CUT-OFF VALUES OF BLACKCURRANT, LONDON PLANE AND PINE BUDS ON VANCOMYCIN RESISTANT ENTEROCOCCI ISOLATED FROM MASTITIC MILK IN BAGHDAD
...Show More Authors

Generation of new clones of multidrug resistant infectious foci of environmental, zoonotic and reverse zoonotic Enterococcus faecalis & faecium strains from cases of mastitis in cows privileged in Baghdad ecosystem reveal unsafe tricks. Medically important plants Blackcurrant, London Plane and Pine Buds are widely used for resolving these public health threats and hazards as powerful antimicrobial preparations. Totally sixty pooled milk samples were collected from apparently healthy (30 units) and infected (30 units) Cows from different regions of Abu-Ghraib during March until July (2019). Integrated units were checked by California mastitis test and a designed scheme was dependent for recovery of pathogenic Enterococci. Gram staining and catalase was proceeds. VITEK 2 (bioMérieux) technology ribbon biochemical identification system was used to segregate faecalis strain from faecium one. Group D Enterococci were confirmed by Lancefield’s serological grouping. Biofilm-formation assay was followed as an important biomarker clue for antibiotics resistance barriers. Modified Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion assay using Muller-Hinton agar was dependent for checking susceptibility of recovered strains to selected antibiotics Penicillin, Methicillin, Vancomycin, Amikacin & Ciprofloxacin. Watery & alcoholic extracts of selected plants were prepared according to recommendations of Codex international standards of Association of Official Agricultural Chemists (AOAC) & modified disc inhibition assay with determination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC titer) & minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC titer) were proceeds. Chi-square analysis via SPSS software was dependent. Qualified data descriptions regarding recovery of seventeen (28.33%) strains out of sixty samples in which, ten (16.66%) strains were recovered from mastitic milk units & seven (11.66%) strains were recovered from apparently abnormal milk units. Ten (16.66%) strains were confirmed as E. faecalis: Seven (11.66%) clones from mastitic milk units versus three (5%) clones from apparently abnormal milk units. Seven (11.66%) strains were confirmed as E. faecium: Five (8.33%) clones from mastitic milk units versus two (3.33%) clone from apparently abnormal milk units. All recovered strains were Gram-positive purple beaded cocci, Catalase negative, Lancefield group D & biofilm-producing. All strains were very resistant to all selected antibiotics. Diverse efficacy index was present among selected plants extracts in which, active ingredients index revealed powerful inhibitory level & titer for London Plane followed by Pine Buds then Blackcurrant against these powerful multidrug resistant recovered clones. In conclusion, frequency & distribution of pathogenic multidrug resistant foodborne Enterococci in our ecosystem represent privileged hazard chain of contamination that can be reduced or overcome by natural antimicrobial replacements like these extracts.

Studying the Effect of Aqueous Extract from Curcuma Longa on Some Parameters of Cytogenetic, Immunity and Fertility in Female Mice
...Show More Authors

The research work was conducted to investigate the effect of oral administration of aqueous extract of turmeric at doses of (5, 10) mg/kg body weight for two weeks daily by determining the genotoxic effect (mitotic index), evaluation of immunological effect (IgG, IgM, IgA, C3, C4) and measuring fertility hormones (follicles stimulation hormone/FSH, lutenising hormone/LH) levels with histological examinations of female albino swiss mice ovaries in comparison with control (normal saline). A clear effect in increasing mitotic activity was reveled for both doses in comparison with control. Results also showed a significant increase in the value of all immunological parameters at both doses, in comparison with control. Also, obvious raise was se

...Show More Authors

The best optimum temperature for the isolate was 30○C while the pH for the maximum mineral removal was 6. The best primary mineral removal was 100mg/L, while the maximum removal for all minerals was obtained after 8 hrs, and the maximum removal efficiency was obtained after 24 hrs. The results have proved that the best aeration for maximum removal was obtained at rotation speed of 150 rpm/ minute. Inoculums of 5ml/ 100ml which contained 106 cell/ ml showed maximum removal for the isolate.

EFFECT OF LAND DEGRADATION DEGREE ON THE LAND COVER TYPE USING GIS TECHNOLOGY IN THE WEST OF BAGHDAD/IRAQ
...Show More Authors

In this study is the phenomenon of desertification risk assessment in the Abu Ghraib area west of Baghdad/Iraq, which has an area of about (384.168 km 2), that the annual mean temperature is more than (22 C). Rainfall was low, ranging from the (200 mm) per year for Iraq and (2.82) mm per year of the study area* temperature is high and evaporation is also high (mm 7.73) per year*, so the climate in general of the dry type and the system of soil moisture is the kind of Aridic (Torric). To this study was to identify three indicators to monitor for the period from 2001-2005 using GIS and these indicators are (soil, groundwater and the nature of land use), using ArcGIS 9.1. The results showed that the risk of desertification was part of the leve
