In this study Oscillatoria princeps were isolated ،purified and identification
from water canal in Almustansiriah University . BG-11 culture media was used for
their cultivation in suitable laboratory conditions (25c°, 200μE/mP
2
P/sec) for 16:8 hrs.
Light: dark. Each culture was harvested at the end of exponential phase .Organic
solvents used for extraction was Chloroform: methanol at 2:1 to extract the crude
active Intracellular and Extracellular substances, and evaporated down to dryness.
Antibacterial activity of these different extracts were evaluated against 10 strains of
gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria, Agar diffusion method was used
in this evaluation. Results showed that the intracellular products which extracted
beast than extracellular product. The gram positive bacteria studied revealed higher
susceptibility to attack by the intracellular and extracellular extracts comparing with
the gram negative bacteria. The intercellular extraction revealed higher antibacterial
activity against Staphylococcus arueus average of inhibition zone was 30mm. but
The extracellular extraction revealed higher antibacterial activity against Bacillus
subtilise average of inhibition zone was 28 mm. However, Results showed gram
negative bacteria intracellular products extract has the antagonistic activity against
Pseudomonas aeruginosas with 25 mm inhibition zone. also been detected on some
fatty acids produced by the algae O.princeps which Palmitic , Stearic, Arachidic ,
Linoleic and Linolenic . the highest rate is fatty acid Palmitic 75% of the extract
intercellular while the rate of 34% of the acid fatty Linolenic to extracellular
abroad.
The present study includes the evaluation of petrophysical properties and lithological examination in two wells of Asmari Formation in Abu Ghirab oil field (AG-32 and AG-36), Missan governorate, southeastern Iraq. The petrophysical assessment was performed utilizing well logs information to characterize Asmari Formation. The well logs available, such as sonic, density, neutron, gamma ray, SP, and resistivity logs, were converted into computerized data using Neuralog programming. Using Interactive petrophysics software, the environmental corrections and reservoir parameters such as porosity, water saturation, hydrocarbon saturation, volume of bulk water, etc. were analyzed and interpreted. Lithological, mineralogical, and matrix recogniti

The connector uses high-strength steel bolts, which are fastened to the top flange of the steel beam with the aid of a special locking nut configuration that prevents bolts from slipping within their holes. Moreover, the connector promotes accelerated construction and overcomes the typical construction tolerance issues of precast structures. Most importantly, the connector allows bridge disassembly. Therefore, it can address different bridge deterioration scenarios with minimum disturbance to traffic flow including the following: (1) precast deck panels can be rapidly uplifted and replaced; (2) connectors can be rapidly removed and replaced; and (

The present study is aimed to find an alternative dye from safe food dyes which commonly used in food coloring. Five dyes were selected depending on their chemical properties and the availability in local market: Brilliant Blue FCF, Tartrazine, Sunset Yellow FCF, Carmoisine, and green traditional, three dyes were chosen to be mixed as loading buffer: Brilliant Blue FCF, Sunset Yellow FCF as a basic because it give the whole range size of most traditional loading buffers that available in market, and adding the Carmoisine as a new indicator for the bands less t

Using alkaline extracts of 8%, the study has been shown clear effect increased in mortality rate for fourth larval stage 93.3% and degressed to 66.6% at 4% concentrate to 13.3% with control treatment .Ahigher percentage of pupal mortality 16.6% at 4% concentrate has been observed, while no natural emergence carried out at concentrates of 4.6% comparing with control treatment of 86.66%, at the same time percentage of deformation has been increased to 16.66% at 4% of extracts and degressed to 6.66% at 6% while no deformation have been shown with control treatment .
... Show MoreOne of the main environmental problems which affect extensively the areas in the world is soil salinity. Traditional data collection methods are neither enough for considering this important environmental problem nor accurate for soil studies. Remote sensing data could overcome most of these problems. Although satellite images are commonly used for these studies, however there are still needs to find the best calibration between the data and real situations in each specified area. Landsat satellite (TM & ETM+) images have been analyzed to study soil pollution (Exacerbation of salinity in the soil without the use of abandoned agricultural for a long time) at west of Baghdad city of Iraqi country for the years 1990, 2001 & 2007. All of the th

Show MoreThe need for Dewatering is very important in construction workshops field and sometimes it needs to pay more attention as a result of its impacts on causing additional settlement of nearby pile foundations. Dewatering construction may become a costly topic if ignored during project planning and designing .In this paper a simplified procedure maybe adopted to calculate the foundation settlement induced by using dewatering system which is required to lower the water table level to reach a dry condition during construction. Synthesized case study adopted at a specified location in Baghdad city and analysis are computed for two types of piles both of them are submerged with water. Results shows the effect of dewatering on pile foundatio
