Imidacloprid (1-[(6-chloro-3-pyridinyl) methyl]-N-nitro-2-imidazolidinimine), is a recent systemic and contact insecticide with high activity against a wide range of pests. Continuous dispersion of this pesticide in the environment and its stability in soil results in environmental pollution which demands remediation. Used in this research Rhizobium pusense strain IHB 1 (OP218458.1) and Psychrobacter celer strain IHB2(OP672320.1). which were previously isolated from botanical fields soil of greenhouses which has been using imidacloprid pesticides for many years to determine optimum condition and degradation ability for imidacloprid by tested in minimal salt medium (MSM) for a duration of 21 days. The temperature, pH number, and concentration of the pesticide were determined for the growth of bacteria. The best growth of Psychrobacter celer strain IHB2(OP672320.1) was at 28°C, pH 6, and pesticide concentration 50ppm, while Rhizobium pusense strain IHB1 (OP218458.1) had the best growth at 24°C, pH 7, and pesticide concentration 75ppm.Levels of imidacloprid in MSM medium were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Rhizobium pusense strain IHB 1 (OP218458.1) was able to degrade 50.2% and Psychrobacter celer strain IHB2(OP672320.1) was able to degrade 59.01% of the initial amount of imidacloprid at the concentration of 25 mg /L in MSM media. All bacteria introduced in this study were among the first reports of imidacloprid degrading isolates in MSM-limited media from greenhouse soil. Therefore, the results of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of using soil bacteria for microbial degradation of imidacloprid. These findings suggest that these strains may be promising candidates for bioremediation of imidacloprid-contaminated soils.

This paper deals with an analytical study of the flow of an incompressible generalized Burgers’ fluid (GBF) in an annular pipe. We discussed in this problem the flow induced by an impulsive pressure gradient and compare the results with flow due to a constant pressure gradient. Analytic solutions for velocity is earned by using discrete Laplace transform (DLT) of the sequential fractional derivatives (FD) and finite Hankel transform (FHT). The influences of different parameters are analyzed on a velocity distribution characteristics and a comparison between two cases is also presented, and discussed in details. Eventually, the figures are plotted to exhibit these effects.
Abstract: Iatrogenic furcal root perforations are serious complications during dental treatment. This study was aimed to compare the sealing ability of new bioceramic root repair material TotalFill® with the other perforation repair materials (GIC, MTA and Biodentine) using a dye- extraction method.Materials and Methods: Forty extracted, human mandibular molars with non-fused well developed root were collected. Artificial perforations were made from the external surface of the teeth. Then the teeth were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups (n= 10) according to the type of repair material used in this study; Medifil glass ionomercement, TotalFill® bioceramic root repair material, BiodentineTM and MTA Plus. The specimens were then im

The protection of D- fructose using benzoyl chloride was synthesized, followed by nucleophilic addition/elimination between benzotria- zole and chloroacetyl chloride to give 1-(1- chloroacetyl)- 1H-benzotriazole. The next step was condensation reaction of protected fructose and 1-(1-chloroacetyl)-1H- benzotriazole producing a new nucleoside analogue. The novel nucleoside analogues underwent a second conden- sation reaction with different aromatic and aliphatic amines to provide new Schiff b

This study is concerned with the comparison of the results of some tests of passing and dribbling of the basketball of tow different years between teams of chosen young players in Baghdad. Calculative methods were used namely (Arithmetic mean, Value digression and T.test for incompatible specimens). After careful calculative treatments, it has been that there were abstract or no abstract differences in the find results of chestpass, highdribble and cross-over dribble. The clubs were: (Al-Khark, Air defence, Police and Al-Adamiyah) each one separate from the other for the year (2000-2001). After all that many findings were reached such as the lack of objective valuation (periodical tests) between one sport season and the other. In the light
