A new simple sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method has been
developed for the analysis of vanadium(V) in three randomly chosen samples from
river water at different locations by continuous flow injection analysis. The method
based on the oxidation of pyrogallol by vanadium(V) in acidic solution to form color
species and the same species was determined using homemade Ayah 6SX1-T-2D
solar cell analyser . Chemical and physical parameters were investigated using the
high intensity of snow white light emitted diode as a source. The linear dynamic
range for the instrument response versus vanadium(V) concentration was 1-200
mg.L-1 with correlation coefficient r = 0.9920. The limit of detection (S/N=3) was 70
ng/ sample from the step wise dilution for the minimum concentration in the linear
dynamic range of the calibration graph with RSD % of lower than 1% at 90 mg.L-1
(n=5) concentration of vanadium(V). The method was applied successfully for the
determination of vanadium (V) in three river samples. A comparison was made
between: both of the proposed methods and classical method (UV-Vis
spectrophotometry at wave length 427 nm) using the standard additions method via
the use of paired t-test. It was noticed that there was no significant difference
between two methods at 95 % confidence level

Alcoholic Liver Disease: Alfa Fetoprotein Alteration, Hematological & Biochemical Characteristics
Alcoholic liver disease
Alfa fetoprotein
gamma glutamyl transpeptidase. Statistical analysis: Chi square tests and the mean value with SD for each value were determined using ANOVA. A p value of <0.05 was considered to be positive.
Background: Alcohol remains the single most significant cause of liver disease throughout the Western world, responsible for between 40 and 80% of cases of cirrhosis in different countries. Many of the factors underlying the development of alcoholic liver injury remain unknown, and significant questions remain about the value of even very basic therapeutic strategies.
Patients and Methods: In a cross sectional study, 113 alcoholic patients with evidence of liver disease in the absence of other significant etiology attending the Gastoenterorology and Hepatology Teaching Hospital between December 2001 and December 2003 were studied for the hematological and biochemical spectrum of alcoholic liver disease in
