Goiter occurs in both cases and the production of thyroid hormones increases despite the decline in the concentration of the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), while the production of thyroid hormones decreases in hypothyroidism despite the increase in the production of thyroid stimulating hormone. In view of the relationship between thyroid hormones and metabolism and the metabolic rate through the influence of these hormones on the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins and thus energy produced from the hydrolysis of these compounds This study was conducted to investigate the different effects on different physiological ,histological biochemical and molecular criteria in 58 patients with hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism for two age groups , they were collected from the Teaching Laboratories in Al - Hilla teaching hospital and from private laboratories (Babylon) , during the period from November 2015 to march 2016, the aim of this study was the detection of the best possible diagnostic parameter for the detection of the dysfunction of thyroid gland by using various biological markers in this study. The results of this study showed that a significant differences in thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), irisin, thyroxin (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), triglycerides (TG), body mass index (BMI), glucose, Interlukin - 2 Receptor (CD25), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), Potassium (K), Sodium (Na), high density lipoprotein (HDL), calcium (Ca) in hypothyroidism ,hyperthyroidism patients compared with the control group, while the differences were Non - signifecant in the thyroid Peroxidase ( TPO) in patients with hyperthyroidism in both sexes Fc - receptor - like - protein3 (FCRL3), thyroglobulin (Tg) in patients with hypothyroidism in both sexes and thyroid Stimulating Hormone Receptor (TSHR) in patients with hypothyroidism in both sexes only in younger old patients as compared to the control group. Histological study revealed that there were differences in the histological structure of the thyroid vesicles in patients with hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism compared with the control group. MAP Kinase gene was used for the detection of tumors of the thyroid gland by using immunohistochemistry technique, the result in tissue Papillary Carcinoma was identified in one of the samples obtained for this purpose. The results of the correlation between the different criteria for patients with hyperthyroidism, and hypothyroidism have shown a negative correlation between the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and body mass index (BMI) and interlukin - 2receptor (CD25) and triiodothyronine (T3),while there positive correlation was a between irisin and triiodothyronine (T3) and a positive relationship between both irisin and High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), as well as positive correlation between irisin and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH).

In order to develop a cancer from dysplasia to invasive carcinoma, a series of cellular changes should occur. As genital HPV carries oncogenes involving in these critical changes, currently HPV has been considered the most important risk factor of cervical cancer.This study was designed as case control study. In the retrospective part of these study a total number of (56) formalin - fixed, paraffin embedded cervical tissues was involved were submitted to ISH and IHC technique 27 with Cervical Carcinoma (CC) and 16 with benign cervical tumors. Thirteen (13) apparently healthy cervical tissues were used as a control group .The age of this individuals (patients and control groups) was ranged between 23 and 73 years. Samples collected from the pathological archives of different general hospital as well as many private laboratories. Specimens belong to the period from January 2009 to September 2015. After sectioning of these cervical biopsies and staining by hematoxyline and eosin, a final definitive histopathological diagnosis was done by a consultant histopathologist.In the cross - section part of this study seventy two female patients taken from different general hospitals. Cytological examinations were performed for their Pap - smeared and a final definitive cytopathological diagnosis was done by a consultant histopathologist. According to their main cytological finding cervical cellular scrapes were divided into three cytological groups : cervicitis with squamous intraepithelial lesions, cervicitis without squamous intraepithelial lesions and healthy group. The DNA isolated from a representative cytological specimen was investigated by real - tim PCR analysis for the detection and genotyping of high/risk HPV DNA.The obtained results are summarized as follows : - The age range distribution mostly in age group (23 - 73 years), the most affected age group in malignant and benign cervical tumor was (52 - 67) , (36 - 51) years which constituted 55.6%(15 out of 27 cases), 50% (8 out of 16 cases) with mean age (54 ± 11.22), (38.8 ± 9.85) respectively, while (20 - 35 years) is the most affected age group in control cases were constituting 53.8% (7 out of 13 cases) with mean age (35.5 ± 8.64 ) . - The most common histopathological type among all studied archived cervical tissues was squamous cell carcinoma (66.6%), followed by the adenocarcinoma (33.3%). - The well differentiated grade of CC constituted 52%, whereas those with moderately and poorly differentiated grades CC constituted 37%and 11% respectively. - The percentage of HrHPV31/33 DNA was detected as follows : in 55.6 % of tissues from cervical cancers, 43.7% in the tissues from benign cervical tumors, while, no HrHPV31/33 positive - ISH reaction was detected in healthy cervical tissues of the control group. - The percentage of LrHPV6/11 DNA was detected as follows : in 33.3 % of tissues from cervical cancers, 31.3% in the tissues from benign cervical tumors, while, the percentage of LrHPV6/11 show negative - ISH reaction in healthy control group of cervical tissues. - The highest positive result for ISH of HPV31/33 found in squamous cell carcinoma 72.2% and in adenocarcinoma was 22.2% while the percentage of HPV6/11detection according to cancer type was 50% found in squamous cell carcinoma while 0.0% in the type of adinocarcinoma. - The highest percentage of HPV31/33 detected in relation with tumor grade depending on the differentiated of cells was 70% (7 out of 10 cases) show in moderately differentiated, followed by 57.1% (8 out of 14 cases ) in well differentiated , and none of poorly differentiated showpositive signal . - The highest percentage of HPV6/11 detected in relation with tumor grade depending on the differentiated of cells was 42,9 % (6 out of 14 cases) show in well differentiated, followed by 30% (3 out of 10 cases ) in moderately differentiated , and none of poorly differentiated show positive signal . - The highest percentage of co - infection with High risk HPV31/33 and Low risk of HPV6/11 types was (22.2%) in malignant cervical tumor group.

Many of studies have shown the critical part of TLRs in different parasitic diseases. The present study were performed to detect TLRs 7 and TLRs 9 genes and related cytokines in 125 aborted women as case group and 30 healthy women (15 non pregnant and 15 pregnant women) as control groups in the Maternity and children Hospital in the Al - Qadisiyah province from December 2015 till March 2016, Five milliliter of venous blood sample were obtained from each woman under sterile condition. Three aspects were involved in this study; the first aspect included the measurement of sera antibodies (IgG& IgM) in the aborted women and control and study epidemiological aspects for T. gondii infection. The second aspect determined the levels of cytokines (IL - 12 Pg./ml , IFN - γ Pg./ml) and human proflin - 1 (PFN - 1 Pg./ml) in the sera of aborted women and control. The levels of cytokines (IL - 12 , IFN - γ) and PFN - 1 in blood were detected by using ELISA principle. The third aspect focused on detection of TLR7 gene and TLR9 gene in extraction DNA of aborted women and control (non pregnant and pregnant women) by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). The outcomes demonstrated the seroprevalence of IgG (latent infection) and IgM (recently acquired infection) anti - Toxoplasma antibodies were positive in 55/125 cases (44%) and 5/125 cases (4%) respectively, however the Overall Seroprevalence of anti - T.gondii antibodies in aborted women was 48%. Mixed seropositive for IgG and IgM were not recorded in the present study, whereas the control were 0% for all antibodies. Significant relationship (P< 0.05) was found between the seroprevalence of T.gondii as ( chronic infection , age groups of the aborted women, several chronic diseases and abortion time). The results showed no statistically significant association between Toxoplasma infection and the ability of women to have children and frequency of abortions. The results confirmed that the aborted women with positive IgG antibody have significant increase in IL - 12 concentration in comparison with control , while no significant increase in IgM in comparison with control groups at LSD value ( 30.28). The concentrations of IFN - γ were lower in positive IgM aborted women than IgG , both groups of aborted women have significant decreased in comparison with pregnant control. While IgM patients have significant decreased in comparison with pregnant and healthy control group at LSD value (19.33). The human profilin - 1 levels were lowered in infected aborted women with IgG and IgM antibodies in comparison with pregnant and healthy control at LSD value ( 230.14). The genetic profils of genes TLRs have explained that TLR7 and TLR9 were (89.1 %) , (84.7 %), Respectively in aborted women. The results illustrated the presence of some genetic variation (TLR7 and TLR9 gene) in aborted women compared with the control, and this means having mutations in the patients gene.

Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the phytochemical components and antifungal activity of Cressa cretica L. using Gas chromatography - Mass spectrum (GC - MS) and Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR) techniques in addition to the characterization ( morphological and molecular) of fungal ear infection (otomycosis) and evaluate the antifungal activity (in vitro) of the C. cretica bioactive extracts. The secondary metabolites analysis of C.cretica extracts revealed the presence of phenols, alkaloids, terpenes, flavonoids, glycosides and tannins. The results of GC - MS reported 112 chemical compounds (30 in flowers, 34 in leaves, 23 in stems and 25 in roots). The results of the FTIR confirmed the presence of large numbers of functional groups in each part of the plant and these functional groups which varied according to the solvent type. More of these functional groups were alcohols, phenols, alkanes, alkyl halides, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, aromatics, nitro compounds and amines. The results were designed according to factorial experiments with complete randominal designed. Clinical diagnosis of otomycosis fungi revealed that there are 126 positive casesout of 185 cases included the filamentous fungi Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, A. terreuss, Penicilleum digitatium, either yeasts have included Candida parapsilosis, C. albicans, C. glabrata , C. Krusie. The percentage of Candida was 53.63% while the percentage of filamentous fungi was 46.36%, males was more infected than females, the age group 11 - 20 years old appear more affected than other age groups (19.8%), while the age group 31 - 40 years old and those who are older than 61 years were the least affected. Antifungal activity of C. cretica extracts revealed that each species of Candida had been affected by a part more than others, as well as a certain type of solvents, as follow : C. Parapsilosis largely affected by flowers extract when solvent hexane was used (the diameter of inhibition zone was 10.33 mm) at the concentration of 50%, while the C. albicans was most affected by whole plant when used ethyl acetate solvent (the diameter of inhibition zone was 10.92 mm). Stems extract by using hexane solvent was the most inhibitory growth effect on C. glabrata (the diameter of inhibition zone was 10.8 mm), while the roots extract by using methanol solvent showed largest inhibition on C. krusie growth (the diameter of inhibition zone was 8.56 mm). Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) reached to 25% on C. glabrata and C. krusie when using hexane stems extract and methanol roots extract respectively, while C. parapsilosis and C. albicans had reached the minimum inhibitory concentration to 30% when using hexane flowers extract and ethyl acetate whole plant extract.The results revealed that the alkaloids extract are the most effect against all species of Candida under study, the inhibition zone for C. parapsilosis was 4 mm diameters and 3.6 mm for C. albicans , 3.2 mm for C.glabrata and 5.2mm for C. krusie, followed by phenols extracts and terpens with the exception of C. albicans since terpenes extract had been more affected than phenols extracted, and this effect was increased with increasing the concentration of extract. When the C. cretica compared with the antifungal (Fluconazole) the results showed that the effect of extracts had greater inhibitory effect against otomycosis fungi, where the greatest impact of fluconazole was 8.23 mm at concentration 50% in the treatment of C. glabrata, and had the little inhibitory effect on the growth of C. krusie where the diameter of inhibition zone was 0.53 mm at the concentration 50%, and that the inhibitory effect increases with increasing concentration, while roots alkaloids gave inhibitory effect reached to 5.2 mm on C. krusie .

Abstract: The present study was carried out in AL - Hilla River near Al mahaweel district in the middle of Iraq during autumn 2016 to summer 2017. The study included a collection of high density from microzooplankton by use special device then identified and used it as live food for early feeding common carp larva (Cyprinus carpio). The environmental factors of Hilla river tested for four seasons and ranged between 6 - 44 ˚C of air temperature, 9.5 - 30 ˚C of water temperature, 7.03 - 8.58 of pH, 921 - 1090 µm/cm of conductivity, 654.33 - 772.00 mg/l of total dissolved solids and 550.00 - 636.33 of salinity, 5.43 - 13.03 mg/l of total suspended solids, 7.5 - 10.31 mg/L of dissolved oxygen, 1.96 - 6.30 mg/l of BOD5, 1.61 - 2.49 m/s of water velocity, 5.17 - 16.80 µg/L of chloropyll - a - . The taxonomic and ecological study is done to the microzooplankton specially rotifer. There are few studies of rotifer in Hilla river, The result showed that the density of rotifera was ranged between 23ind. /L in the summer season to 65.66 ind. /L in winter season, included 65 rotifer taxa (62 species +2genera +1 class) were recorded in this study, 10 taxa (9 species + 1 genus) were recorded for the first time in Iraq and 14 taxa (13 species + 1 genus) were recorded for first time in Hilla River compared with available local studies. Keratella tropica showed the highest density of the rotifera, Lecane genus showed the highest species number (10 species). Canonical correspondence analysis showed Physico - chemical parameters of water affected on the density of rotifer both positively and negatively. There was positive significant correlation between density rotifer with electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, and salinity, while pH showed the lowest effect on the density of rotifer than other environmental factors. Different species of rotifer showed some variations of the correlation with environmental factor, such as the density of Bdelloidea class correlated positive significant correlation with water temperature, while Keratella cochlearis species negative significant correlation with water temperature. Special system (multi - filtration system) designed and made by researchers in our study for collection high density of microzooplankton with size sample range between 50 - less 200 µm, with short time, less effort and low cost. The multi - filtration system that consists of three stages : pumping stage, multi - filtration stage and sample collection stage. The density of the samples was measured seasonally by comparing the density of the microzooplankton in Hilla river and the density of the microzooplankton sample obtained by the multi - filtration system. The highest density of multi - filtration system rotifer was 1023033 ind./L and the highest density of multi - filtration system total microzooplankton was 1052000 ind/L and measured chlorophyll - a - of sample multi - filtration system that ranged between 23.54 - 1931.09 µg/L. The density of rotifer and total microzooplankton that collect by the multi - filtration system were concentration up to 20222.22, 17558.81 times than what is in the river. After collection of the high density of microzooplankton by using the multi - filtration system, this microzooplankton was used as live food for early feeding fish larvae. A special experiment was designed to feed common carp of fish larvae (Cyprinus carpio) using three types of food : first live diet collected by the multi - filtration system that microplankton most rotifer, second soybean meal and third mixed food (rotifer and soybean meal). Some growth indicators for fish larvae were studied; the results showed that the highest growth rate and best survival rate were larvae fed on live food, highest increased weight and increased length, relative growth rate, specific growth rate and lowest survival rate (33.53 mg, 3.33mm, 87.78, 30.11, and32.38 % respectively) for larvae fish feeding on rotifera, while lowest increased weight and increased length, relative growth rate, specific growth rate and lowest survival rate (27.00mg, 1.43mm, 85.23, 27.39, and 61.90 % respectively) for fish larvae feeding on soybean meal.

Abstract: During the period between April 2016 and January 2017, a total of 1100 clinical specimens (burns, wounds, throat, urine, blood) were collected from two hospitals in Babylon province Al - Hillah Teaching Hospital and Medical City of Mirjan Hospital. All specimens were cultured and 17 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were obtained from clinical specimens in a percentage of (1.5%) distributed in burn 11 (2.8%), wound 1 (0.6%), throat 1 (2%), urine 3 (0.7%) and blood 1 (0.9%).This study was conducted to determine the presence of carbapenem resistance Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) isolates and the prevalence of β - lactamase genes responsible for carbapenem - resistance among clinical isolates of A. baumannii collected from two hospitals in Hillah City. Isolates were identified according to VITEK2 system. Antibiotics susceptibility was assayed by using disks diffusion method according to CLSI recommendations and it’s found 8 isolates was carbapenem resistant.The eight CRAB isolates were tested for biofilm formation by using the tube adherence test and the results showed that 5 of 8 tested isolates (62.5%) were strong for biofilm formation. Two genes related to biofilm formation was investigated (bap & blaPER - 1 genes). Six isolates were positive for the bap gene (75 %) and no isolates had positive for blaPER - 1 gene. The eight CRAB isolates were tested also for the presence of two virulence factor genes include espA (K1 capsular polysaccharide) and ompA (outer membrane protein A), this detection was performed by the conventional PCR technique. The positive result for espA and ompA genes was (62.5%) and (75%) respectively.IIPhenotypic detection of carbapenemase production was performed using the imipenem - EDTA disk and modified Hodge's test (MHT). Then isolates were subjected to monoplex PCR targeting blaCTX, blaTEM, BlaSHV, blaIMP, blaVIM, blaSPM, NDM - 1, NDM - 2, AmpC, OXA - 23, OXA - 24, OXA - 48, OXA - 51, OXA - 58 and OXA - 235 genes, all CRAB isolate gave positive result with MHT and (50%) of these isolates were positive to the imipenem - EDTA disk. PCR experiments showed ; all CRAB isolates were harbored blaOXA - 51 gene, six (75%) isolates were harbored blaCTX gene, four (100%) isolates were harbored blaTEM gene, four (50%) isolates were harbored blaVIM gene, four (50%) isolates were harbored blaSPM gene, seven (87.5%) isolates were harbored NDM - 2 gene, seven (87.5%) isolates were harbored ampC gene, six (75%) isolates were harbored OXA - 23 gene, one (12.5%) isolates were harbored OXA - 24 gene, two (25%) isolates were harbored OXA - 48 gene and one (12.5%) isolates were harbored OXA - 235 gene, while none of these isolates harbored BlaSHV, blaIMP, NDM - 1, NDM - 2 genes. All isolates of A. baumannii appear as MDR, while two isolates appear to be as XDR.These results revealed that CRAB isolates constitute 47% of all A. baumannii that had been isolated from Al - Hillah Teaching Hospital and Medical City of Mirjan Hospital in Babylon province and some of carbapenemase were detected in both phenotypic and genotypic methods (PCR). This underlies the importance of their accurate identifications and reporting to prevent the emergence of complete resistance to the most potent drugs against A. baumannii in Babylon province.

From these samples 26 and 36 actinomycetes isolates were obtained from desert and agricultural regions respectively . All actinomycetes isolates were tested for their antibacterial activity using primary screening against pathogenic bacteria by perpendicular streaking method .The results were showed that all the actinomycetes isolates were isolated from agricultural regions hadn't any antibacterial activity while the 26 isolates isolated from desert regions were had antibacterial activity in different spectra . Eight actinomycetes isolates from all the 26 desert regions isolates were selected for secondary screening due to their antibacterial activities with wide spectrum against pathogenic bacteria namely Gram positive (Staphylococ¬cus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae) and Gram negative (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeru¬ginosa) by the agar diffusion methods and the results revealed the selection of actinomycetes LHR 9 isolate for farther studies because it gave us the highest inhibition against the tested pathogenic bacteria growth. The active actinomycetes LHR 9 isolate was identified using several morphological and biochemical methods. The morphological characterization was involved the study of aerial and substrate mycelium on many International Streptomyces Project agar medium and using light microscopy at 1000X and 400X to study the mycelium morphology, as well as using the scanning electron microscope (SEM) to examine the spore surface. The results exhibited that the isolate had the aerial mycelium which formed unfragmented, branched, looped and rectus - flexibilis hyphae type bearing non - motile spores with smooth surface. In addition to results of biochemical tests we could revealed that the isolate was belong to Streptomyces genus . The active isolate Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 was selected for optimization critical cultural and nutritional parameters for increasing the antibiotic production titer in fermentation medium (Soybean broth medium), the results showed the dextrose as carbon source , peptone as nitrogenous source and K2HPO4 as a phosphate source with fermentation cultural condition included ; temperature of 35 °C, pH 7 with agitation rate 200 rpm for 7 days as incubation period gave high values in active secondary metabolites production. The antibacterial compound from fermentation medium was extracted using liquid - liquid extraction method with various organic solvents n - propanol, chloroform, ethyl acetate, acetone, methanol and ethanol) 1 : 1 (v/v) . the results was revealed the ethyl acetate the most efficient in extraction . The Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 crude extract was purified by using silica gel column (1.6 X 14) chromatography. Chloroform and methanol (4 : 1) (v/v), was used as an eluting solvent. The active fractions ( had the antibacterial activity ) were selected for determination the minimum inhibitory concentration and evaluation the cytotoxic activity using MTT (3 - (4, 5 - dimethylthiazol - 2 - yl) - 2 - 5 - diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay. The results of the MIC of partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract were 4.5 µg/ml for Escherichia coli, 5 µg/ml for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 2.5µg/ml for Staphylococcus aurues and 3µg/ml for Streptococcus agalactiae . In vitro screening for cytotoxic activity was done by MTT assay for evaluation the anticancer activity of the partially purified antibacterial compounds produced by Streptomyces sp. LHR 9. The cytotoxic activity of the partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract was determined against established MCF - 7 cell line ( breast cancer cell lines ) and WRL cell as a representative of normal breast cell line, depending on their viability ratio. The viability of MCF - 7 cell line was decreased dramatically with the increasing in extract concentration in the same time the viability of WRL cell was decreased in slowly manner. The using of multiple purification methods Liquid Chromatography - Mass Spectroscopy (LC - MS) along with a sensitive measuring method and possibly isolation of these compounds should allow us to evaluate the entire potential of secondary metabolites production, the results from LC - MS chromatogram of the partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract showed five peaks, on comparison of the mass spectra of the constituents with the National Institute of Standards and Technology( NIST) library the compound was had the Formula : C18H34O2 and molecular weight : 282 D. The partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract was evaluated for its in vivo antioxidant and antitumor activity depending on the ability of 7,12 dimethyl Benz (A)anthracene (DMBA) to inducing breast tumor in female rat model, the results revealed the partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract had the ability to keeping the enzymatic antioxidant in approximately its natural concentrations (as the same concentrations in serum of negative group) in serum of tested rats which were induced breast cancer by DMBA and treated with partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract, so these results were more studied on histological plane and the results of that were achieved by decreasing in weight and size of the breast tumor of tested rats and other histological change in breast tissue. In addition to that partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract effect was more studied on molecular plane depending on the Bcl - 2 and Caspase - 3 genes mutation using Polymerase Chain Reaction - Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism ( PCR - SSCP) analysis. The results were two conformations polymorphism in both Caspase - 3 gene ( about 83.66 % of negative group and 50% of treated group had three bands (wild type) where's positive control had 66.66% four bands (mutant type)) and Bcl2 gene (the wild type had one band such as negative group was 78.66% and test group 60%, compared with positive group (60.67%) have two bands(mutant type)). so these results suggest the active apoptotic property of Caspase - 3 and Bcl - 2 and the role of partially purified Streptomyces sp. LHR 9 extract effect in keeping them in their wild type.

presented in the seminal plasma, the enzymes such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate amino - transaminase (AST), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) are proved to be important for various metabolic processes which provide energy for livability, motility, and fertility of spermatozoa. This study aimed to compare the activity levels of Alkaline phosphates, Aspartate - aminotranferase and Lactate dehydrogenase enzyme in the seminal plasma of infertility patients include : normozoospermia, asthenozoospermia, terato - asthenozoospermia, oligozoospermia, oligo - asthenozoospermia, azoospermia and fertile men, in addition to study of inter relationships between these enzymes and with sperm parameters include : sperm concentration, motility )grade A+B(, and morphologically abnormal sperm. This study was conducted in the laboratory of Babylon Maternity and children teaching hospital and private laboratories during the period from October 2016 to March 2017. The study included 122 samples from different types of infertility and 10 samples from fertile men The results showed that there was a significant difference (p˂0.05) between the different groups of alkaline phosphatase enzyme. The fertile men have the highest level, followed by normozoospermia. No significant differences were observed between the oligozoospermia, oligo - asthenozoospermia and azoospermia which have the lowest level of activity and no highly significant differences between asthenozoospermia and terato - asthenozoospermia. A significant increase (P˂0.05) in the level of aspartate - aminotransferase enzyme between the different groups, the highest level of activity was observed in the group of fertile and normozoospermia. While no significant differences (P˃0.05) between the groups of azoospermia and terato - asthenozoospermia, the results also showed no significant differences (P˃0.05) between the groups of asthenozoospermia, oligozoospermia and oligo - asthenozoospermia which owns the lowest level of activity. The results revealed significant increase (P˂0.05) in an average of the activity level of Lactate dehydrogenase enzyme between the different groups, the highest level was shown in the groups of fertile and normozoospermia and the lowest level in the azoospermia, oligozoospermia and oligo - asthenozoospermia but asthenozoospermia and terato - asthenozoospermia have the same level of activity. The results showed a significant negative correlation (P˂0.01) between AST activity and sperm motility (grade A+B) in the normozoospermic patients, and significant positive correlation (P˂0.01) in the group of asthenozoospermia, also the results revealed significant positive correlation (P˂0.05) in the normozoospermic men between AST activity and sperm concentration. The morphological abnormal sperm has significant negative correlation (P˂0.05) with AST activity in the group of normozoospermia, and it was revealed a significant negative correlation (P˂0. 05) between LDH activity and sperm concentration in the seminal plasma of oligo - asthenozoospermia. Also the results showed a significant negative correlation (P˂0.05) between the activities of ALP and AST in the azoospermia, and significant positive correlation (P˂0.05) in the seminal plasma of asthenozoospermia between AST and LDH activity. It was concluded the importance of ALP, AST and LDH levels in detecting the ability of gland secretion and normal semen components

This case - control study was done in a period of March 2016 to October 2016 ,where the samples collected from Al - Sadr Teaching Hospital in Najaf Province. The number of samples was (80) females with type 2 diabetes with an average age (36 - 65 year), all of them were with type 2 diabetes are divided to pre menopause and post menopause, also divided according to duration of disease and according to age groups, family history, body mass index and complications with disease (hypertensive blood pressure). Also, the study included 40 apparently healthy people with an average age ( 36 - 65 year) , as control matched with disease group. The present study divided into two main parts : physiological and molecular parts . The results showed that patients with type 2 diabetes , had significantly( p ≤ 0.05 ) higher cholesterol, Triglyceride, Low density lipoprotein, very low density lipoprotein, Hemoglobin A1c, insulin, insulin resistance and Fasting blood glucose levels rate than control group, while the levels rate of insulin sensitivity is decreased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) in type 2 diabetic patients when compared with control group . The Estradiol levels rate was significantly (p ≤ 0.05) higher in premenopausal females while it decreased in postmenopausal females of both control and type 2 diabetic patients. Systolic and diastolic pressure showed significant difference between patients with type 2 diabetic and control. According to the comparison of premenopausal and postmenopausal women in both diabetic patients and in control group, the results showed significant ( p ≤ 0.05) elevation in Estradiol hormone level rates, Insulin hormone level rates and insulin resistance in both groups. On the other , the comparison of premenopausal patients with diabetic and premenopausal control groups the statistical analysis showed significant elevation (p ≤ 0.05) in cholesterol levels rate, Low density lipoprotein (LDL), HemoglobinA1c levels rate (HBA1c), fasting blood glucose (FBG), Estradiol hormone level rates, Insulin hormone level rates, insulin resistance ,insulin sensitivity and diastolic blood pressure. The results of correlation analysis in pre menopausal diabetic patients showed there are significant negative correlation between vitamin D with both Triglyceride (TGC) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) while significant positive correlation has been found between vitamin D and high density lipoprotein (HDL) in post menopausal diabetic patients. In post menopausal control group a significant negative correlation has been found between vitamin D and fasting blood glucose (FBG) level.In pre menopausal diabetic patients, the results of correlation analysis showed there were significant positive correlation between calcium and BMI, while significant negative correlation has been found between calcium and both high density lipoprotein (HDL) and age in addition to significant positive correlation with Estradiol in post menopausal diabetic patients.On the other hand, In pre menopausal control group, a significant negative correlation has been found between calcium and systolic blood pressure, while a significant positive correlation with insulin hormone and insulin resistance. While, in post menopausal control group a significant negative correlation has been found between calcium and fasting blood glucose (FBG) level and body mass index. In both premenopausal and postmenopausal diabetic patients and control group there were highly significant negative correlation between Insulin and insulin sensitivity, while highly significant positive correlation with insulin resistance. In pre menopausal diabetic patients, there were significant positive correlation between insulin and Triglyceride (TGC), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and BMI. In post menopausal diabetic patients, there were significant negative correlation between insulin and HBA1c.On the other hand, in premenopausal and postmenopausal diabetic patients groups there were highly significant positive correlation between hemoglobinA1c (HBA1c) and fasting blood glucose (FBG), and significant positive correlation with TGC and VLDL in premenopausal group only. The genetic analysis of the Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms , for vitamin D receptor gene by using RFLP - PCR technique showed that there non - significant difference in the genotype polymorphisms of (APA - I, FOk - I and Taq - I) and (Estrogen receptor - alpha gene) between patients and control by using the same technique above, While there were significant differences according to (Cdx - II gene) by using (ASM - PCR) technique.

The current study aims to evaluate the association of (Interleukin 10, Tumor Necrosis Factor - α and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) genes polymorphism in psoriasis. Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNPs) determined by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR - RFLP) and DNA sequencing techniques, while there serum levels determined by ELISA. This case - control study is done in a period of March 2015 to December 2017, where the samples collected from Marjan Medical City in Babylon Province. The number of samples was (64) patients psoriasis (40 males and 24 females ) with an average age ( 9 - 70 year), (50) of them were with type 1 psoriasis and (14) type 2. In addition, the study included 38 apparently healthy people who were (21 males and 17 females) with an average age (15 - 65 year), as control matched with disease group. The present study revealed a significant increasing (P<0.01) of Tumor Necrosis Factor - α (TNF - α) and Interleukin 10 (IL10) in patients compare with controls. In addition, there is a significantly regression between severity of disease and TNF - α serum level (r =0.49, p=0.0001) and non - significant invers regression with IL10 serum level (r= 0.29, P=0.0109). In addition, the results established an A significant negative correlation which has been found between IL10 and TNF - α (r= - 0.29) (p=0.0028). Physiological, the study shows significant increasing in Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) level in patient compare with control (P<0.01). There is no correlation between Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) serum level and severity or onest of disease (r= - 0.05).Genetically, analysis of the Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms PCR - RFLP genotyping for TNF - α - 308 G/A (rs1800629) SNP, Genotype distribution in patient were GG 35 (54.69%), AG 24 (37.50%) and AA 5 (7.81%) while in control were AG16 (42.11%), GG 12 (31.58%) and AA10 (26.31%).The genetic analysis of the Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms of VEGF +405 SNP, genotype distribution CC homozygous was predominant in patient 39(60.94%) and GG homozygous was 24 (37.05) While the GCwas the least 1 (1.56%). Comparing with the control group was CG 18(47.37%), CC 13(34.21%) and GG 7(18.42%).On the other hand , the statistical analysis for the role of genotyping for TNF - α - 308 SNP in the Serum levels of TNF - α were different between TNF - 308 AA (126.90 ± 14.96) patients and TNF - α GA(106.55 ± 16.42) and GG (57.94 ± 7.72) genotypes (p < 0.01). Analysis for the role of genotyping for VEGF +405 SNP non - significant difference between homozygous CC (408.30 ± 0.00), homozygous was GG (326.00 ± 34.81) and heterozygous CG (376.41 ± 58.63).This result promotes that the both of TNF - α - 308 SNP polymorphism and VEGF +405 SNP strongly implicated in the pathogenicity, severity and onest of psoriasis.PCR - sequencing for IL10 - 1082 A/G (rs1800896) locus shows a significant difference of percentage distributions of alleles and genotypes for IL10 - 1082 (rs1800896) locus between patient and control, GG homozygous was predominant in patient (71.5%) while the AG heterozygous was (28.5 %). Comparing with control group GG (100%).

Abstract: The present study aimed to search for safe and effective antifungal agents through investigation of the phytochemical characterization and bioactive properties of medicinal plants (Pimpinella anisum essential oil and Moringa oleifera and Malva sylvestris leaf extracts) and their effect on gene expression of keratinases produced by T. rubrum using Real Time PCR.Phytochemical analysis of active materials of P. anisum essential oil and M. oleifera leaf extracts were carried out, through TLC accompanied autobiography, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and GC - MS analyses were proceeded to relate the chemical profile with their antifungal activity. Also, the cytotoxic effects of active compound and crude extract for both plant extracts were determined using MTT (3 - (4,5 - dimethylthiazol - 2 - yl) - 2,5 - diphenyltetrazolium bromide dye) assay. Screening the antifungal activity of Pimpinella anisum essential oil, Moringa oleifera leaf extracts and four traditional antifungal agents against growth and development of two strains of T. rubrum differed in their virulence were conducted. MIC for crud extracts and antifungal agent were also determined using microdilution plate, moreover, the effects of crud extracts and active compounds on gene expression was evaluated.Qualitative TLC, HPLC analysis for the anise essential oil extract revealed the presence of anethole which was identified as a main volatile compound in this extract which was identified as anethole. GC - MS analysis also revealed that trans - anethole is the major compound (96.8%), then Himachalene (1.84%), other components were also present but less than 1% e.g. Estragole, cyclohexene and 2 - Methoxy - 5 - (1 - propenyl) phenol. On the other hand, LC - MS analysis were showed the existence of that keratinase inhibitor (extracted from Moringa oleifera leaf)IICryptochlorogenicacid (C16H18O9), Astragalin (C21H20O11), so the presences of these compounds reflected the inhibitory effects on keratinase enzyme.The results upon screening, revealed that the anise oil inhibited both strains of T. rubrum, since the growth inhibition for first strain were 21, 30 and 39 mm at 15.6, 31.2 and 62.5 μl/ml respectively, while in second strain were 24, 32 and 39 mm at 15.6, 31.2 and 62.5 μl/ml respectively. The tested strains of this fungus revealed substantial sensitivity pattern toward crude extract of essential oil and anethole as well. Results showed that there was considerable growth inhibition for both strains of T. rubrum at minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) between 15.6 μg/mL for crude oil and 7.5 μg/mL for anethole. The inhibition in radial growth due to the effect of anise essential oil increased from 56% at 3rd day to 86% at the 7th day. Sporulation was substantially decreased by anise oil treatment. Anise oil was significantly inhibited conidial germination for both strains. Treatment with anise oil induced morphological changes in the conidial group where the conidia were absent in treated sample. Protease inhibitor isolated from mature leaves of M. oleifera showed great ability to inhibit keratinase activity of T. rubrum.MTT assay revealed that anethole is safe as phototherapeutic agents, when it is having no effects on normal cell, but shown anticancer activity against cancer cell.Anise oil, anethole, M. oleifera crud inhibitor, Cryptochlorogenic acid and Astragalin showed high inhibitory effects on gene expression of keratinase enzyme in both strains of T. rubrum KP979791 and KP979787.

Abstract: Cryptic bacterial infection has been studied in urinary system to Human, where 50 underwent urine samples from patient mostly based consulting auditors Hilla public Education Hospital for the period from November 2012 until Feb. 2013. Patients ranged in age from 20 - 50 years males and females bacterial infection rate was 70% distributed between the cell wall defective bacteria had 38% and 32% cell - wall bacteria and the results showed 30% as negative cases. Amicroscopic examination of the urine sludge Showed clear sovereignty of non - specialized immune response type of mixed cell 34% followed by mononuclear cell 30%. Samples were cultured on routine media (Blood agar , Macchonky agar) and Modified media (Variant agar, Variant broth). Out put diagnosed by bacterial system diagnostics, phen - otypic, microscopically and biochemistry by using the special test for microorganism diagnosis and using API 20 E and the use VITEK 2 to confirm some samples results. Characterized by colonies of cell wall defective bacteria grow on variant agar it resembles fried egg which could seen after staining Deinse stain. Citrobacter freundii recorded 12%, the highest rate among cellwall defective isolates. Sensitivity test for bacterial isolates were screened from U.T.I both two type (CWB & CWDB) showed the highest rate of sensitive to Impinem 100% represented CWDB, as well as the highest rate of resistance to Ampicillin 100% represented by the same group of isolates. experimental study with urinary tract infection by injecting bacterial stuck of Citrobacter freundii to the three groups of rabbits : first group ( 3 Rabbits ) : immunized with viable surface antigen extracted from CWDB, second group : ( 3 Rabbits ) immunized with heat killed surface antigen extracted from CWB, the third group (4 Rabbits) represented control group it been treated with sterile normal saline. the injection process through urethra, and then underwent a histological study, was histological damage to the members of the animal - derived non - immunized (control group) seemed clear was the appearance of symptoms of the total cellular infiltration and disruption of the mucous layer and epithelial and other symptoms. The immunized animals have shown their ability to defy injury. It is the study of serological reactions to bacterial antigens Citrobacter freundii immunized with vaccines for rabbits given high caliber agglutination with its specialized vaccines and low with adversity and that the absorption and the corresponding and variant antigen does not remove the agglutination effectiveness with immune sera prepared suggesting that the absorption is incomplete and that the difference between the wall and a wall defective in terms of antigenic is quantitative and qualitative.

Abstract: للفترة من اذار 2014 الى اذار 2015 تم جمع 1300 عينة سريرية مختلفة (عينات ادرار ومسحات جروح وحروق وعينات دم ومسحات من الفم والاذن والعيون بالاضافة لعينات البراز والقشع) من اثنين من مستشفيات محافظة بابل (مستشفى الحلة التعليمي ومستشفى بابل التعليمي للنسائية و| During the period between March 2014 and March 2015, a total of 1300 clinical specimens (urine, wounds, burns, blood, throat, ear, eye, stool, and sputum) were collected from two hospitals in Babylon province; Al - Hillah Teaching Hospital, and Babylon Hospital for Maternity and Pediatric. All specimens were cultured and 10 Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were obtained from clinical specimens in a percentage of (0.76%) distributed in blood 1 (0.6%), urine 2 (1%), wound infection 1 (0.75%), burn 5 (0.85%) and throat 1 (2%). This study was conducted to determine the occurrence of carbapenem resistant A. baumannii isolates obtained from Hillah hospitals. Isolates were identified according to API20E system and further confirmed using PCR technique. Antibiotics susceptibility was assayed by using disks diffusion method according to CLSI recommendations. All isolates revealed positive results with rapid iodometric test indicting the ability of beta lactamase production. Phenotypic detection of carbapenemase production was performed using the imipenem - EDTA disk and modified Hodeg's test (MHT). Then isolates were subjected to monoplex PCR targeting blaOXA - 51, blaOXA - 23, blaOXA - 24, blaOXA - 58, blaIMP, blaSIM blaNDM - 1, blaNDM - 2 and blaVIM genes, as well as, efflux pumps genes. One of the identified isolates (10%) was found to be imipenem, meropenem and ertapenem resistant, this isolate gave positive result with the imipenem - EDTA disk and (60%) of isolates were positive to MHT. PCR experiments showed ; all isolates were harbored blaOXA - 51 gene, four (40%) isolates were harbored blaOXA - 23 gene, three (30%) isolates were harbored blaOXA - 24 gene, four (40%) isolates were harbored blaOXA - 58 gene, five (50%) isolates were harbored blaIMP gene, six (60%) isolates were harbored blaSIM gene, two (20%) isolates were harbored blaNDM - 1 gene, four (40%) isolates were harbored blaNDM - 2 gene, while none of these isolates harbored blaVIM gene. The present findings suggest that emergence of (OXA - 23, OXA - 24, OXA - 58, IMP, SIM, NDM - 1, NDM - 2) carbapenemase producing A. baumannii clinical isolates in Hillah City hospitals. Also there are indicative appearance of efflux pump genes ; (50%) for Ade - A and Ade - B each other, (40%) for Ade - C, (80%) for all of Ade - R and Ade - S, (100%) for all of Ade - I and Ade - J, and (50%) for Ade - Y. All isolates of A. baumannii appear as MDR, while only one appear to be as PDR. The trans - mobility of resistant genes was examined by trans - conjugation experiment ; the results indicated that only blaIMP and blaOXA - 23 genes were transferred horizontally in the current study. In attempting to investigate any blaNDM gene variation the results showed some different than NCBI - Blast A. baumannii blaNDM - 1 and blaNDM - 2 it may as a unique genotyping.These results revealed that carbapenemase producing A. baumannii were detected in both phenotypic and genotypic methods (PCR). This underlies the importance of their accurate identifications and reporting to prevent the emergence of complete resistance to the most potent drugs against A. baumannii in Babylon province.

Abstract: The study consists of three parts related with patients of CRC as in : 1 - Molecular part 2 - Cytogenetic and molecular genetics part and 3 - Immunological part. In addition of their relatives of clinical and pathological diagnosis, genus, and tumor locations in 150 of Iraqi patients confirmed with CRC collected from Teaching Hospitals of some Iraqi governorates. The percent of male to female (54.66% / 45.43%) and the aged range of study were 16 to 80 years.The first part consist a study of five types of genes related with CRC represented by MLH1, MSH2, APC, K ras, and SMAD7 genes. Some of these genes develop with germline mutations as in MLH 1 exons1 and 15 so as MSH2 genes. While the rest genes related with a sporadic of CRC. All these genes were amplified by conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for study the types of the mutations and their defect of these genes on CRC. The APC exon11and K ras exon1 genes were processed by single strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) technique. The results of PCR - SSCP technique for two genes represented by appeared three types of bands, which were (AA), (AB) and (AC) bands. The important band was (AB) which constitutes the variability region represented by 84.2% and 44.82% in patients for both genes. The results of patients with mutated bands with high significant differences(P?0.05).compared with healthy control. Patients carried these bands subjected to PCR - Sequences technique. The analysis results for APC gene sequences were substitutions mutations type of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) change Cytocine to Thiamin (C>T) at 1972 location of genome. While the analysis results of Kras gene appeared two types of mutations, substitution and frame shifts represented by deletion mutation and so as appeared stop codon mutation.The other genes represented by MLH1, MSH2, and SMAD detected by direct PCR - Sequences. The results analysis of MLH1 gene, exon (1and 15) represented by nucleotides change with high frequencies of substitution mutation through exon1 at different locations of nucleotides. So as frame shift mutation type deletion through exon15. While for MSH2 gene, exon 6 from 6.66% represent by deletion mutation. A spread study for SMAD7 gene, exon4 were done through 30 patients average age 52 years (male to female 56.7% : 53.3%) confirmed colorectal adenocarcinoma compared with 15 healthy. A mutation of 20% of (SNPs) were identified.The second part which represented standard conventional cytogenetic and molecular genetics were done through peripheral blood culture (PBC). The study showed increasing of mitotic index (MI) in patients with significant differences (P?0.05) compared with healthy controls indicating for increasing of proliferation of the lymphocytes division. The study showed some chromosomal aberrations with significant, the majority of aberrations were higher significant in dwarf and aneuploidy chromosomes so as elongation chromosomes revealed significant differences (P?0.05) between patients and healthy. The appeared of Polyploidy chromosomes, with significant differences (P?0.05), that’s seem to be good indicator for cancer disease. The molecular genetics alterations which dependent on cytogenetic investigation were done through deletion of long arm of 5 chromosome which APC gene is located. The test elucidates the importance of inactivation (deletion) of APC gene in elicited of colorectal cancer. The study of 20 patients, were investigated by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). The results showed 60% patients which have 5q arm deletion of (+). And (5%) have two deletions (++) which was a male aged less than 60 years. The results analysis explained significant differences (p?0.01) between studied group and deletion (+) of arm 5q. A correlation represented by significant differences (p?0.01)through dysfunction of APC gene deletion of 5q were found with high percent among sporadic adenocarcinoma 58.3%, with less in attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis (AFAP) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) represented by the (25%), and (16.7) respectively.The last part related with immunological test were done by detection of tumor markers represented by Carcino Embryonic Antigen (CEA), IL - 33 and IL - 31.These markers represented a confirmative indicators for colorectal adenocarcinoma which were tested by ELISA technique in (79) patients confirmed with CRC of male and female. These tumor markers in tested with patients showed high significant differences (p?0.01) compared with healthy controls. Another immunological test for detection of Human papilloma virus (HPV) type 18 E6 gene expression in CRC by Immune histochemistry technique (IHC) in 71 (FFPET) of CRC. The results of this study showed there were a correlations between patients and adenocarcinoma positive HPV18 E6 infection 43.7% of patients infected with virus, with high significant differences (p?0.01) and higher infection in female (67.7%) than male (32.3%). So as a correlations were found between HPV18 E6 expression and tumor tissue locations, explained by high percentage 45.2% in rectum.While a tumor marker was (CD8+) was used to determine its role in human immune surveillance in tumor regions of CRC so as with regions which were infected by HPV. The study revealed high significant differences between healthy control and studied groups which have (CD8+) positive infiltration in tumor origins through detection by (IHC).In conclusions diagnosis of CRC can be detected by special genes like K ras gene through professional PCR processing, compact with tumor markers, so as Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) technique provides a precise method which can be used for detection of alteration of molecular and cytogenetic related with CRC.

Abstract: صممت الدراسة الحالية لتوصيف الانماط الجزيئية والمظهرية للنمو والفعالية الانزيمية للانزيم المحلل للبروتين والتنوع الوراثي وعلاقته بالتعبير الجيني بين عزلات الفطر الجلدي.Trichophyto rubrum ولهذا الغرض جمعت 150 عينة سريرية (قشطات جلدية (80), اجزاء شعر (60) | The present study was designed to characterize the morphological and the molecular patterns of growth, enzymic activity of proteases, genetic diversity and their correlation with gene expression among strains of Trichophyton rubrum. For these purpose, A total of 150 clinical specimens (skin scrapings (80), hair fragments (60) and nail clippings (10)) were collected from 100 patients (70 males&80 females) whom clinically diagnosed with dermatophytosis after attendingto the dermatology and venereal diseases centre of Mergan Teaching hospital and private clinic in Babylon city from Feb. 2014 to May 2014. T. rubrum were isolated and identified using cultural, biochemical and physiological tests. Isolates were then subjected for confirmation by PCR, genotyping using RFLP - PCR, sequencing and registration of these sequences in GeneBank for obtaining accession numbers then phylogeny. The growth conditions, were tested, in addition to, the genetic expression of proteases (exocellular protease and endocellular aminopeptidase) were determined using Real - Time PCR. Out of 150 specimens, 24 (16%) isolates were dermatophytic fungi and only 5 (20.8%) of them belong to T. rubrum. The influence of cultural conditions in growth of T. rubrum showed that the 30 ?C, pH 6, SDA medium and 7 days incubation were the optimal conditions for its growth. Proteolytic activity of isolates of T. rubrum against casein as a substrate revealed an ability to produce protease in solid and liquid media after 14 days of incubation. This activity was varies according to the type of isolate where the isolate No.1 (isolated from skin) gave a high proteolytic activity (5.6cm) in solid media and (80.1U/ml) in liquid media in comparison with other tested isolates (No.2 - No.8). on the other hands, the 9 days of incubation, 30 ?C, pH 7 and 0.5% substrate concentration were the optimal condition for proteolytic activity of these isolates. The molecular tests confirmed that all tested isolates belong to T. rubrum with amplicon size (601bp) after amplification of ITS1 primers using PCR technique. While the RFLP - PCR technique showed the presence of two genotypes (I%II) belong to T. rubrum with subgenotypes (Ia - Id) and (IIa - IId) respectively. The relative quantification of proteolytic activity (exocellular protease and endocellular aminopeptidase) produced by T. rubrum genotypes were expressed by using Real - Time PCR after amplification of the target gene of ptotease and aminopeptidase in comparison with housekeeping gene (? - actin) as a reference gene. The results showed the up - regulation of gene encoded to exocellular protease than the down - regulation of endocellular aminopeptidase produced by T. rubrum in the presence of casein as a substrate. The internal transcribed spacer 1, partial sequence, 5.8S ribosomal RNA gene and internal transcribed spacer 2, complete sequence and 28S ribosomal RNA gene, partial sequence of local isolates of T. rubrum were used for sequencing, registration in Genebank - NCBI and phylogeny. Five accession numbers were recorded and available to NCBI, EMBL in Europe and the DNA Bank of Japan. These accession numbers were : KP979787, KP979788, KP979789, KP979790, KP979791. Phylogenetic relation between local strains and world strain showed a high identicasl with T. rubrum (GQ376105.1). This is the first study in Iraq which employed sequencing, registration of sequences in Genebank - NCBI and carrying out phylogeny of local and world strains of T. rubrum.

Abstract: عزلت عشر عزلات من بكتريا Ensifer meliloti من العقد الجذرية لنبات الجت Medicago sativa L. بعد ان جمعت من مناطق مختلفة من محافظة بابل خلال المدة من شهر تشرين الثاني/2012 لغاية شهر شباط/2013. شخصت العزلات جزيئيا بتقنية تفاعل البلمرة السلسلي فضلا عن طرق ال | Ten isolates of Ensifer meliloti were isolated from root nodules of Medicago sativa L. collected from different areas of Babylon province during a period from November - 2012 to February - 2013. The isolates were molecular identified using polymerase chain reaction technique, in addition to traditional methods (morphological and biochemical). All isolates were harboured nodbox and mucR genes and produced cyclic ? - (1, 2) glucans, cellulose fibers and lipopolysaccharide.The ability of isolates to grow at different degrees of pH, temperatures and different concentrations of sodium chloride were tested. It was found that the optimum pH for growing of Em1, Em3, Em4, Em6 and Em8 isolates was pH7, while for the isolates Em2, Em5, Em7, Em9 and Em10 was pH8. The optimum temperature for growing of Em1, Em3, Em5, Em7, Em8 and Em9 isolates was 30?C, while the optimal growth of Em2, Em 4 and Em6 isolates was 35?C, Em10 isolate showed significantly extremism to grow at temperture reached to 45?C. The optimal percentages of NaCl for growing of Em1, Em3, Em4, Em5, Em6, Em8 and Em9 isolates were 2%, for Em7 isolate was 3% and for Em2 and Em10 isolates were 4%. The effect of different degrees of pH on symbiotic properties was studied. Em1 and Em8 isolates that grew at pH6.5 ; all isolates that grew at pH 7, pH 7.5 and pH 8 were able to infect the root hairs of alfalfa plants. The isolates that grew at pH6.5 (except Em1 and Em8 isolates) and all isolates that grew at pH8.5 were failed to infect the root hairs and did not formed nodules and resembled to the control plants (without inoculum).Different concentrations of NaCl on symbiosis was studied, it was found that all isolates that grew at 2% and Em2 and Em10 isolates that grew at 3% formed nodule, while Em1, Em3, Em4, Em5, Em6, Em7, Em8 and Em9 isolates that grew at 3% and all isolates that grew at 4%, 5% and 6% did not elicited nodules on the roots of alfalfa plant. Light microscopic observations of root hairs inoculated with Ensifer meliloti isolates showed the root hair deformations like curling, waviness, swelling and formation of shepherd`s crook and infection thread. These consequent changes lead to emerge the mature nodules having five distinct zones viz., distal meristematic, infection, inter, nitrogen - fixing and proximal senescence zones.The gel electrophoresis results of plasmid DNA of isolates showed that these isolates harboured two megaplasmids. When the isolates exposed to extreme factors like pH, temperture and NaCl, it was found that the isolates lost these plasmids and its ability to elicite the nodules and failed to fix the nitrogen. This study showed that the nitrogen fixing bacteria had essential role to support the plant growth and increase their productivity, and recommended to use the isolate Em10 as example for biofertilizers and the best alternative to the chemical fertilizers
