Abstract: The present study had been carried out to elucidate the toxic effects of sodium fluoride on local rabbit males, this study involved determination of the histological Changes of some organs include (Testes, Liver and Kidney) , moreover study the changes in body weight of the animals and the percentage of organs weight and some blood parameters and biochemistry which include packed cell blood volume (PCV), Hemoglobin (Hb), Total white blood cells, Testosterone hormone, T3, T4 hormones, Glucose concentration, Cholesterol, Urea, Transaminase enzymes and Bilirubin - level in blood. Twenty local adult male rabbits were included this experiment their ages ranged between 10 - 14 months.The animals were treated with oral swallow for 12 weeks. The animals were divided into four groups : control group is treated orally with (0.9%) normal saline; First group was treated orally with 10 mg/kg of body weight sodium fluoride, second group was treated orally with 20 mg/kg of body weight sodium fluoride and third group was treated orally with 30 mg/kg of body weight sodium fluoride. The results of present study showed a significant decreased (P<0.05) in body weight of treated animals with dose of sodium fluoride 20 and 30 mg/kg of body weight, while there is no significant differences in the body weights of treated animals with sodium fluoride dosage of 10 mg/kg of body weight when to compared with control group. The percentage of organ weight to body weight showed a significant decrease in testis weights and liver weight, while there was no significant differences in kidney weight in treated group with sodium fluoride when to compared with control group. Concerning histological changes showed a reduction or freezed stages in spermatogenesis processes which timed with decrease in number of primary spermatocytes and secondary spermatocytes in addition to infiltration of lymphocytes, also found that NaF cause disorganization, denudation, and reduction in germinal epithelial cells of the seminiferous tubules and associated with absence of sperm in the lumina, also showed a decrease in radius of epididymus ducts and decrease in number of sterocilia and decrease number of mature sperms. Histological sections of kidney showed that there was a clear shrinkage of glumeruli.Histological section of kidney of animals that treated with sodium fluoride showed a mild blood vessels congestion, shrinkage in glumeruli, distributed in renal tubules and erode its epithelium with some apoptotic areas. The liver sections appeared appreciable effect with fluoride include dilation in central vein and erode to its epithelium, congestion in hepatic sinusoids with apoptosis and erode to general structure of liver with some of inflammatory cells and death in some cells which lead to erode of typical ray arrangement. Regarding blood parameters the present study showed a significant decrease (P<0.01) in percentage of (PCV) and (Hb) of the animals treated with sodium fluoride, while showed (WBCs) count significant increased compared with control group. Hormonal analysis (Testosterone, T3 and T4) showed a significant decrease, while significant increase of glucose, cholesterol, urea, transaminases enzymes for (AST, ALT) and bilirubin levels. Results obtained from this study and mentioned above may be attributed essentially to that of Naf administration results in sever lesion of male reproductive system wich may be aggravated with increase administration concentration of Naf.

Abstract: Results of clinical and laboratory examination of 239 cases showed 55 infection cases in Cutaneous Leishmaniasis and in infection proportion reaches at 23.01% out of the total number of the Cutaneous cases which are similar to Leishmaniasis during the months of the study. The Results also showed that the highest infection was recorded between the ages 1 - 10 years old and about 26 cases in 47.27% and between 10 - 20 years old about 17 cases in 30.9% and the lowerest was between 40 - 50 and 70 - 80 years old in one cases in 1.8%. The summit of the disease spread was in February for about 24 cases in 43.63% specially in AL - Hamza AL - Sharqi where the highest number of infection was recorded for about 23 cases in 41.81%. It is followed by AL - Shafiya for 10 cases in 18.18% and the lowerest was AL - Mhannawiya for one case in 1.8%. It has been clear that the number of the multiple epidemics is more than the individual ones in 70.5% while the latter in 29.98% respectively. It was focused on hands and legs in 50.35% and 24.46 %. The tissue test showed thick perspiration in the big infected pharynx and lymphatic cell in addition to the existence of abscess to the smash of the infected cell. Forty nine positive cases were found in 89.09% for the genetic material DNA which is connected with Leishmaniasis by mean of NestedPCR to identify the type results showed 47 samples which is L. major in 95.91% and to get sure by investigating the virulence factor lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan and cysteine protease it was found that all sample were positive in 100% as Leishmania. major. To know the affect of treatment pentostam on these samples, the standard proportion for the genetic patterns was calculated factor lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan and cysteine protease during five week. Results showed that there was a big difference for each gene in a solation during the period of treatment in a level of the possibility of (P?0.05) when used test LSD. and by comparing the three genes it was found that there was a meaningful between cysteine protease and the other two factor lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan and there wasn’t difference between lipophosphoglycan, proteophosphoglycan. Hence, it has been clear that the treatment pentostam has a big affect in parasite by its affect on the virulence factors and this explains that possibility of infection may happen again after having the treatment. The skin disease cutaneous Leishmaniasis is considered as one of the endemic parasitic diseases in Iraq. This study aims at identifying its prevalence and specifying the virulence factors in Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in order to define the type of disease reason and the affect of the treatment of Pentostam on the virulence factors lipophosphoglycan, Cysteine protease, proteophosphoglycans by means Real time - PCR

Abstract: Three experiments were conducted on two cultivars of sweet pepper Capsicum annuum L.; Flavio F1 and California wonder, to study the effect of seaweed extract and amino acids mixture and their combination on some vegetative and reproductive parameters, and some physical and qualitative characters of fruits. In addition, the chemical composition of leaves and some anatomical characters of stems were also evaluated. Furthermore, the effect of some treatments on genetic variations in both cultivars were studied. The field experiments were carried out at the fields the College of Agriculture/Al - Qadisiya University. The experiment was started at 18 - 1 - 2013 and ended at 3 - 7 - 2013. Seaweed extract, Basfoliar Kelp SL, was used at two concentrations; 3 or 6 ml. L - 1 in addition to control treatment (distilled water only). Also, a mixture of amino acids was used at two concentrations; 400 or 800 mg. L - 1 in addition to control treatment. Spray with the two substances was done in the early morning. The treatments were designed as a factorial experiment with two factors (3X3) in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The vegetative characters measured included; plant height, number of branches, percent of dry weight of shoot and root, and leaf chlorophyll content. Also, nitrogen percent, phosphorus and potassium content in leaves and roots was determined. The flowering and yield characters included; total number of flowers per plant, fruit set percentage, and total fruit yield per plant. In addition, weight, size, diameter and fruit length were measured. Vitamin C, total phenols, TSS, total sugars, alkaloids percent and the capsicin were measured in fruit juice. The anatomical characters of plant stem were included; epidermis, cortex and vascular bundles thickness, diameter of vascular units and pith thickness. The laboratory experiment was carried out during the period from 2 - 9 - 2013 till 16 - 10 - 2013. Spray with the two substances and their combination, at the same concentrations as used in the field experiment, was done on plants at the true leaves stage. The experiment was design as a factorial experiment with two factors in completely randomized design with four replications. The chemical characters measured in leaves included; content of auxin and gibberellin like substances, activity of catalase and peroxidase enzymes, amino acid content in addition to protein and sugar percent. Also, the genetic variation and genetic distance degree due to some treatments compared to control treatment using the RAPD with five primers was studied. The results were as the following : 1. Using seaweed extract and amino acids mixture, especially at the higher concentration, caused a significant increase in all vegetative characters measured for the two cultivars. 2. There were a pronounced increase in nitrogen percentage in plant shoot and root as the concentration of the treatments increased in both cultivars. 3. Increasing the concentration of the two factors caused an increase in phosphorus content in plant shoot of both cultivars. In roots, the use of the higher concentration of seaweed extract increased phosphorus content in Flavio F1 cultivar only. on the other hand, there was no significant effect on the mineral content in California wonder cultivar. Also, there was no significant effect on the phosphorus content in both cultivars due to the use of the two concentrations of amino acids and the combination of the two factors. 4. The use of seaweed extract caused a significant increase in potassium content in the shoots of the two cultivars. Also, the two concentrations of the amino acids caused an increase in the mineral content in shoots of the Flavio F1 cultivar only, while there was no effect in the California wonder cultivar. In roots, there was a significant effect due to the use of seaweed extract on potassium content, while there was no effect due to the use of the amino acids in Flavio F1 cultivar. In California wonder cultivar, no significant increase in potassium content was recarded in roots due to the use of all concentrations. 5. Seaweed extract and amino acids extract concentrations caused significant increase in total flowers number, fruit set, number of fruits per plant, plant yield and the physical characters of fruits, where the higher concentration of the two substances used gave highest values of fruit diameter, weight and size in both cultivars. Fruit length was not affected in Flavio F1 cultivar only. 6. The use of the two substances caused pronounced increase in TSS, sugars, vitamin C and phenols in the fruit of the two cultivars. Also, The use of seaweed extract had no effect on total alkaloids in Flavio F1 cultivar. While the amino acids mixture at the two concentrations increased alkaloids percent in fruit of the two cultivars. Also, there was a clear increase in the active ingredient (capsicin alkaloid) as the concentrations of the two substances used increase. 7. Both substances increased the auxin like substances in leaves of the two cultivars. The gibberelline like substances did not affect due to the use of seaweed extract of either cultivars. Amino acids had no significant effect. 8. The use of seaweed extract and amino acids mixture and their combination caused a significant increase in catalase and peroxidase activity in leaves, except the activity of peroxidase in leaves of California wonder cultivar which not affected by the seaweed extract. 9.Total free amino acids content and protein percent increased as the concentration of the two factors increased. Also, seaweed extract had significant effect on the percent of the total sugar. Amino acids treatments had no effect on sugar percent. 10.Using seaweed extract or amino acids caused an increase in epidermis and cortex thickness and size of vascular bundles of stem of both cultivars. 11.The use of seaweed extract, especially at the higher concentration, had significant effect in increasing the diameter of vascular units, while there was no effect due to the use of the amino acids. 12.There was a negative effect of the seaweed extract on pith thickness due to the use of the seaweed extract. on the other hands, the amino acids treatments caused an increase in stem pith. 13.The combination between seaweed extract and amino acids treatment had significant effect on most of the morphological, physiological and anatomical characters studied for both cultivars. 14.Increasing concentrations of seaweed extract and amino acids mixture or their combination caused an increase in DNA and RNA content in leaves of the two cultivars. The increase was greater at the higher concentration of both substances used. 15. Treatment with some concentrations of seaweed extract and amino acids and their combination produced plants with genetic variation as compared to the control plant using RAPD technology with five primers. The variation ranged from 13.04% using OPB - 9 primer to 33.33% using OPB - 4 and OPB - 11 primers in Flavio F1 cultivar. In California wonder cultivar, the variation ranged from 4.35% using OPB - 14 primer to 73.33% using OPB - 5 primer.

Four sites selected along the river whithin three provinces; Babylon, Najaf, Al - Qadisiyah. Assessment of water quality done by using Canadian Council of Ministers of Environment (CCME) and Index of Biological Integrity (IBI) for the purpose of determining the validity and quality of its water for the General purpose and for Drinking and Irrigation.The physicochemical properties and biological (Phytoplankton) were studied during the study period. These properties were; temperature of the air and water, light penetration, electrical conductivity, salinity, turbidity, water current speed, total suspended and dissolved solids, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, carbon dioxide, total alkalinity, acidity, total hardness and ions of calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and the sodium adsorption ratio, chlorides, sulfates, boron, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, silica and some heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, zinc, copper, chromium, manganese in both phases : dissolved and particulate. results showed that the values of the physical and chemical factors ranged as follows : (7 - 47) C, (10 - 31) C, (14 - 177.5) cm, (1020 - 5600) µs/cm, (0.65 - 3.46) 0%, (0.07 - 129) NTU, (27.03 - 115.57) cm/s, (591 - 2985) mg/L and (0.001 - 0.128) mg/L, (7.04 - 8.8), (6 - 11.8) mg/L, (0.13 - 6.6) mg/L, (8.2 - 53) mg/L, (81.4 - 198) mg/L, (30 - 200) mg/L, (6 - 46) mg/L, (490 - 929.67) mg/L, (83.37 - 290.18) mg/L, (0.79 - 174.84) mg/L, (92.5 - 713) mg/L, (1.9 - 11.18) meq/L, (6 - 133) mg/L, (97.97 - 861.73) mg/L, (329 - 1040) mg/L (0.01 - 4.23) mg/L, (0.008 - 1.33) µg/l, (2.16 - 44.74) µg/L, (0.012 - 0.59) µg/L and (104 - 514) µg/L respectively.Concerning the heavy elements, the values of dissolved cadmium ranged between (undetectable - 0.075 mg/L) and it's particulate between (0.0043 - 0.2705) mg /L and dissolved lead between (undetectable - 0.0232 mg /L) and it's particulate between (0.0045 - 0.148) mg/L and dissolved zinc between (un - detectable - 0.0168 mg/L) and it's particulate between (0.0115 - 0.316 mg/L) and dissolved copper (undetectable - 0.0273 mg/L) and copper is particulate between (0.0062 - 0.063 mg /L) and dissolved chromium between (undetectable - 0.0193 mg/L) and the chromium is particulate between (0.0043 - 0.0449) mg/L and dissolved manganese (undetectable - 0.0256) mg/L and it's particulate between (0.0085 - 0.0739) mg/L.The biological tests include Qualitative and Quantitative Study on phytoplankton and also included calculating the total number of coliform way casting dishes by using the MacConkey Agar media.The number of diagnosed species of Phytoplankton was 295 species, belonging to 74 genera. The Diatoms Bacillariophyceae won the biggest part of it as it formed 160 species and 35 genera any rate (54.24%), followed by green algae (70 species belonging to 24 genera) and green algae (52 species belonging to 11 genera) then Euglenophyceae (10 species belonging to both sexes), while golden brown algae and algae Pyrrophyceae were less algal groups registered as belonging to the two single - sex. Some types of phytoplankton existed in most of the duration of the study, including Bacillaria paxillifera, Cocconies placentula, Cyclotella meneghiniana, Diatoma elongatum, Fragilaria virescence, Melosira ambigua, Synedra acus.The total number of phytoplankton is estimated between (104.9 - 4460.09) cell × 103/liter. An increase in the number of phytoplankton in July and January was observed clearly. The concentrations of chlorophyll - a were ranged between (0.0693 - 9.78 mg /L). While the total number of results for coliform were (5 - 281 × 103) cells/liter, The water quality of the evidence Account (Canadian model) using a number of physical, chemical and Biological properties. The results showed that the waters of the Euphrates are located within categories (Poor - Good) with respect to the public evidence of the quality of water of this river while it was located within categories (Poor - Acceptable) with respect to their use for drinking, While its use for irrigation purposes, it was clear that run river water data fall into two categories (Poor - Good). The results of the analysis of the main components Principal component Analysis (PCA) indicate that the nitrates and the total number of coliform and dissolved oxygen, phosphate, zinc, lead and Biological oxygen demand and pH are the biggest impact on the water quality of the index values of the variables of general purpose.These factors are responsible for the deviation index values, followed by turbidity and total hardness and electrical conductivity and temperature of the water, copper, chromium, and cadmium heat. But with the biggest impact of the index water quality factors for drinking purposes are chloride and electrical conductivity and total hardness, magnesium, turbidity and basal college, sodium, calcium, copper, sulfates, nitrates and coliform, zinc and dissolved oxygen, pH, manganese and lead followed by boron nitrite, cadmium, chromium and vital requirement for oxygen. While the chloride and conductivity electrical, the proportion of sodium, copper, zinc and adsorption of boron have greatest influence on the value of water quality index for irrigation, followed by manganese, cadmium, chromium, lead and pH.The phytoplankton index of Biotic Integrity (P - IBI) has been calculated using ten units including (relative abundance of green algae, green algae, pyrrophyta, Euglenophyta, Xanthophyta, Centralales, pennales, species richness index, the density of phytoplankton and chlorophyll a) The results showed that phytoplankton index of Biotic Integrity values ranging between (47 - 74) in the first position and (47 - 67) in the second location, and (45 - 76) in the third site and (45 - 71) in the fourth site. In other words, phytoplankton index of Biotic Integrity with estimating index (good - poor). The results showed the effectiveness of phytoplankton index of Biotic Integrity values in estimating the environmental changes.

The results showed that all isolates were complete resistance (100%) against Erythromycin, Tetracycline, Rifampin and Ciprofloxacin. While its resistance for other antibiotics was varied. The resistance isolates for Chloramphenicol, Nitrofurantoin, Penicillin, Gentamycin and Vancomycin were 50 %, 85%, 60 %, 70 % and 35 %, respectively. The results showed that the total resistance for E.faecalis isolates was higher than the sensitivity (more than 70% of these antibiotics). Polymerase chain reaction was used for detecting some genes for antibiotics resistance. The results showed that 7 bacterial isolates had van gene which were resistance to Vancomycin. 6 isolates of these bacteria contained vanB gene while one isolate contained vanA gene. Also the results showed that the bacterial isolates had antibiotics resistance genes as follow : aac (6) - aph (2) gene responsible for resistance to Gentamycin, cat gene responsible for resistance to Chloramphenicol, erm (A)gene responsible for resistance to Erythromycin, and tet (M) gene responsible for resistance to Tetracycline were 70%, 50%, 45%, 100% respectively. Some virulence factors had been detected for bacterial isolates including the ability of isolates of haemolysin production, protease production, gelatinase production and the ability to capsule formation. The results showed that 5 isolates (25 %) its ability of producing was type beta, and 15 isolates(75%) its ability of producing protease, 8 (40%) its ability of producing the gelatinase , and 5 isolates (25%) had the ability on capsule formation. The investigation for these virulence factors in genotypic method, the results showed that bacterial isolates had cylA gene responsible for the production of haemolysin, asal gene responsible for the production of aggregation substance, esp gene responsible for the production of Surface proteins for Enterococcus faecalis and hyl gene responsible for the production of hyaluronidase the percentage 25%, 90%, 55% and 5% respectively.

Abstract: The aim of This study is to determine the prevalence of OXA ? - lactamase in pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from clinical and other environmental cases in Al - Diwaniya Teaching Hospital using phenotypic and molecular methods.The Samples of the study were collected from various sources and they were 390 samples for the period from November 2011 to March 2012, and they includ (292 clinical specimens and 98 environmental sample), the results of cultural and biochemical tests showed that 50 isolates (39 of them were from clinical cases and 11 were from environmental samples), belonged to ps. aeruginosa, and their diagnosis were confirmed by 16s - ribosomal RNA, and the study showed that all the isolates containing the 16s - ribosomal RNA gene, which represents the designed diagnostic gene in this study.The results of this study showed that the higher rate of P. aeruginosa isolates was due to burns infections (23.68 %) , followed by respiratory tract infections (sputum) that were (15.38 %) and then the case to otitis media infections (12.5 %), and lastly that due to urinary tract infections (10.49 %), while the rate isolation from the environmental samples was (5.11 %) from the floor of burns department, followed by (10.8 %) from the medical instruments of department workers.It was noted from this study that the age and gender of the patients have some effect on the infection by P. aeruginosa it was recorded that the higher rate of infection was in patients older then 61 year old, and regarding gender, it was found that females are more infected than male, especially in urinary tract infections. The study showed that there is high rate of infection in the admitted patients, in older people and in those who need urinary catheterization, in addition to those with severe burns and those in the intensive care units. Drug sensitivity test had been carried out for all the bacterial isolates to 22 types of antibiotics by disk diffusion method of Kirby - Bauer, and this study had indicated that there was relatively high resistance from P. aeruginosa to ? - lactam antibiotics, aminoglycoseides, and fluoroquinolone. The results also showed that the studied isolates has possibility of producing broad - spectrum ? - lactames enzymes, and this is supported by the resistance of this bacteria to the third generation cephalosporins and to Alaztronam, it was also shown that there was difference in the resistance to carbapenems antibiotics, the resistance rate to imipenem and meropenem were 16% and 64 %, respectively. Polymyxin B and Polymyxin E also called (Colistin) antibiotics were also used, and the resistance rate %0 for Colistin and %4 for Polymyxin B, that means there was two isolates which are resistant to Polymyxin B and this resistance was a challenge to the success of therapeutic efforts. this study noted that there was 22 (44%) isolates which were resistant to at least three types of antibiotics, and regarded as multi - drug resistant (MDR) and Extensive - drug resistance (XDR) isolates were26 (52%) which was the higher rate among the three types of resistance, The third type of resistance was 2 (4%) which represents the resistance to all types of studied antibiotics (PDR). The ability of these isolates to produce broad - spectrum OXA ? - lactames enzymes groups was investigated thrrough detection of presence of genes blaOXA - 10, blaLCR - 1, blaOXA - 18, blaOXA - 1, blaOXA - 2 in these isolates by using the polymerization chain reaction enzyme technology] (PCR) it showed 50/50 (100%) isolates contain blaOXA - 10 gene, which belongs to the OXA group I, and the results of this study showed no amplification results for blaOXA - 18, blaLCR - 1, blaOXA - 1, blaOXA - 2 genes, which belong to the main groups of broadspectrum OXA ? - lactames enzymes which are OXAgroup II, OXAgroup III and OXA groupV respectively except OXA18 enzyme

Abstract: اجريت هذه الدراسة لتحديد العلاقة بين السموم الفطرية وحالات الفشل الكلوي غير معروف الاسباب لدى المرضى المراجعون الى مستشفى الديوانية التعليمي للفترة من اذار/2012 الى كانون الثاني/2013 والذين تم تشخيصهم من قبل الاطباء المختصون. اظهرت نتائج فحص عينات الادرا | This study was designed to detection the Relationship between some fungi and it’s toxin with Renal falier in patients suffer from Renal falier attended to Al - Diwanyia teaching hospital in period from March/ 2012 to January/ 2013, These patients were diagnosed by physician in above hospital. By using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) the results showed 23.07% from patients blood specimens had Ochratoxin A, 19.23% from patients urine specimens had Ochratoxin A 38.46% from patients had Ochratoxin A in blood and urine where only 59.61% your blood and urine were clear from above toxin, So healthy persons were had Ochratoxin A in your blood and urine by rate 20% 40% respectively and 10% from them had Ochratoxin A in your blood and urine and only 65% from them don’t had Ochratoxin A in their blood and urine.the concentration of Ochratoxin A in blood were ranged between 6.2 - 25.8 ?g/kg from weight boody and 4 - 10.3?g/kg in urine and in healthy reach concentration of Ochratoxin A in blood 2.3 - 3 ?g/kg from weight boody and 4.3 - 4.6 ?g/kg in urine.The data of this study showed the male highly infected 87.5% with ocratoxin while in female 70% and 71 - 80 years age had highly infected 92.85% with ochratoxin A. The results of study of biochemical parameter in patients showed highly raised in WBC and urea and Keratinin to reach to 12000 corpuscle /ml3 310 mg/dl, 12.2 mg /dl respectively and lowed the activity of alkaline phosphates enzyme and albumin into 2.2 u/l, 1.5 gm/dl, respectively and suger 120 mg /dl. The results of isolation and diagnosis by depending on Morphological, Microscopical and Biochemical characters showed there were two species of fungi belong to Aspergillus sp, include A. ochraceaus 25.42%, A. niger 12.71% and A. candidus 15.25% and Candida albicans 46.61% were isolated from urine patients where only C. albicans and C. krusi were isolated from blood of patient by percentage 66.66% and 33.33% respectively. So the results of single PCR method selected to detection the OCR and PSK genes in Aspergills spp which responsible for ochratoxin A production , showed 83.33% from A. ochraceaus isolates had OCR gene (907 bp) and 66.66% from A. nger had PSK gene (584bp)Also the results of this study showed A. ochraceus and A. niger had ability to produce metabolic compounds when grow on yeast - extract broth and these compounds had significant toxic effects(P?0.05) in biochemical parameters in albino rats represented raised number of white blood cells (WBCs) into 10610 cell/µm3, urea into 228 mg/dl and Keratinin into 15 mg/dl in blood of animals which treated with 5000 ?l/kg from metabolic products of above fungi respectively, comparative with control groups 10100 cell/µm3. in other side, these metabolic products caused in same dose lead to lower of albumin and activity of alkaline phosphatase enzyme into 2.8 mg/dl and 3.7 u/l respectively where normal level for this parameter in control groups.Histological study showed the dose of metabolic products 500 - 5000 µl/kg for both fungi caused pathogenic changes in kidney represented by, atrophy highly proliferation of cells in endothelial layer of Bowman's capsules in addition to hemorrhage and Focal agrgregate inflammatory cells.In other side, study of toxicity of ochratoxin A which extracted by using thin layer chromatography (TLC) teqnique from urine and blood of patients and yeast extract broth media that had growth of A. ochraceus and A. niger showed signification effects(P?0.05) for this compound in physiological and biochemical parameters also caused significant effects in histological parameters similar to these effects which occurred in previsious experiments while these effect don’t appear in control groups.

Abstract: This study was carried out during the period from October 2013 to September 2014. Salmonella typhi Samples were obtained from the Central Health Laboratory for the purpose of purification capsular polysaccharide antigen (Vi Ag). Capsular polysaccharide antigen was loaded on chitosan nanoparticle and tetanus toxoid. Recorded results showed that the antibody titers in (T1) Vi Ag + chitosan groups(620.8±364.8) were increased significantly than other groups, it included (T2) Vi Ag group (448±117.73), (T3) Vi + Tetanus toxoid group (537.6±142.53) and (T4) Vi Ag+ Ch. +TT group (121.6±38.4) at (P? 0.05).The documented results of total and differential WBCs counts were showed a significant increment in group (T1) (21020 ± 891.85 cell/1ml) compared with the control group (C) (5500 ± 230.94 cell/1ml) and other groups, it included (T3) group (10740 ± 980.61 cell/1ml), (T4) group (10650 ± 1217.78 cell/1ml) and (T2) group (9980 ± 572.18 cell/1ml) at (p? 0.05). on the other hand, the results of differential count showed elevation in percentage of neutrophils in group (T2) (40 ± 1.89%) compared with the control group (C) (33.3333 ± 0.66%) and other group, it included a (T3) group (33.6 ± 0.67%), (T4) group (34 ± 1.37%) and (T1) group (19.4 ± 0.66%) at (p? 0.05). Results also showed an increase in lymphocytes in the group (T1) (79.2 ± 2.7%) compared with the control group (58.3333 ± 1.76%) and other group, it included (T4) group (62 ± 2.06%), (T3) group (61.2 ± 2.72%) and (T2) group (55.8 ± 1.11%) at (p? 0.05).Also The study included determination the level of gene expression of two clusters of differentiation, CD25 and CD29 gene expression by RT - qPCR. The results of relative gene expression in CD25 gene showed in T4 (5.1936±2.17) were increased significantly than other groups, it included T1 (2.5604±0.64), T2 (3.7032±0.54) and T3 (4.4739±1) at (P? 0.05). The results of relative gene expression in CD29 gene which showed T3 (162.3256±89.52), increased significantly than other groups, it included T1 (33.8276±16.6), T2 (59.6817±26.65), and T4 (37.9605±3.09) at (P? 0.05).This findings were supported by the increment activity determined in lymph nodes of spleen & thymus which increased in size and numbers with active germinal centers. The overall results indicated that the use of chitosan nano particles and tetanus toxoid can enhance and improve the immune response against a given vaccines.
