Use of radium in studying water resources in Shanafiya-Samawa areasouth Iraq
...Show More Authors

The water resources, Groundwater and surface water, in Shanafiya – Samawa
area- southern Iraq were investigated using radium-226. The study examines the use
of radium as tracer whether saline surface water (Sawa Lake) seeps and interacts
with water of the Euphrates River and where groundwater interacts with surface
water, Euphrates, Atshan River and Sawa Lake. As well as examine the radiological
doses caused by consumption of these waters. Thirteen water samples were analysis
for radium-226 content by precipitation with barium carrier by using gamma
spectroscopy based on hyper-pure Germanium with efficiency 30%. The result
shows that Sawa Lake contains radium concentration higher than that of
groundwater and other sources of surface water. The high value of Ra in the Sawa
Lake can be related to the high salinity. Groundwaters generally have Ra
concentrations that broadly correlate with salinity or with total dissolved solids
(TDS). The radium content in the different water depends on the hydrochemistry of
water especially chlorine and TDS. The radium contents accumulate as clusters in
different groups when plotted with chlorine and TDS which reveals no intermixing
between the different water resources. While the relatively high concentration of Ra-
226 in Sawa Lake may be caused by accumulation of Ra by maxing with
groundwater according the hypotheses that states: in high salinity water system the
dissolution of radium increases and accumulates in the solution. While low Ra-226
concentration in river water reveals that no intermixing has occurred between
groundwater and river water. The annual effective doses due to ingestion of
groundwater and river water in the study area were estimated to be less than the
values recommended by IAEA and WHO.

The The Dynamics of a Prey-Predator Model with Infectious Disease in Prey: Role of Media Coverage
...Show More Authors

In this paper, an eco-epidemiological model with media coverage effect is proposed and studied. A prey-predator model with modified Leslie-Gower and functional response is studied. An  -type of disease in prey is considered.  The existence, uniqueness and boundedness of the solution of the model are discussed. The local and global stability of this system are carried out. The conditions for the persistence of all species are established. The local bifurcation in the model is studied. Finally, numerical simulations are conducted to illustrate the analytical results.

The Effect of Artificial Saliva on The Surface Roughness of Different Esthetic Archwires (An in Vitro Study)
...Show More Authors

Background:The demand for esthetic orthodontic appliances is increasing so that the esthetic orthodontic archwires were introduced. This in vitro study was designed to evaluate the surface roughness offiber-reinforced polymer composite (FRPC) archwires compared to coated nickel-titanium (NiTi) archwires immersed in artificial saliva. Materials and Methods:Three types of esthetic orthodontic archwires were used: FRPC (Dentaurum), Teflon coated NiTi (Dentaurum) and epoxy coated NiTi (Orthotechnology). They were round (0.018 inch) in cross section and cut into pieces of 15 mm in length.Forty pieces from each type were divided into four groups; one group was left at a dry condition and the other three groups were immersed in artificial saliva (

Improvement of the blood characteristics of the broiler chickens by addition tryptophan acid supplement levels in ration
...Show More Authors

This study were implemented on (60) broiler chick with one day age divided into three equal groups , first one was given basal diet while group two and three given adiet contain 0.01% ,0.02% tryptophan respectively for 7 weeks . The results show that the chicks recevd the tryptophan have asigneficant increasment in hemoglobin concentration, red blood cells count, packed cell volume and increased the level of globuline concentration and lymphocyte % which mean that the addition of tryptophan improve blood picture charactores and the immunity of the broiler chickens and this evident from the good health state and decrease the mortality among birds .

Ability of kaolin clays in Adsorption of Toluene 0-Nitro Toluene and 2,4-Dinitro Toluene Part 1
...Show More Authors

This  study was concerned with the adsorption of Toluene ,0·

nitro Toluene and 2,4.dinitro Toluene on The surface of kaolin clay.

The  adsorption isotherms  were of types( S3,S4 ) according  to Giles classification and were in a good correlation with Freundlich equation  in the range of cuncenlraliuns studied. The re5ult indicated that adsorption capacity increase with the increase of equilibrium concentration. The effect of the nwnber of substituted nitro groups in the adsorption extent of toluene was found to decrease in the following order:·

Toluene   > 2,4-dinitro toluene  > 0-nitro toluene

Adsorption on  kaolin surface were examined as afunction

The Establishment of a Theoretical Model for the Estimation of Some Photo-Physical Processes in Laser Dyes
...Show More Authors

In this study, a new theoretical method for the estimation of absorption and fluorescence spectra is accomplished. These estimations were established following experimental measurements of absorption and fluorescence spectra for the solutions of fluorescein laser dye mixed with titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles
in distilled water. The used concentration of fluorescein dye was 1x10-5 M, whereas the masses of titanium dioxide nanoparticles were 0.0003g, 0.0005g, 0.001g and 0.002g. An absorption spectra improvement was observed upon raising the mass of TiO2 nanoparticles, which specifies that doping the fluorescein dye with TiO2 nanoparticles have an essential influence on the dye absorption spectra. On the other side, all fluorescen

Optimization of Glutathione S-Transferase in the Sera of Young Female Iraqi Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type1
...Show More Authors

This study was attempted to determine optimum conditions, for Glutathione s-Transferase enzyme, in sera of three groups diabetic patients type1 depending on duration of disease without complications compared with control group. The aim of this study was to find optimum conditions were determined such as (pH, Substrate Concentration, Temperature, Incubation time, Enzyme concentration, and effect of(0.15M)(0.25M) of mono divalent compounds). And to find the kinetics parameters in the three groups of diabetic patients when compared with control. It was found optimum pH(8.5,4.5,2.5,6.5).Temperatures(20cº,40cº,50cº,30cº).

Measurement of plasma fibrinogen and D-dimer in a sample of Iraqi patients with solid malignant tumors
...Show More Authors

Background: Multifactor affect the pathogenesis of thrombosis in solid malignancy; however, a significant role is attributed to the cancer cells ability to interact with and activate the host hemostatic system. [1] 

Hemostasis is highly correlated to tumor growth, angiogenesis and metastasis, modulation of these pathways reflects interesting and promising treatment options in the future. [1]

Most patients with cancer frequently suffer from chronic compensated DIC and have abnormal laboratory coagulation tests without clinical manifestations of thrombosis, which is a subclinical hypercoagulable state that can be detected by varying degrees of activation of blood clotting. The results of laboratory tests in th
