Mass Spectra of ligands and their complexes were supported their molecular formula, while H1NMR spectra of ligands agreed well with the suggested structures , The C.H.N. and Atomic absorption analysis showed a good agreement with the calculated values , The purity of ligands and their complexes were examined by TLC and the values of Rf were values measured.Electronic spectra of complexes showed a bathochromic shift comparing to ligands spectra as a result of the coordination between the metal ions and ligands. The concentrations that obeyed Beer - Lambert Law of the complexes were determined from calibration curves , Mole Ratio Method indicate a ratio (1 : 2) (Metal : ligand) for the complexes of (DPEPI) and (DPDED) while other complexes with other ligands show a ratio (1 : 1) (Metal : ligand).Satiability Constants of the complexes were calculated and found that the Stability constants of complexes of the first ligand (DPEPI) were ( 2.955×10 12) >(2.294× 1011 ) <(1.121×10 12 ) < (1.108 ×1011 ) varied in the arrangement as Co(II)< Ni(II) < Cu(II)> Zn(II) which agree with Irving - Williams Series. This arrangement was applied on the complexes of the other ligands. The Conductivity measurements of complexes showed non ionic character. Apparently the magnetic susceptibility values agree with their values of the octahedral high spin complexes for Co(II)) while the complexes of Zn(II), Cd(II), and Hg(II) were diamagnetic. IR Spectra of complexes showed obvious changes of the frequencies of ? (N=N) of azo group and ?(C=N) of heterocyclic imidazole ring as result of coordination with metal ions, While the frequencies of ?(C=N) of azomethine group did not show any significant change for complexes comparing to the ligands spectra ,New bands were appeared in the region (400 - 500) cm - 1 in the spectra of complexes that due to frequencies of ?(M - N) because of coordination process. From the previous results the purposed structures of the complexes can be summarized as shown in the following : Proposal structure of (DPEPI) Complexes Proposal structure of (DIDHP), (DIDMP),

The RLSD at 0.05 was used as a method to compare means separation treatment effect was evident. The results showed : 1 - Al - Husenawyia variety was superior in total leaf area, vegetative fresh and dry weights, root fresh and dry weights, P% and content addition to specific leaf weight, relative growth rate, fruit length, number of fruit/plant, fruits yield compared to Al - Pteira. Percentage of protein, carbohydrates, total soluble solids, caprylic, lauric saturated fatty acids and all the unsaturated fatty acids. Mucilage, folic acid and oil refractive index were also higher with Al - Husenawyia compared to Al - Pteira had higher stem diameter, fruit fresh and dry weight, K%, boron content and percentage of saturated fatty acids (Myristic, Palmatic, Stearic, Arachidic and Behinic). Ca% was the same for both cultivars.2 - Foliar application method of humic acid and zolfast showed beneficial effect on and all parameters studies except root fresh and dry weight and percentage of saturated fatty acids increased with irrigation water (except Lauric acid which was increased with foliar application). Methods of application did not affect stem diameter, Ca% in leaves and fruit total soluble solids.3 - Although the double recommended concentrations of humic acid and Zolfast reduced saturated fatty acids significantly their recommended concentration lowered saturated fatty acids (Caprylic, Myristic, Palmatic, Stearic, Arachidic and Behinic) compared to control treatment. Percentage of fiber was lower with the use of zolfast compared to humic acid and control. While K% was lowered when zolfast used in the double recommended concentration. No significant difference were found between the recommended concentrations of humic acid or zolfast in stem diameter, total leaf area, relative growth rate, vegetative dry weight, root dry weight, P%, Ca%, boron content, fruit length, number of fruit/ plant, fruit dry weight, mucilage, carbohydrates%, folic acid, oil%, percentage of saturated fatty acids (Caprylic, Myristic, Palmatic and Arachidic) and unsaturated fatty acids (Oleic and Linoleic) and the percentage of unsaturated fatty acids/saturated.4 - The interaction between cultivars and methods of application revealed that foliar application of both humic acid and zolfast reduced saturated fatty acid (Caprylic, Myristic, Palmatic, Stearic and Arachidic) significantly of both cultivars, compared to their addition to irrigation.5 - The interaction between cultivars and substances of application (humic acid and zolfast concentrations revealed that both cultivars had different response in some traits of studied to applied concentrations of humic and zolfast. Al - Husenawyia variety had higher vegetative fresh weight, root dry weight and fruit of mucilage content with the double recommended humic acid. While Al - Pteira variety had higher TSS% and Lauric acid% when used the double recommended concentration of zolfast.6 - The interaction between methods of application and concentrations of application substances showed superior effect on some studied parameters. Foliar application method was superior on addition to irrigation application with all concentrations except root fresh and dry weight and saturated fatty acids% (except Lauric acid) which were increased when added to the irrigation water to all concentrations of application substances. The same interaction did not revealed significant difference in stem diameter, Ca% and fruit fresh and dry weight.7 - The three way interaction factors studied in the experiment revealed an increase in growth parameter of both cultivars when humic acid and zolfast were added in their higher concentration (double recommended) by foliar application expect root fresh and dry weight and saturated fatty acids% (except Lauric acid) which were increased when added to the irrigation water. Al - Husenawyia variety was higher in all parameters with the use of higher concentration of humic acid and zolfast when applied with irrigation water or foliar application. The three way interaction revealed no significant difference in stem diameter, vegetative dry weight, Ca%, fruit fresh and dry weight, TSS%, percentage of oil and unsaturated fatty acids (Linoleic and Myristoleic).8 - Results of electrophoresis analysis revealed that the use of the doubled recommended concentration of humic acid and zolfast with irrigation water participated in building higher protein molecules in fruits to both cultivars. While the double recommended concentration of humic acid and zolfast did not show this trait when foliar applied.

Where the environment examples collected from different places of riverbed Al diwaniya. The duration of collection samples has lasted for 3 months, started One handrad isolated had been diagnosed that proved its belong to a bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, 50 isolated where taken from environment isolate and the other 50 taken from clinical isolate depending on the diagnostic methods which included tests of farm, microscopic and biochemical, It was also confirm the diagnosis of bacterial using accurate diagnosis that uses device VITEK System tested sensitivity of bacteria isolate of S. aureus, against 12 selected antibiotic, environment and clinical cases has shown resistance and sensitivity of different varied by source isolate, the nature of the antibiotic and the resistance and sensitivity have been determined by measuring diameters of areas inhibition around tablets of antibiotics it used.All the clinical isolates showed a complete resistance for the antibiotic Lincomycin with 100% percentage, where it's resisted Pnicillin G with 92%, Nalidixic acid with 42%, while the highest resistance of environment isolates was 97% for Lincomycin. The clinical isolates showed a sensitively against the two antibiotics which are Cefamandol and Cephalothin, where their percentages reached 98% and 89%, respectively. Where the percentage of environment isolates reached for the same antibiotics 100% and 97% respectively. In general, the clinical isolates were more resisted for the antibiotics than environment isolates in overall rate.differed values of minimum inhibitory concentrationsmic MIC and the minimum bactericidal concentration MBC among each other with variation of clinical isolates from side and differed with environment isolates from another side while the values differed with environment and clinical isolates from third side, where the highest value reached of MIC against Polymyxin B is (20 - 120) and (100 - 240) mg/ml for environment and clinical isolates respectively, while the highest value of MIC that also was against Polymyxin B reached (40 - 140) and (130 - 250) mg/ml for environment and clinical isolates respectively. Where the value of MIC against Cephalothin reached (0.01 - 0.6) and (0.8 - 2.0) mg/ml for environment and clinical isolates respectively. Finally, the highest value of MBC also was against Cephalothin reached (0.08 - 0.9) and (0.9 - 3.0) mg/ml respectively. In general, the bactericidal and inhibitory concentrations of the clinical isolates are higher concentrations from those bactericidal and inhibitory concentrations for environment isolates.I studied the virulence factors that come from strains of S. aureus bacteria environment and clinical which included Capsula, enzymes of Coagulase that are associated and free, , Lipase, Hyaloronidase and B - Lactamase in addition to Haemolysin clinical isolates and Leucocidin and all the environment isolates are the highest percenage in the ability to form and possess virulence factors compared with environment isolates, where the highest percentage to produce virulence factors is belongs to the Haemolysin which reached 94% percentage in the clinical isolates where in the environment isolates reached 64% percentage followed by Leucocidin that reached 84% percentage in the clinical samples and 40% percentage in the In environmental samples.Also the percentage of blood Coagulation enzyme the associated and free is the highest percentage in the clinical isolates which reached percentage 42% and 38% for the associated and free respectively, where the percentage in environment reached 20% and 36% respectively and the virulence factors was the least presence in the environmental and clinical isolates is the portfolio that reached percentage of presence 22% and 12% respectively.

Abstract: هدفت الدراسة الحالية الى اثبات العلاقة بين الاصابة بداء المقوسات وحالات ضعف الخصوبة عند الذكور من خلال دراسة التغيرات في المعايير التكاثرية والهرمونات التكاثرية والتغيرات المرضية النسجية للحيوانات المصابة تجريبا بطفيلي المقوسة الكوندية Toxoplasma gondii, | The present study aimed to demonstrate the relationship between toxoplasmosis and cases of low fertility in males by examining changes in reproductive parameters, reproductive hormones and histopathological changes of experimentally infected rats, the study also aimed to prove the case of the venereal transmission of parasite from male to female and vice versa. The study carried out in three phases, the first phase includes determining the infection rate of the parasite for men who suffer from low fertility rate, as it has been serologically detecting the presence of IgG antibodies to the parasite by ELISA technique in the laboratory of parasites / College of Veterinary Medicine in 46 serum samples of blood for men attend to the Center for Infertility Research embryos of the Faculty of Medicine / University of Al - Nahrain and Al - Zahra Hospital and particular laboratories in Wasit province, who proved to have a laboratory case of weakness in reproductive parameters of semen in the rate of infection was 34.78%, then was to investigate the level of reproductive hormones (testosterone, follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone), it was the men who had lower levels of these hormones 58.33% and 50% and 1.664%, respectively. The second phase included the parasite Toxoplasma gondii isolated from placental samples of aborted women and brain samples of local chicken after confirming the presence of the parasite in those samples by impression smear, As to isolate the parasite the samples was catting and grinding, filtered and centrifugation after it was suspended in physiological solution at three times.These isolates were used for experimental infection in 60 of the male albino rats norvegicus Rattus age (60_70) days and an average of weights 200_250 grams injected each of them within the peritoneum 0.3ml each animal and containing 100 cysts, 30 of which form the suspension of placenta and 30 from the suspension brain of local chicken in rats experimental infection, injection of 10 for each of the male rats and 10 female rats by suspension of placenta for experimental infection and after seven weeks of infection, put 10 healthy females with males infected experimentally and 10 healthy males with infected female for the purpose of mating to ensure for the transition infection of the parasite sexually and then confirm infection by using the direct smear (impression) and the Real - Time polymerase chain reaction technique and histological sections in the experience of experimental infection and transitional infection of parasite. It emerged the effective of infection on reproductive parameters in experimentally infected rats as negative recorded changes represented in the weights of reproductive organs, sperm concentration, motility, viability and the percentage of abnormalities compared with control group and in significant differences in 0.05 except the sperm motility which recorded significant differences in animals injected with suspension of brain domestic chicken and no significant differences in animals injected with suspension of placenta, also recorded the absence of sperm in the semen of infected rats by 40% in each of the animals that were injected placenta and injected samples of the brain of domestic chicken, as it was for the transmission of the infection to the male effect on reproductive parameters sperm in all reproductive parameters in study and significant difference for all parameters except the sperm motility compared with control group in significant differences in 0.05.With regard to the rates of sex hormones (LH, FSH, T) has recorded a significant decrease of the animals experimentally infection, which amounted to 4.588, 4.648, 6.657, either male rats venereal infected there was a decrease in the levels of hormones three significant differences and rates of 4.762, 5.644, 2.21, respectively, compared with control group which recorded 10.514, 12.210, 10.576, respectively, as rates were hormones low for normal level in females venereal infected except hormone LH as record rate 8.132 higher than the average private control group, which amounted to 5.335, as the rates of hormone (FSH, T) for females venereal infected 2.901, 5.596, respectively, compared to the control group, which recorded 4.71, 1.79, respectively.The initial diagnosis of the infection by using the impression smear method and its emphasis by molecular diagnosis REALTIME PCR technique, as was the incidence100% of the first method, either way in the second technique in rats injected with Suspension parasite of placenta 90% while it was 100% in rats injected parasite brain domestic chicken, the percentage of infection was varied in organs as recorded lowest infection in the first group in the liver and the testis was 20% either the highest percentage recorded in the semen and 90% either in brain samples was 26%, while the lowest infection for the second group it was 20% in the liver, brain and testis either the highest proportion it was 100% of the semen, and whend vice versa, in 100% for both groups by imprassion smear method, either way RT.PCR was recorded the percentage of infection in uninfected females which mated with infected males 100% divided by the organs as the lowest infection recorded in the uterus was 30% and the highest rate of infection was in the liver, brain was 100% either ovary was the presence of parasite in which 60%, while the incidence of total uninfected male who have been mated experimentally infected female100% divided by the organs as the highest rate of infection was in semen was 100% and either in the liver there have been no cases were positive remember and so the infection was 0% either infection rates recorded for the tissue of the brain and testis were 40%, 50%, respectively, either with regard to prove the existence of the parasite, depending on tissue sections of these tissues have been diagnosed with the parasite in addition to histological pathological changes occur where the male rats experimentally infected and all of the male and female in experience. As the percentage of pregnancies in the two groups of animals mating 35%, the percentage of infection in newborn brain has reached100%, which proves the case of vertical transmission of the parasite for newborns of infected mother parasite

The evaluation of water quality includes18 parameters as confirmed on spatial and temporal changes of these parameters, as well as the algal contents of these four stations(S1, S2, S3and S4). The results of physical and chemical analysis show the following ranges of : temperature (12.5 - 41.5°C), total dissolved solids TDS(692 - 1384.6 mg/l), total suspended solids TSS(58 - 277.4 mg/l), electrical conductivity EC(1225 - 2045µS/cm2), pH(7.0 - 7.8), dissolved oxygen DO(0.7 - 8.51mg/l), biological oxygen demand BOD(48.82 - 205 mg/l), total alkalinity (170.7 - 428 mg/l), total hardness TH (412 - 1623.3 mg/l), calcium (89.7 - 204.14 mg/l), magnesium (37.7 - 332.5 mg/l), nitrite (0.43 - 12.25 mg/l), nitrate(6.18 - 63.75 mg/l), phosphate (0.813 - 20.24 mg/l), lead (0.0983 - 1.076 mg/l), chromium (0.007 - 0.045mg/l), cadmium (0.0374 - 0.326 mg/l) and the total algal number(17.00 - 14202 individual/l).The spatial and temporal variations show significant differences at(P?0.05) among studied factors in the different stations.The qualitative study of algae reports that the dominance is to the blue green algae(Cyanophyta)by 46%, then is followed by diatoms(Bacillariophyta) by 26% down with Dinophyta3%, according to Shannon - Wiener index of diversity (H), the fall and winter classified as severely polluted all around the stations 0.377 and 0.669, respectively, while summer and spring are moderate pollution of a category (II) and the values of (H) is1.374 and 1.395 respectively, in situ has been observed that the stations are classified as highly polluted and have been ranked within the category(I) and the stations arranged according to the pollution as S3 <S4< S2< S1.According to Species richness index the first station S1 is the best, follows by S4, S3 while S2 comes the last in order, but in the terms of total abundance has topped the third station S3 among the others, then followed by S4, S2 and finally S1. on the other hand the current study includs laboratory investigation to demonstrate the efficiency of algae and aquatic plants to improve water quality as it has been experimenting with immobilization of algae technique, a new method has been used for the first time at the local level in the current study. The results show that the immobilized algae Stigonema sp.and Cladophora glomerata have lowered the pH of the treated wastewater which began relatively high, as well as increasing dissolved oxygen concentrations at the end of the experiment all transactions free and immobilized treatments , on the other side TSS has been reduced about 61.8% when treated with immobilized algae C.glomerata, nitrite has also been reduced at about 96.7% and 85.5% by Stigonema sp.and C.glomerata respectively, nitrate also has been reduced by 99.9% and 95.2% when treated with Scendesmus dimorphus and C.glomerata respectively, while the removal of phosphate reaches its peak when it has been treated with free Stigonema sp. and immobilized S.dimorphus by 99.92% and 98.35% respectively.The tested algae shows a great ability to reduce heavy metals, when immobilized alga Oscillatoria sp. removes about 94.27% of Lead, while free Stigonema sp. and C.glomerata are the best in Chromium removal about 92.42% and 92.35% respectively, and the C.glomerata is the best in Cadmium processing, a reduced rate of 99.21% followed by immobilized S.dimorphus of 97.13%. The current study also involves a laboratory experiment to evaluate the potential of two aquatic plants duckweed (Lemna minor L.)and water hyacinth Eichhornia crassipes Mart.(Solms.) in improving the quality of wastewater the tested plants have been worked at increasing the aeration of treated water by raising dissolved oxygen concentration about 85.26% and 84.4% for duckweed and water hyacinth, on the other hand the relative efficiency to reduce the pollutants by aquatic plants as follows : EC, NO2, NO3(31.66% and 28.45%, 55.7% and 50.01%, 55.7% and 13.3%)for duckweed and water hyacinth respectively, from another side water hyacinth is the most efficient in phosphate reducing at rate of 90.5% comparing with duckweed 49.78%.On the of heavy metals treatment the tested plants show a remarkable removal of lead 88.23% and 80.4% , chromium 97.84% and 95.18% for duckweed and water hyacinth respectively, with respect to cadmium, water hyacinth shows high efficiency in the removal of this metal by 98.14%, while duckweed is the least in the treatment of Cd by 81.8%. From the above results, the current study demonstrates that there are a spatial and temporal variations regarding the factors examined in the stations of wastewater treatment units and confirms that the efficiency of studied wastewater treatment stations is below the required level, which contributes in increasing the pollution of Al - Dewaniyah River, which is the unique source to supply the city with freshwater for all purposes, that receives large loads of pollutants.The study also confirms that the evaluation of the presence of algae in the studied stations.Thus the knowledge of algal composition could give an early warning and accurate assessment about the quality of sewage before dumping into river. In addition to the forgoing, it is concluded that the biological treatment (bioremediation) of wastewater using free and immobilized algae and aquatic plants have improved dramatically and tangibly the benefits of the quality of that water being a promising approach of the wastewater treatment as well as being low cost economically.

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: اجريت الدراسة الحالية على جزء من بيئة نهر الفرات الممتد بين مدينتي الكفل والشنافية لمدة عام تقويمي من ايار 2013 ولغاية نيسان 2014 واختيرت اربعة مواقع مختلفة وموزعة على منطقة الدراسة شملت ثلاث محافظات هي : بابل - النجف - القادسية (الفرات الاوسط - العراق)، | The current study has applied on the Euphrates River for a full year from May 2013 until April 2014. 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.

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

The maternity hospital, some health centers and competent laboratories in Al - Qadisiya province during the period from 1/11/2012 to 30/6/2013 and for age range of ? 1 - 12 year exclusively. The current study showed the rate of total infection of Giardia parasite was 5.61% (52 of 926 samples). They were examined by direct wet smear method and floatation method by using light microscope to detect the trophozoite and cyst phases of parasite. It was found in numerous stool samples. The results of samples showed that the infection in males was higher than in females 6.12% and 5.11 % respectively. The age range 2 - 4 years recorded highest incidence of infection and the age range 8 - 10 years recorded the lowest incidence of infection 13.87% and 1.52 % respectively. Also it was recorded higher infection rate in June and the lower infection rate in January 10.37% and 1.92% respectively. It was recorded higher infection rate among the rural population in comparing with urban population 7.07% and 4.45 % respectively. statistical analysis results show a significant differences at(P?0.05). In the present study, Real - Time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect Giardia parasite infection in microscope positive examined samples where it had record total Infection rate of 73.07% (38 of 52). Statistical analysis of survey results after depending on PCR technique showed significant differences in infection among the age range. The age range 2 - 4 years had recorded the higher infection rate 83.33% while there are no significant differences of infection according sex.It reached in males to 75% in comparing with females 70.83 %, also it did not show significant differences in infection rate according to living areas.It had reached in rural areas to 75.86 % in comparing with urban areas 69.56%. In addition, polymerase chain reaction technique was used (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP - PCR) to determine genotypes of Giardia intestinalis parasite for 20 case from diarrhea positive cases of children in Al - Qadisiya province, by amplifying gene (gdh) glutamate dehydrogenase gene by using specialists primer. They are GDHiF and GDHiR It got the amplification results successfully in all stool samples of 20 and positive examined Real - Time PCR were it had determined the existence of gdh gene of molecular weight of 432bp in all those samples. The study showed that 7 of the previous samples belong to genotype A (35%) and 13 samples belong to genotype B (65%).It showed that all samples of genotype A belong to secondary genotype AII in rate 100%, while samples of genotype B belong to two secondary genotypes, they are BIII (61.53%) and BIV (38.46%). The study showed the appearance of genotype A in the age range under six years, while genotype B in all age range approximately. The distribution of genotypes according to sex and housing it had record both genotypes appeared in both sex with different rate genotype B was more appearance than genotype A in males than females. According to the nature of housing secondary genotype AII had appeared in rate 70% in urban areas, while genotype B with its secondary different genotypes in both areas urban and rural, but with higher rate in rural areas (100 % and 30 % respectively). We had concluded from the current study that there is a close relationship between infection, the sex, age range, nature of settlment and monthly distribution.There are two basic geno types in province, they are A and B, for each of them there aresecondary genotypes AII, BIII, BIV.

Abstract: اجريت هذه الدراسة للتحري عن الفطريات المسببة للامراض الجلدية في الانسان حيث تم جمع 100عينة من الاشخاص المشكوك باصابتهم بالفطريات الجلدية من المرضى المراجعين لمستشفى الديوانية التعليمي من بداية تشرين الاول 2013 وحتى نهاية مايس 2014 وكانت هذه النماذج ماخوذة | This study was conducted to investigate the fungi that causes skin diseases of human. One hundred samples were collected from people who suspected to infect with fungal skin disease from patients coming to Al - Diwaniya teaching hospital from beginning of October 2013 till the end of May 2014. These samples from (skin, hair and nail). All samples that taken from patient were subjected to direct examinations by using wet touch of (KOH 10%) solution. At the same time the samples were grew on sabroud media to determine the type of fungal skin diseases of human. The direct examination shows positive results of 72 samples which represent 72% while for laboratory growth results, its shows 65 samples with positive results 65%. There are three types of Trichophyton fungus had been isolated which are T.rubrum 28 isolates, T.mentagrophytes 16 isolates and T.schoenleinii 4 isolates and there was one type of genus Microsporum which is M.canis 24 isolates. The results show that Tinea corporis infection is the common and its more among females than males where it is 26.39% and 13.89% respectively, then Tinea capitis which is 19.4% in males which is higher than in females which represents 13.89% while Tinea unguium was in females more than males which was in females 16.67% while in males 9.72%. The percentage of fungal skin infection was differ according to the location where the number of infections in the rural area for all types of Tinea were more than the number of infection in the urban area where the number of infected people with Tinea corporis was 18 which represent 25% while in the urban the number was 11 which represent 18.28% while the number of infected people with Tinea capitis in the rural area were 16 which represent 22.22% and the infected in the urban were 8 which represent 11.11%. While Tinea unguium the number of infected people in the rural 10 which represent 13.89% and in the urban 9 people which represent 12.5%. The diagnosis of isolated fungi depended on phenotype of fungal growth and microscopic examination, in addition to special tests for diagnosing skin fungal infections. Also the PCR was used for diagnosis and the work had been completed by using genotypic tree for fine diagnosis and detection the fungal species. The result were send to the genes bank site to be sure about the fungus type through comparison with the registered fungi in this site and by using MEGA6 program for genetic tree analysis of type (unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean). The results of analysis shows clear converge of local Trichophyton spp. Isolates with Trichophyton rubrum in comparison with other types that appears in the genetic tree analysis while Microsporium diagnosed through genetic tree analysis of type (up GMA tree) and the result of analysis shows clear converge of local Microsporium spp. Isolates with Microsporium canis compared with other types of genetic tree analysis. The effect of silver nanoparticles that is used against growth of T.rubrum, T.mentagrophytes and M.canis. The results show that all the concentrations used were effective in stopping of growth of T.mentagrophytes when deal with the standard measure when dealt with concentration of 4 mg/l the more effective in stopping of radiating growth of the fungus. Regarding the fungus T.rubrum the concentrations of 4 mg/l more effective in stopping of growth while there was no difference for 1mg/liter concentration. Regarding the fungus M.canis, the mentioned concentrations had large effect on fungal colonization growth compared with the standard and this fungus more than other fungi affected by nano silver ions

Abstract: This study was conducted in Biology Department - College of Science - University of Al - Qadisiya that included pot experiment from the period of 1/4 to 1/8/2013, to assess the effect of water stress, foliar fertilizer (Foltron) and organic fertilizer (Azomin) on growth of Adhatoda vasica (L.) Nees and Its Content of Some Active Ingredients. Laboratory experiments were also done from the period of 1/8 to 1/3/2014, to determine the activity of leaves and roots extracts that resulted from plants of pots treatments to inhibit growth of some bacteria genera causing Dental Caries i.e. Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus pneumonia.A pot experiment included seventy two transplants (age of one month and 8 cm height) that were transplanted in plastic pots (one transplant per pot) in 1/4/2013. Pots were filled with sandy soil and peatmose 2 : 1 v/v. Plants Irrigated with two levels 50 and 25% of field capacity. Foliar fertilizer was used at three concentrations of 0, 3 and 6 ml/L that sprayed twice on plant shoot till complete wetness during 15/4 and 1/6/2014. Organic fertilizer was also used with irrigation water at three concentrations of 0, 4 and 8 ml/L twice on 1/5 and 15/6/2014. The design of the experiment was Randomized Complete Blocks Design (RCBD) in a factorial arrangement (2×3×3) with four replications per each treatment. Revised Least Significant Difference (RLSD) was used to compare treatment means at probability 0.05 level when treatment effect was significant.Results of pots experiment were as follows : 1 - Increasing water stress level caused a significant decrease in the most characteristics of vegetative and root growth except for stem internode and root lengths, while increasing in concentration of foliar and organic fertilizer gave the opposite effect of water stress.2 - Water stress caused a significant decrease in leaves content of total chlorophyll and nutrient elements N, P, K, Mg and protein percentage, while foliar and organic fertilizer caused a significant increase on the above characteristics.3 - Water stress caused a significant increase in proline percentage and Vit.C. and Vasicine and Vasicinone alkaloids, while foliar and organic fertilizer caused a significant decrease in proline percentage and Vit.C. and a significant increase in Vasicine and Vasicinone alkaloids.4 - The treatment of plants that were subjected to the water stress via foliar or root fertilizing or both of them caused a significant increase for most of vegetative and root growth characteristics, total chlorophyll, nutrient elements, protein percentage and Vasicine and Vasicinone alkaloids.5 - The treatment of plants that were underwent to the water stress via foliar and root fertilizing caused a significant decrease in proline percentage, Vit.C. and stem internode and root lengths.6 - The interaction of the three studied factors gave a significant positive effect to rise alkaloids of plant.Laboratory experiments included picking fresh leaves and root of plants that dried aerial in a shade, and then extracted it via methanol alcoholic of 70%, it was detected for some chemical components of extract by using reagents. Bacterial genera were isolated from the surfaces of the teeth and cultured on the growth media, and it was diagnosed by the Vitek Compact 2 System Diagnosis. The activity test involved the impact of the alcohol extract for leaves and roots to the inhibition of bacterial growth by the agar well diffusion method on Muller - Hinton.The design of the experiment was Complete Randomized Design (CRD) in a factorial arrangement (18×3) with three replications per each treatment. Revised Least Significant Difference (RLSD) was used to compare treatment means at probability 0.01 level when treatment effect was significant.Results of laboratory experiment were as follow : 1 - Increasing extracts concentration caused a significant increase in growth inhibition of the studied bacterial genera.2 - plants extraction that of the combination of A2B3C3 included (25% water stress, 6 ml/L foliar fertilizer and 8 ml/L organic fertilizer) gave the highest activated inhibition for bacterial genera compared with plant other extraction for all tested bacterial genera.3 - The plants extracted that treated by combination A2B3C3 in concentration 150 mg/ml gave higher activated inhibition for Streptococcus pneumonia reached 25.307 ml compared with Amoxicillin that reached 36.167 ml, while the inhibited extracted root reached for the same treatment 16.060 ml (Table 37 and 38).4 - Plants leaf extract was the highest effective inhibition of bacterial compared to the roots extract.

Abstract: تناولت هذه الدراسة عددا من العضلات الهيكلية في نوعين من الطيور الطائرة (الحمام) وغير الطائرة (الدجاج). العدد الكلي للطيور المستعملة 30 طائرا, 15 من الدجاج و15 من الحمام تمت دراسة بعض الخصائص الفسلجية والنسيجية للالياف العضلية الحمر والبيض والوسطية وحساب | This study deals with a number of skeletal muscles in two types of birds ; flying (pigeon) and running (chicken) types. The total number of the studied birds was 30; 15 were chicken and 15 were pigeons. Some of the physiological and histological characteristics of the muscle fibers (red, white, and intermediate) , the percentage of fibers diameter in the studied muscles, and the change noted in the muscle weight with advancing age had been calculated. The species of the chicken in this study was Gallus domesticus , while the species of the pigeons was Columba livia domestica. The muscles that is used in the study were : pectoralis muscle, femortibialis, triceps, biceps brachii, extensor carpi radialis muscle, and gastrocnemius muscles in two age groups of birds; (3 - 6) months and (6 - 12) months in order to know the changes in the weights, numbers, diameters, and sizes of the muscle fibers that occur with advancing age. The aim of this study is to identify the three types of the muscle fibers their role in the muscle movement and the regions in which there is specific type rather than others. The results had shown that the skeletal muscles in birds consist of heterogenous mixture of the three types of muscle fibers (red, white, and intermediate) , and the white muscle fibers are the predominant type in the pectoralis muscle of both types of birds, and the size of white muscle fibers in the pectoralis muscle in the chickens in the first age group was 73.8%, and in the second age group was 82.9%. While in pigeons, the size of white muscle fibers was 75.5% in the first age group, and 75.4% in the second age group. In addition, the present study deals with the relationship between the muscles weights and the age of the bird in that the muscles show increased weight with advancing age in both types of birds and there were significant differences in muscles weight in both age groups (p?0.05), while the triceps muscle did not show significant difference regarding weight between the two age groups in the same type of birds. The results of the study also show the differences in the diameter of the muscle fibers, that is there was continuous increase in the diameters with advancing age and show significant differences (p?0.05) , but regarding pectoralis muscle there was no significant differences in diameters with advancing age in both types of birds. The results of the study also show that the pectoralis muscle was the largest muscle in the body of the bird, and the ratio of its weight to the total body weight was relatively large.

This study aimed to isolation and identification the species of Pseudomonas and metabolic efficiency test in the analysis of petroleum hydrocarbon compounds and measure the effectiveness of antagonism in resistant pathogenic fungi to tomato plant. Thirty four isolates were identified, the Pseudomonas spp. was the highest frequency with 22 isolates. These isolates distributed to 16 isolates of pseudomonas aeruginosa and 6 isolates of pseudomonas fluorescens. Also this study included isolation of two pathogenic fungi which were Alternaria alternate and Fusarium solani in tomato plant. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences at (p<0.05) between the bacterial isolates in their analysis of hydrocarbon compounds, when the optical density measurement as an indicator of the effectiveness of growth on hydrocarbon sources. All isolates showed different optical densities were highest isolation of pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from urinary tract infections as optical density amounting to 0.23nm. Also showed an increase in electrical conductivity values for all isolates within the incubation period, the highest value to the hospital (1) isolate with 12.8 mc/cm in the third week of the incubation, But decreased in the sixth week to 8.7 mc/cm and all isolates showed a good effectiveness of electrical conductivity in the third week and noted significant differences (p<0.05) in electrical conductivity values for isolates compared with control of 7.2 mc/cm. The results of the DNA electrophoresis of the all isolates contain the two genes (C23O and rhIB) which they code for the production of hydrocarbon - degrading enzymes. In Bio - antagonism experiments noted that all isolates were inhibitory to the growth of two pathogenic fungi and stimulating the growth of tomato plants in glass and field experiments through increase germination, vegetative ratio and root length and increased weights with significant difference at (p<0.05)with seed treatment with fungus only. The best isolates increased in germination were pseudomonas aeruginosa hospital isolate and pseudomonas fluorescens generating isolate which had stimulated germination rate to 76% with significant difference when compared with the control of Alternaria alternata and Fusarium solani which germination rate was 36 and 40 respectively. Pseudomonas aeruginosa which isolated from soil was more efficient in increasing the length of the stem, the stem height was 7.53 cm compared with the control treatment with F. solani, the stem height was 5.7 cm. Pseudomonas aeruginosa hospital which led to an increase in the length of the total root to 3.66 cm compared with the control treatment with F.solani at 1.53 cm. The increase in fresh and dry weights of Total vegetative reached 0.64 gm and 0.065 gm respectively when the treatment of seed contaminated with F.solani fungus and pseudomonas aeruginosa hospital isolate compared to the control which the weights were 0.11 g and 0.011 gm respectively. The highest increase in fresh and dry weights of total root of 0.057 gm and 0.0072 gm respectively when treated seeds contaminated with the F. solani with P. fluorescens hydrocarbon contaminated soil isolate compared with control that the fresh and dry weights was 0.032 g and 0.0017 g respectively. The highest value of stem length registered when treating seed with A. alternata which was 7.5 cm when treating seed contaminated with A. alternata by P. fluorescens isolated from soil contaminated with hydrocarbon compounds. The lowest value of stem length was 7.3 cm for the treatment of seeds contaminated with the A. alternata by P. aerugionsa isolated from the drainage water compared with control treatment (seeds contaminated with A. alternata) which stem length was 6.33cm. As for the fresh and dry weight for total vegetation was the highest value of 0.8 gm and 0.793 gm respectively when the treatment of seeds contaminated with the A. alternata P. aerugionsa isolated from urinary tract infections and the lowest value of fresh weight was 0.61gm for total vegetation when treated seeds contaminated with the A. alternata by P. aerugionsa isolated from soil non contaminated with hydrocarbon compounds and 0.069 gm when treated seeds contaminated with the A. alternata by P. aerugionsa which Isolated from drainage water compared with control treatment which were 0.15 gm and 0.0014 gm of fresh and dry weight for total vegetation, respectively. As for fresh and dry weight of total root were the highest value 0.071 gm and 0.008 gm respectively, when the treatment of seeds contaminated with the A. alternata by P. fluorescens isolated from soil contaminated with hydrocarbon compounds. while the lowest value were 0.058 gm and 0.0065 gm when treated seeds contaminated with the A. alternata by P. aerugionsa isolated from soil non contaminated with hydrocarbon compounds compared to control treatment (seeds contaminated with the A. alternata only)which the fresh and dry weight values for total root were 0.046 gm and 0.0018 gm respectively. When antagonism study in the glass field, the highest percentage of inhibition of the growth of the F. solani on PDA and cetramide agar were 42% and 61% respectively, when treated with P. fluorescens generator isolate. While the bacterial antagonism with A. alternata on PDA media, the highest percentage of inhibition 51% when treated with the transaction P. fluorescens generator isolate on PDA media. Generally, the treatment of pathogenic fungi with biological control bacteria had reduced the percentage of infection and increase the percentage of germination.

Abstract: To evaluate the anti - hyperglycaemic potent of thymoquinone from Nigella sativa seed in streptozotocin - induced diabetic male rats, the present study has been carried out at the College of Education, Al - Qadisiya University during the period extended from April, 15, 2012 to December, 15, 2012. mRNA expression level of Reg3a, InsI, InsII, PDX1, Pax6, NeuroD1, and MafA genes have been evaluated in pancreatic tissues as well. Sixty five adult male rats (aged 56 days and weighted 138±8.8g) have been used in the present study. Diabetes has been inducted in 52 male rats by injection of single dose of streptozotocin (60 mg/ kg, b.w., i.p.). Diabetes mellitus has been confirmed by blood glucose concentration (to be more than 200 mg/ dl). Intact and streptozotocin - induced diabetic male rats have been assigned to five equal groups (13 per each); Intact (C) and non treated diabetic (DM) rats have been injected with normal saline (100?l, sc) anddrenched with drinking water daily for 42 days. Thymoquinone treated diabetic rats (TQ50 and TQ100) have been injected with normal saline (100?l, sc) and drenched with thymoquinone suspention (50 and 100 mg/ kg, b.w., respectively) daily for 42 days. Insulin treated diabetic rats were injected with insulin (4 IU, sc) and drenched with drinking water daily for 42 days. Body weights were registered daily during the experiment. All overnight fasted animals were sacrificed after general anesthesia by combination of xylazine and ketamine (10 mg and 90 mg/kg, ip, respectively). Blood samples was collected from abdominal vein for determination of serum glucose and insulin concentrations. Samples from pancreatic tissues in all groups have been quickly removed, dipped in liquid nitrogen for RNA extraction and molecular study. Other pancreatic tissues were fixed in formalin forhistopathological and immunohistochemical study. The results demonstrated significant decrease in body weight gain of untreated diabetic (DM) and insulin treated diabetic (DMI) groups as compared with that of intact control (C) and thymoquinone treated diabetic (TQ50 and TQ100) groups, started from the fourth day of experiment, which showed insignificant differences when compared with each other. While the lowest body weight gain has been registered in DM group.Results of serum glucose concentrations referred to significant elevation in diabetic groups compared with intact control. In comparison between the diabetic groups, glucose concentration revealed significant decrease in thymoquinone and insulin treated rats (TQ50, TQ100, and DMI) compared with untreated diabetic rats (DMI). on the other hand, insulin treated males (DMI) and thymoquinone treated males (TQ50 and TQ100) recorded no significant difference in serum insulin concentration when compared witheach other but they were significantly lower than that of intact control male rats (C), but the average means of these four groups were significantly higher than that of non - treated diabetic male rats (DM).Quantification analysis results of gene expression, performed by real - time RT - PCR, revealed that treatment with thymoquinone caused significant increase of mRNA expression levels of Reg3a, InsI, InsII, PDX1, Pax6, NeuroD1 and MafA genes during the studied period. Histological findings of thymoquinone treated pancreases revealed normal cellularity of islets of Langerhans and normal exocrine tissue except few congestion in it, whereas those obtained from non treated diabetic rats showed complet impairment of some islands and highly destructed of others. Normal hepatic architecture with the appearance of radiating shape around the central vein, has been shown in the section obtained from thymoquinone treated diabetic rats except few congestion, obvious regeneration and mitotic division in the nuclei of hepatocytes. Sections obtained from non treated diabetic male rats showed sever congestion, large thrombi in the hepatic tissue, and loss of hepatic architecture with sever hemorrhage, degeneration in hepatocytes, and dilation of sinusoids. Section obtained from kidneys of thymoquinone treated diabetic rats reveales normal renal convoluted tubules with normal epithelium of the tubules and high cellularity of glomeruli. Whearas those obtained non treated diabetic rat revealed dilation of renal convoluted tubules with necrosis in the epithelium of the tubules and sever hemorrhage in the renal tissue. Immunohistochemical results revealed that male rats drenched with thymoquinone registered higher scores of positive cells and intensity of staining compared with other diabetic (DM and I) groups. Hisological sections obtained from pancreases of control male rats showed actively stained islets of Langerhan's by immunohistochemistry with actively stained populations of beta, alpha, and delta cells, whereas those obtained from pancreases of non treated diabetic male rats showed damage of most cell populations and negatively stained for the few remaining beta cells. on the other hand, section obtained from pancreases of diabetic male rats treated with thymoquinone showed actively stained islets of Langerhan's by immunohistochemistry with actively stained populations of beta, alpha, and delta cells. While those obtained from pancreases of diabetic male rats treated with insulin, in the same stages of experiment, showed negatively stained beta cells and other cells of islets of Langerhan's. Histopathological findingsrevealed moderate improvement of pancreatic changes shown in both exocrine and endocrine (Islands of Langerhan's) parts. It can be concluded that drenching of 50 or 100 mg/ kg, bw, of thymoquinone from Nigella sativa seed has potent hypoglycemic effect in experimentally - induced diabetic mature male rats. As well as its positive role in elevating the expression level of Reg3a, InsI, InsII, PDX1, Pax6, NeuroD1

Abstract: The present study has been carried out at the department of biology, College of Education, Al - Qadisiya University, Iraq, to investigate the immunological localization of transforming growth factors beta (inhibins and activins) subunits during immature and mature periods and its involvement in male reproductive physiology of rats.At pre - pubertal stage, five male rats of 25, 30, 35, 40, and 45 days old, and at post - pubertal stage, five male rats of 55, 60, 65, 70, and 75 days old have been used in the present study. Experimental animals have been anesthetized and blood samples were obtained from abdominal vein for assesment of activin - A, inhibin - B, FSH, LH, testosterone, and estrogen, testis volumes were measured for each age period. Testes, epididymis, prostate and seminal vesicle, were obtained for molecular and immunohistochemical studyto investigate the expression levels of Inha, Inhba, and Inhbb genes using qRT - PCR and immunohistochemical technique.The present study demonstrated gradual increase of testis volume throughout the male rat life in parallel with the increase of serum inhibin - B and testosterone concentrations. Serum activin - A concentration increased significantly at 30 and 40 day periods. Throughout the post - pubertal stage, activin - A concentration gradually decreased. Serum inhibin - B concentrations gradually decreased at the pre - pubertal stage. Post - pubertal stage registered gradual increase. At 25, 30, and 35 day periods, serum FSH level registered no significant changes, whereas 40 day period recorded significant increase then decreased at 45 day period. Throughout the post - pubertal period, the level of FSH concentrations continued in gradual decrease. At 25, 30, 35, and 40 day periods, serum LH and testosterone levels showed no significant differences, whereas 45 day period recorded significant increase. Postpubertal period showed gradual significant increase. Serum estradiol concentration decreased gradually at the pre - pubertal stage and continued in decrement at the post - pubertal stage.The expression level of Inha gene in testis decreased as the age progress until 40 day period, and then slightly increased at 45 day period. At 55 day period, the expression significantly increased. At 60 and 65 periods, the levels recorded no increase, but 70 and 75 day periods recorded significant increase. The expression level of Inhba gene increased significantly as the age progress at the pre - pubertal stage, where the highest level was recorded at 45 day. At 55, 60, and 65 day periods, the highest expression level has been recorded, thenafter, the levels decreased at 70 and 75 day periods. The expression level of Inhbb gene increased significantly at 30, 35, 40, and 45 day periods of the pre - pubertal stage. At 55 and 60 day periods, no significant difference was recorded compared with 45 day period. At 65 day period, the highest level was recorded, thenafter, the levels decreased at 70 and 75 day periods. The expression level of Inha gene in epididymis recorded no significant difference at all periods of the pre - pubertal stage, but the post - pubertal stage showed gradual significant increase as age progressed. The expression level of Inhba gene recorded no difference at 25, 30, 35, and 40 day periods, but it was significantly higher at 45 day period. The levels at 55, 60, and 65 day periods recorded no significant difference when compared with each other or with 45 day period. Significant increase has been recorded at 70 and 75 day periods. The expression level of Inhbb gene increased significantly at 30 and 35 but it decreased at 40 day period, then it showed further increase at 45 day period. At 55, 60, 65, and 70 day periods, also increased but the highest expression level was recorded at 75 day period.The expression level of Inha, Inhba, Inhbb genes in prostate recorded no significant difference at all periods of the pre - pubertal stage, but the postpubertal stage showed significant increase at all periods.The expression level of Inha and Inhba genes in seminal vesicle recorded no significant difference at 25, 30, 35, and 40 day periods and significant increase at 45 day period. The 55, 60, and 65 day periods recorded no significant difference when compared with each other but significant increase has been recorded at 70 and 75 day periods. The expression level of Inhbb gene recorded no significant difference at 25, 30, and 35 day periods, but it increased as the age progressed, whereas the levels showed no significant difference at all periods of the post - pubertal stage, but they were significantly higher than that recorded at the pre - pubertal stage. The results of immunohistochemical study demonstrated positive immunostaining for inhibin - ? subunit in Sertoli cells and primary spermatocyte and no staining in Leydig cells of pre - pubertal rat testis, whereas post - pubertal testis showed positive immunostaining in Sertoli cells, Leydig cells and primary spermatocyte at 55 day period and positive immunostaining in Sertoli cells, Leydig cells, and spermatogonia at 60 day period. There was positive immunostaining in Sertoli cells, Leydig cells, spermatogonia, primary spermatocyte and spermatid at 65, 70, and 75 day periods. At 25 and 30 day periods of pre - pubertal stage, rat epididymis showed moderate positive immunostaining in epithelial cells, but strong positive staining in epithelial cells has been shown at 35, 40, and 45 day periods and at all periods of the post - pubertal stages. The result expressed positive immunostaining in the epithelial cells of the pre - pubertal rat prostate and strong positive immunostaining at the post - pubertal stage. on the otherhand both, pre - pubertal and post - pubertal rat seminal vesicle showed strong positive immunostaining in epithelial cells. Weak positive immunostaining of Inhba has been observed in the primary spermatocyte and no staining in Sertoli cells and Leydig cells in the prepubertal rat testis and at 55 day period of the post - pubertal rat testis, and no staining in Sertoli cells, Leydig cells and spermatogenic cells at 60, 65, 70, and 75 day periods. Moreover there was positive immunostaining in epithelial cells in both the pre - pubertal and post - pubertal rat epididymis and prostate. In the post - pubertal stage, rat prostate showed strong positive mmunostaining in epithelial cells. No staining was observed in epithelial cells in both the prepubertal and post - pubertal rat seminal vesicle. The pre - pubertal rat testis showed strong immunostaining for Inhbb subunit in Sertoli cells, Leydig cells and primary spermatocyte, in adittion to spermatid in post - pubertal rat testis. Strong positive immunostaining in epithelial cells of the pre - pubertal rat epididymis at 25 and 30 day periods was expressed, but moderate positive immunostaining in epithelial cells of prepubertalrat epididymis was observed at 35, 40, and 45 day periods and postpubertal rat epididymis. However Inhbb subunit in both pre - pubertal and postpubertal rat prostate showed positive immunostaining in epithelial cells. There was positive immunostaining in epithelial cells in the pre - pubertal rat seminal vesicle at 25, 30, 35, and 40 day periods, and strong positive immunostaining at 45 day period and post - pubertal stage.It could be concluded that serum inhibin - B has positive correlation with testis volum and testosterone concentration at pre - and post - pubertal stages, and positive correlation with FSH and LH concentrations at pre - pubertal but negative partial correlation at post - pubertal stage. There was relationship between serum inhibin and activin concentration and fold changes of Inha, Inhba, and Inhbb genes in testis, epididymis, prostate, and seminal vesicle tissues at all periods of the study. Positive immunostaining for inhibin ? - and ?B - subunits, but not for ?A - subunit has been shown in testis cells and epithelial cells of seminal vesicle, positive immunostaining for inhibin ?, ?A, and ?B subunits in the epididymis and prostate

Thirty animals of adult local breed sheep weighing (27.4±2.46) kg were used in 6 different anesthetic protocols. The animals were divided into six groups (5 animals of each). The first three groups (without using of xylazine) were giving the drugs by IV injection in the jugular vein : G1 giving K4 and P10 mg/kg IV, G2 giving K4T2 mg/kg IV, and G3 giving K4 T2 P10 IV. In the other groups (G4, G5, and G6) xylazine were adding to the anesthetic protocol. G4 giving K4 T2 P10 X0.05 by IV route. G5 was giving K10 T2 P10 X1 mg/kg by IM route and G6 giving K20 T4 P10 X2.5 mg/kg by IM route. The HR, RR, RT, muscle relaxation, limb, and flank analgesia, and rumen movement were taken before administration of anesthesia (time 0) and consider as the control reading. Then taken at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45 and 60 minutes or till the end of anesthesia. In the IV groups (without using of xylazine), (G1, G2, and G3). The induction time was 53.2, 60, and 68 seconds, the surgical anesthesia was 2.8, 5, and 5 minutes, and the total recovery time was 4.8, 5.4, and 3 minutes in G1, G2 and G3 respectivily. The RR, and HR were increased, and the RT was decreased. The muscle relaxation was mild, and the analgesia was moderate. In G4 after adding of xylazine and giving the anesthetic protocol by IV route, the induction time, the surgical anesthesia, and the total recovery time were become 50.6 seconds, 23 minutes, and 9.4 minutes respectively. The HR, RR, and RT were increased, the muscle relaxation, and analgesia were moderate. In G5 after increased the dose of ketamine and xylazine and giving the anesthetic protocol by IM route, the induction time, the surgical anesthesia, and the total recovery time were 5, 36, and 5.6 minutes respectively. The HR and RR were decreased, and the RT was increased. The muscle relaxation was deep for 10 minutes, and the analgesia was moderate for 10 minutes also. In G6 after doubling the ketamine, tramadol, and xylazine doses, and giving the anesthetic protocol by IM route. The induction time, the surgical anesthesia, and the total recovery time were 3.6, 73.4, and 7 minutes respectively. The HR started stable, then after 15 minutes decreased sharply, The RR was irregular, with apnea, the RT was increased, the muscle relaxation was deep for 35 minutes, and the analgesia was deep for 45 minutes. In conclusion the addition of tramadol and paracetamol to the ketamine anesthesia of sheep in low doses, improve the induction and recovery time of anesthesia, without increase the duration and depth of anesthesia. Adding of xylazine to the anesthetic protocols increase the duration and depth of anesthesia. The protocol of K10 T2 P10 X1 by the IM route is the best protocol dose among the six protocols used in this study.

Significant increase (P<0.05) of total WBC count and percentage of neutrophil, lymphocytes, eosinophil, and AST, ALT, IgM and IgA concentrations and no significant difference of IgG concentration. Significant decrease (P<0.05) of phagocytic activity.Gross pathological changes represented by the presence of necrotic and hemorrhagic foci, clotting as well as congestion and enlargement of liver, kidneys, lungs, spleen and heart. The histopathological appearance revealed by vaculation, necrotic and degenerative changes of hepatocytes in live, the spleen showed many changes led to imbalance between white and red bulb spaces, the heart showed lack of cross striation, edema between cardiac muscle fibers, while lungs showed an emphysema and sever hyperplasia in the bronchial epithelium. From other hand, the results showed that receiving vitamin E and selenium had an efficient effect for the improving the toxic effects of endotoxin and relieving its toxicological changes in the animal organs as compare with group that injected with endotoxin only, this group shows slight clinical signs and increase of appetite and drinking of water, improvement of blood parameters and reduce in the concentration of ALT and AST in blood serum, also there was increase in the phagocytic activity and increase in the levels of IgM, IgA and IgG. The gross pathological cganges less sever as compare with T1. It can be concluded that exposure to Salmonella typhimurium endotoxin leads to many distinct toxic effects on different organs and systems of the body which may results in many physiological disturbances. This study, also, proved that vitamin E and selenium have an important efficient role in improving the toxicological changes resulted from endotoxin poisoning.

The animals were randomly distributed into four equal groups , ( 10 rats per each group / cage) as follow : - Control group : The rats were given only basal diet and deionized drinking water - - First treatment group ( T1) : The rats were given basal diet and deionized drinking water that contain 1000 ppm lead acetate for 30 days. - Second treatment group ( T2 ) : The rats were administrated basal diet and deionized drinking water that contained 1000 ppm of lead acetate and received orally ( by gavag ) fermented mare's milk at a dose ( 10ml / kg b.w / day ) for 30 days. - Third treatment group (T3) : The rats were given basal diet and deionized drinking water that contained 1000 ppm of lead acetate and received orally ( by gavag ) EDTA at a dose ( 50 mg/ kg b.w / day ) for 30 days. At the end of the experiment all the animals were fasted for ( 12 hours ) and then killed animals from each treatment group blood samples were collected from the heart to measures some blood parameters such RBC , Hb and PCV and biochemical parameters such as liver function parameters ( total protein and activity of some enzymes such as ALT , AST , ALP and LDH ) , kidney function parameters such as Urea and Creatinine concentration and oxidative stress parameters such as GSH , SOD , MDA ). In addition to that study the histopathological changes of liver and kidney tissues were studied The results of the present study can be summarized as follow : - 1 - Blood parameters : The results of the statistical analysis showed that there was a significant ( p < 0.05 ) decrease in the mean values of RBC , Hb , and PCV in a group treated with lead acetate only ( T1 ) as compared to other experimental groups. while groups treated with EDTA and fermented mares milk showed a significant ( p < 0.05 ) improvement in blood parameters. 2 - Biochemical parameters : A - Liver function parameters : The result revealed that there was a significant ( p < 0.05 )effect of lead acetate on level of total protein where caused a decrease in total protein concentration and increase the in activity of ALT , AST , ALP , and LDH as compared to other experimental groups. Yet treatment with fermented mare's milk ( T2 ) resulted in an increase in the total protein concentration and a decrease in the activity ALT , AST , ALP AND LDH. Also treatment with EDTA ( T3 ) caused a similar results to ( T2 ). B - Kidney function parameters : The results obtained in this study demonstrated that a significant ( p < 0.05 ) increase in the level of urea and creatinine in a group of animals treated with lead acetate only ( T1) , while using fermented mare's milk ( T2 ) and also EDTA contributed reduction in the level of urea and creatinine 3 - Oxidative stress parameters : The results of the present study showed that there was a significant ( p < 0.05) decrease in the concentration of GSH and SOD a significant ( p < 0.05 ) increase in MDA concentration in animals that administrated lead acetate only ( T1) while administration fermented mare's milk and EDTA resulted in significant ( p < 0.05 ) increase in the concentration of GSH and SOD while a significant ( p < 0.05 ) reduction in MDA concentration. The values becomes close to the concentration of the control group. 4 - Histopathological changes : The results of Histopathological examination for tissues of liver and kidney of rats given lead acetate alone ( T1 ) showed that there was a clear Histopathological changes presented in degeneration of hepatocytes and congestion in central vein which associated with hemorrhage in liver and kidney tissues of animals administrated fermented mare's milk showed normal and free from congestion.

Abstract: اجريت هذه الدراسة في محافظة القادسية للمدة من كانون الاول 2012 لغاية اذار 2013 شملت خمسة مناطق مختلفة من محافظة القادسية هي كل من (مركز الديوانية وناحية السنية وناحية الشافعية وناحية الدغارة وقضاء الحمزة) لغرض تحديد مدى تلوث الحليب الخام ببعض المعادن | This study was carried out in AL - Qadissiyah province during the period from December 2012 to March 2013 involved five different regions such as (Diwaniyah city center , Saniyah district , shafeia district , Dagharah district and AL - Hamza district) to determine the level of contamination of raw milk with the toxic heavy metals such as Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb), Nikel (Ni), Arsenic (As) and Mercury (Hg). A total of 150 raw milk samples were collected from 150 animals belonged to three species involved (50) cows , (50) sheep and (50) goats selected randomly, ten animals per each species per regions. The results of a statistical analysis of the experimental data showed that : Chemical components of milk 1.There are a significant differences (p <0.05) in all contents of milk among different species of studied animals (cows , sheep and goats). Except fat content for cows and goats milk were not significant different. Sheep's milk had significantly (p<0.05) of (protein, fat, solids not - fat and ash) in comparison to cow's and goat's milk (7.535, 6.617, 12.026 and 0.646) % respectively. Cow's milk had significantly (p<0.05) higher lactose content (4.757%) than both sheep's and goat's milk. components of milk 2. PhysicalThe results revealed that there were significant differences (p <0.05) in all physical characteristics of milk among different species of animals involved in this study (cows, sheep and goats). Sheep milk had significantly (p<0.05) (Titratable Acidity 0.182% and conductivity 3.214 mS/cm) than both cow's and goat's milk , goat's milk contains the highest specific gravity 1.057mg /100 ml while the pH values of cow's , sheep's and goat's milk were similar. Heavy metals in milk - Effect of Species The results revealed that significant differences (P<0.05) among the mean values of heavy metal concentrations included in the study (Cadmium (Cd) , lead (Pb), Nikel (Ni), Arsenic (As) and Mercury (Hg) in milk of different species (cows , sheep and goats). Sheep's milk had significantly levels of such heavy metals (0.251, 0.801, 0.563, 0.283 and 0.124) mg/ l respectively than both cow's and goat's milk while cow's milk had significantly the lower levels (0.098, 0.311, 0.221, and 0.122 , 0.037) mg / l respectively. - Effect of regions : The results showed that significant differences (P<0.05) in the means values of heavy metal concentrations in milk among different regions. The Highest levels of heavy metals were observed in AL - Hamza district (0.184, 0.624, 0.494, 0.246 and 0.119) mg / l respectively and the lowest levels of heavy metals were noticed in Dagharah (0.144 , 0.507, 0.382 , 0.167 and 0.061) mg / l respectively. - Effect of month : The results of the statistical analysis showed that there were non - significant differences in the average concentrations of cadmium, lead and arsenic among months while a significant differences (P <0.05) were observed in the level of nikel between march and other studied months [(0.494) mg / l in march and (0.397, 0.418 and 0.415) mg / l for December, January and February respectively]. Also the results showed that there were a significant differences (P<0.05) in the levels of mercury between march and each of January and February [(0.106) mg / l in march and (0.081 and 0.083) mg / l in January and February respectively]. From the results obtained in the present study,it can be concluded that : 1 - Heavy metals like cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), Nikel (Ni), Arsenic (As and Mercury (Hg) which distributed among different sites were exceed the maximum acceptable limits set by WHO and EPA. 2 - High concentration of heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Ni, As and Hg) in city center site may be due to the industrial activities. 3 - High concentration of heavy metals in the other sites may be due to application of waste water for agriculture purposes (irrigation) which pollute the soil and also be allowing toxic metals to enter in to the food chain posing a serious health hazard.
