Current study was detected on native Awassi sheep which devided into two groups included healthy and infected animals to highlight on relationship between scabies disease and interleukin 12 (1L-12) Concentration also relation with serum proteins and leukocytes. The research demonstrated that infection influenced significantly (P<0.05) on globulin while total proteins albumin, globulin/albumin (glo/alb) not affected by incidence, there is no importance for scabies on neutrophils, lymphocyte, monocyte and basophils in serum which were 46.6%, 45%, 6.61% and 0.30% respectively and these rates reduced in healthy animals whereas eosinophils was 1.42% (P<0.01) for infested animals, correlation coefficient between scabies and each of 1L-12 was-0.176 (P<0.05) and highly significant reached to-0.350 with eosinophils but insignificant association found for lymphocyte, monocyte, basophils with infestation and these cells negatively linked with 1L-12 were 0.118, 0.225 and 0.121 also lower with eosinophils was 0.097, on contract side, positive relation with neutrophils become 0.188.
