as the populations
expands.

The transformation of an animal into pieces fit for human consumption is a very important operation. Rather
than argue about halal slaughter without stunning being inhumane or stunning being controversial from the
Islamic point of view, we discuss slaughter, stunning and animal welfare considering both Islamic and animal
welfare legislation requirements. With the world Muslim population close to two billion, the provision of halal
meat for theMuslim community is important both ethically and economically. However, fromthe animalwelfare
standard point of view, a number of issues have been raised about halal slaughterwithout stunning, particularly,
about stressful methods of restraint and the latency of the onset of unconsciousness. This paper sets out to, discuss
the methods of stunning that are acceptable by Islamic authorities, highlight the requirements for stunning
to be acceptable in Islam and suggest practical ways to improve the humanness of slaughter.

This experiment aimed to determine microbial spoilage and lipid and protein oxidation during aerobic refrigerated
(4 °C) storage of rabbit meat. Forty male New Zealand white rabbits were slaughtered according to the Halal
slaughter procedure. The hind limbs were used for microbial analysis while the Longissimus lumborum m. was
used for determination of lipid and protein oxidation. Bacterial counts generally increased with aging time and
the limit for fresh meat (108 cfu/g) was reached at d 7 postmortem. Significant differences in malondialdehyde
content were observed after 3 d of storage. The thiol concentration significantly decreased with increase in
aging time. The band intensities of myosin heavy chain and troponin T significantly reduced with increased refrigerated
storage while actin remained relatively stable. This study thus proposes protein oxidation as a potential
deteriorative change in refrigerated rabbit meat along with microbial spoilage and lipid oxidation.
