Molecular Detection and Antiserum Preparation of Begomoviruses Infecting Zucchini Squash in Iraq
...Show More Authors
Abstract<p>Begomoviruses infecting zucchini squash were investigated. Leaf samples were collected from zucchini squash growing areas in Baghdad (Jhadryaa and Yusufiyah), Babylon (Jibela and Mahmudiyah) and Diyala (Khan Bani Saad) Provinces. Samples were screened for the presence of begomoviruses using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Deng genus specific primers. Sixteen out of 40 samples were begomovirus positive. Sequence analysis confirmed the detection of Tomato leaf curl Palampur virus (TLCPALV) <italic>Begomovirus solanumpalampurense</italic>, Squash leaf curl virus (SLCuV) <italic>B. cucurbitapeponis</italic> and Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) <italic>B. coheni</italic> in zucchini squash and <italic>Datura stramonium</italic> samples. Co-infections of <italic>B. solanumpalampurense</italic>, and <italic>B. cucurbitapeponis</italic>, <italic>B. solanumpalampurense</italic> and <italic>B. coheni</italic> were detected in most samples suggesting begomovirus mixed infections are common in the investigated zucchini squash fields. <italic>Datura stramonium</italic> can be an alternatives host to <italic>B. solanumpalampurense</italic> and <italic>B. coheni</italic>. Total protein extracted from begomovirus infected samples were injected into lab rats to prepare begomovirus specific antibodies. The resultant polyclonal antibodies were labeled using horseradish peroxidase and enzyme linked immune assay (ELISA) was performed. Antibodies prepared could detect begomovirus in infected samples scoring 1.247 highest absorbance value at 405 nm compared to 1.198 of slandered TYLCV antigen. Proteins extracted from begomovirus co-infected tissues can be used to immunize rats for the production of beganovirus specific polyclonal antibodies.</p>

A Novel Anomaly Intrusion Detection Method based on RNA Encoding and ResNet50 Model
...Show More Authors

Cybersecurity refers to the actions that are used by people and companies to protect themselves and their information from cyber threats. Different security methods have been proposed for detecting network abnormal behavior, but some effective attacks are still a major concern in the computer community. Many security gaps, like Denial of Service, spam, phishing, and other types of attacks, are reported daily, and the attack numbers are growing. Intrusion detection is a security protection method that is used to detect and report any abnormal traffic automatically that may affect network security, such as internal attacks, external attacks, and maloperations. This paper proposed an anomaly intrusion detection system method based on a

Improved DDoS Detection Utilizing Deep Neural Networks and Feedforward Neural Networks as Autoencoder
...Show More Authors

Software-defined networking (SDN) is an innovative network paradigm, offering substantial control of network operation through a network’s architecture. SDN is an ideal platform for implementing projects involving distributed applications, security solutions, and decentralized network administration in a multitenant data center environment due to its programmability. As its usage rapidly expands, network security threats are becoming more frequent, leading SDN security to be of significant concern. Machine-learning (ML) techniques for intrusion detection of DDoS attacks in SDN networks utilize standard datasets and fail to cover all classification aspects, resulting in under-coverage of attack diversity. This paper proposes a hybr

Herbal Medicine in Iraq Advantage and Disadvantage: A Scientific Review
...Show More Authors

The study evaluated the recovery performance of any home herbs group as first aid in some emergency cases. The study involved 10 items of herbs (chamomile, black pepper, cloves, cinnamon, and anise) which used in acute cases such as cold, colic, inflammation of the intestine and tonsillitis, and (hibiscus, catnip, dried lime, cress seed, and ginger) were used for chronic cases such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and arthritis. The results showed the herbs had healing power and efficiency in the primary remedy for the above-mentioned diseases. The side effects, the contradictions, and the overdoses of these substances were discussed. It was concluded that home herbs could be used for treatment in emergency cases until moder

Traumatic Symptoms and Psychological Reactions Associated with Earthquakes in Iraq
...Show More Authors

The study aims to identify the Traumatic Symptoms (physiological, emotional, and cognitive) of earthquakes among the targeted sample; it also aims to identify the significant differences between psychological, emotional, and cognitive traumatic symptoms of earthquakes according to the gender and age of participants. The study additionally seeks to identify thepsychological positive-negative reactions associated with earthquakes according to gender and age of the participants. To measure the traumatic symptoms of earthquakes, a 4-point Likert scale questionnaire with (20) items (questions) accompanied with a 4-point Likert scale questionnaire with (18) items (questions) were used to measure the Psychological positive-n

Development of two-step noncatalytic esterification of waste cooking oil for biodiesel preparation
...Show More Authors

An innovative two-step noncatalytic esterifcation technique was proposed to synthesize alkyl esters from free fatty acids simulated in waste cooking oil, as a pretreatment process for biodiesel production, without adding any catalyst under normal conditions of pressure and temperature. The efect of methanol:oil molar ratio, reaction time, mixing rate, and reaction temperature were investigated. The results confrmed that the conversion of the reaction was increased when increasing the methanol molar ratio and decreased in prolonged reaction temperature. High conversion (94.545%) was successfully achieved at optimized conditions of 115:1, 65:1 methanol:oil molar ratio in the frst step and second step, respectively, other conditions i

Study the Effect of Formulation Variables on Preparation of Nisoldipine Loaded Nano Bilosomes
...Show More Authors

Nisoldipine (NSD) is a dihydropyridine class of calcium channel blockers used for hypertension treatment, it belongs to class II BCS (low solubility with high permeability), its absolute bioavailability is only 5% due to presystemic metabolism in the gut wall. It is also a substrate for a CYP3A and P-gp. Bilosomes are lipid bilayer vesicles incorporating bile salts in their walls to prevent degredation by GIT bile salts. The aim of this study is to prepare nisoldipine bilosomes as vesicular carrier and assess the effect of different formulation variables such as type of surfactant, amount of cholesterol, surfactant and sonication time on particle size, entrapment efficiency and poly dispersity index of the prepared bilos
