This study was undertaken to introduce a fast, accurate, selective, simple and environment-friendly colorimetric method to determine iron (II) concentration in different lipstick brands imported or manufactured locally in Baghdad, Iraq. The samples were collected from 500-Iraqi dinars stores to establish routine tests using the spectrophotometric method and compared with a new microfluidic paper-based analytical device (µPAD) platform as an alternative to cost-effective conventional instrumentation such as Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). This method depends on the reaction between iron (II) with iron(II) selective chelator 1, 10-phenanthroline(phen) in the presence of reducing agent hydroxylamine (HOA) and sodium acetate (NaOAc) buffer to yield a reddish/orange colour change proportional to the iron(II) concentration measured at λmax = 510 nm. Under optimum conditions, the calibration curve was linear in the range between (0.5-150) mg L-1 with a limit of detection of 0.09 mg L-1. Compared to a spectrophotometric detection method, µPAD measured colour intensity using captured images using Samsung mobile phone and image J program to give proof of concept that µPAD platform fulfils the purpose of accuracy and at the same time remaining cost-effective and simplistic to be used in both developing and developed countries gave same linear calibration curve with a limit of detection 0.12 mg L-1. ANOVA test was used to compare the proposed method results with conventional method results showing the method was accepted. The antimicrobial activity showed no significant effect from lipstick samples on tested microbes.
Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease of unknown etiology characterized by joint inflammation and the presence of autoantibodies, mostly Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACCP) which are released when the body loses its ability to distinguish between self and foreign molecules. Serum amyloid A2 (SAA2) is an acute phase protein produced in response to inflammatory conditions including RA.
Objectives: To investigate the prognostic ability of SAA2 in comparison with ACCP and the prediction of disease activity and response to treatment by Methotrexate and Etanercept in Iraqi RA patients.

Show MoreThis paper deals with the position of the UAE Civil Transactions Law No. 5 of 1985 on the harmful act and how it dealt with this subject, and we know that the direct historical source of the civil transactions law is the Jordanian Civil Code. Some texts are quoted literally from this law. The Jordanian civil law is clearly influenced by the jurisprudence of Hanafi and the jurisprudential jurisprudence, while the general orientation of the UAE legislator is to adopt the most appropriate solutions in the jurisprudence with the introduction of the Maliki and Hanbali and Hanafi and Shafei, in the absence of legislation to rule the matter, the authors of the law The United Arab Emirates have changed some of the texts passed on to the Jordania

Objective: the aim of this study is to define serum levels of lipid profile in women with breast cancer (BC) and to compare that with fibroadenoma benign breast tumor. Also, to assess the role of serum CA 15-3 in early diagnosis of breast cancer (BC).
Patients and Methods: This case study was carried out at Biochemistry Department, College of Medicine, University of Baghdad, during the period from February 2017 to November 2017. It included 38 Iraqi women diagnosed with primary breast cancer (BC, Group-I) and 25 women with Fibroadenom

methods have been developed for the determination of clonazepam(CZP) in pure
form and in pharmaceutical preparations. The proposed methods are based on the
oxidative coupling reaction of the reduced clonazepam using Zn powders and conc.
HCl with payrocatechol and in the presence of ferric sulphate. The resulting reddish
colored product had a maximum absorbance at 515 nm. The optimum reaction
conditions and other analytical parameters have been evaluated . The linear ranges
for the batch and FI methods determination of CZP were 0.5-32, 50-400 μg mL-1
and the detection limits were 0.193, 22.60 μg mL-1 for both methods respectively.

The legislators in (France, Egypt and Syria) set controls for filing an administrative lawsuit, including the signature of the lawsuit petition by a lawyer accepted before the court, and the lawyer is committed to performing his work in accordance with the conditions of the State Council and the practice of the legal profession. And if the goal of the legislator is to achieve the public and private interest represented in observing the law and assisting the plaintiff legally, then this condition sometimes leads to individuals refraining from resorting to the judiciary because of the financial cost of registration fees and lawyers, which prompted the legislator, especially the French, to exempt several lawsuits from this condition, includ
