Anti-bacterial Properties of Melatonin against Mycobacterium Tuberculosis in Vitro
...Show More Authors

         57 isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis were identified; they were isolated from different clinical sources which included sputum, bronchial wash, abscess, pleural fluid, gastric fluid, eye fluid, and CSF, also urine and ear swab. This investigation was carried out on 198 patient attended National Reference Laboratory for T.B during September 2009. Also the study declared that the ratio of separation of this bacterium from male was (67.6%) and it’s higher than the ratio of separation this bacterium from females which was (32.3%). The susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to melatonin was evaluated. Many concentrations of melatonin were prepared to investigate it as antibacterial drug against multidrug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis. Suspension bacteria (10-1, 10-3 and 10-5) were cultured on Lowenstein-Jensen media (LJ) contains melatonin, while control media without this drug. Six isolates were chosen according to their susceptibility patterns; they were resisting to Rifampicin, Streptomycin, Isonicotinic –hydrazide and sensitive to Ethambutol. In conclusion, these in vitro studies clearly demonstrate anti-bacterial effects of melatonin. Among possible mechanisms, it is concluded that melatonin showed antibacterial effects against multidrug resistant T.B by reducing intracellular substrates. Identifying the mode of action could be of great help in developing and researching new anti-bacterial drugs.

Key words: Antibacterial, Melatonin, Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Evaluation of Andrews' six keys of normal occlusion in a sample of Iraqi adults in Baghdad city
...Show More Authors

Background: The Andrews’ six keys of normal occlusion contribute individually and collectively to the total scheme of occlusion and, therefore, are viewed as essential to successful orthodontic treatment. The present research aims to evaluate the presence of the parameters of the Andrews’ Six Keys of normal occlusion in a sample of 100 Iraqi adults with complete permanent dentition and clinically acceptable normal occlusion (Angle’s Class I) in Baghdad city. Their age range 18-25 years (60 males and 40 females). Materials and methods: Each patient was subjected to clinical examination and then study cast models were made, with their occlusal records. The measuring tools that have been used involved: Three-dimensional goniometer to me

Role of Spraying Potassium Fertilizer Types in Improving of flag Leaf Contribution in Grain Yield of Wheat
...Show More Authors

A field experiment was carried out during winter season of 2019 at Al-Muradiya research state, Babylon government, Iraq, to study the role of the sprayed types of potassium fertilizer in improving of flag leaf contribution in grain yield of wheat. The layout of the experiment was randomized complete block design in factorial arrangement at three replicates. The experiment included spraying common and nano potassium fertilizer at booting stage, in addition to control treatment (spraying of distilled water) as a first factor, and removal treatments (removal of flag leaf at 10% anthesis stage and nonremoval) as a second factor. The results showed that the spraying of nano potassium fertilizer was significantly superior in the dry matter transp
