The term "nano gold," also known as "gold nanoparticles," is commonly used. These particles are extremely small, with a diameter of less than 100 nm, which is only a fraction of the width of a human hair. Due to their tiny size, nano gold particles are often found in a colloidal solution, where they are suspended in a liquid stabilizer. This colloidal gold is essentially another name for nano gold. The main method for producing gold nanoparticles in a colloidal solution is the citrate synthesis technique, which involves combining different solutions to precipitate the gold nanoparticles. In biological systems, copper complexes play a significant role at the active sites of many metalloproteins. These complexes have potential applications in various catalytic processes that occur in living organisms, such as electron transfer reactions and the activation of specific antitumor substances. These processes are relevant in the fields of medicinal chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry. The interaction of copper chelates with biological systems and their noteworthy activities against neoplastic, bacterial, fungal, and cancerous cells are also important. Many copper (II) N, S, O / N, N-donor chelators function as effective anticancer agents due to their ability to bind with DNA base pairs. Using hydrophilic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as carriers for copper complexes is a novel and purposeful strategy that Could raise these compounds' stability and solubility in H2O aqueous., thus enhancing their bioavailability. The regulated release of Cu-complexes made possible by this method also creates the possibility for fruitful in vivo and in vitro tests. The definition, significance, and numerous applications of copper complexes in connection to nanogold are presented in this review study

The inflammatory response is a crucial aspect of the tissues’ responses to deleterious inflammogens. This complex response involves leukocytes cells such as macrophages, neutrophils, and lymphocytes, also known as inflammatory cells. In response to the inflammatory process, these cells release specialized substances which include vasoactive amines and peptides, eicosanoids, proinflammatory cytokines, and acute-phase proteins, which mediate the inflammatory process by preventing further tissue damage and ultimately resulting in healing and restoration of tissue function. This review discusses the role of the inflammatory cells as well as their by-products in the mediation of inflammatory process. A brief insight into the role of natural an

This investigation integrates experimental and numerical approaches to study a novel solar air heater aimed at achieving an efficient design for a solar collector suitable for drying applications under the meteorological conditions of Iraq. The importance of this investigation stems from the lack of optimal exploitation of solar energy reaching the solar collector, primarily attributable to elevated thermal losses despite numerous designs employed in such solar systems. Consequently, enhancing the thermal performance of solar collectors, particularly those employed in crop drying applications, stands as a crucial focal point for researchers within this domain. Two identical double-pass solar air heaters were designed and constructed for
