Study of the Effect of Raphanus Sativus, Urtica dioica and Curcuma longa Plant Extracts for Pollution Treatment by Fish's Provender
...Show More Authors

This study was conducted to estimate the activity of crude extracts of the horseradish and nettles, turmeric plant and a combination of these combined plants extracts for the treatment of heavy metal pollution like zinc and cobalt that accumulate in fish by adding them to fish provender. This experiment was carried out during the September, October, November months, by using 40 gold fish that distributed in five basins, the heavy metals ratio (zinc and cobalt) were determined in the bodies of fish before the pollution in each basin. It has been added salts of zinc and cobalt to the basins in order to getting the concentration ratio 10 mg/L for each of the metals in the basins water, after 14 days have been re-determining of the concentration of metals in the basins and before the treatment. Attended three crude plants extract by using alcohol and water, as well as detection of the active compounds that may exist in plant extracts That showed the horseradish extract contains alkaloids , terpenes , saponins , flavonoids, resins , glycosides , coumarins and tannins, while the nettles extract and turmeric extract contains the alkaloids , flavonoids , saponins, resins, tannins and glycosides. also, the toxicity test was carried out for determine the toxicity of extracts, which proved that the crude extracts were non-toxic, then, from the crude extracts were prepared a different concentrations with the singly form and blended to remove a pollution from the bodies of the fish in the four basins, while, The fifth basin was used as a control basin that a provender was added to it only. After 14 days, the concentration of zinc and cobalt were determined in bodies of fish, the concentration of zinc was ranging from 1.7810 mg/L to 2.4527 mg/L, while the cobalt concentration was ranging from 0.0582 mg/L to 1.436 mg/L. The treatment was continued for 21 days, after that, heavy metal salts were determined in the bodies of fish. The concentration of zinc was from 0 mg/L to 2.0950 mg/L and cobalt was 0 mg/L. These results showed the existence of significant differences among the heavy metals concentrations in bodies of fish for different basins after 21 days of treatment. As it is shown by the results that the nettle extract was more efficient in the removal of zinc from the fish tissue. While, the horseradish extract was more efficient in the removal of cobalt from the fish tissue.

Comparative study between pure bacterocin and vancomycin on biofilms of MRSA isolated from medical implants
...Show More Authors

Thirty swabes of medical implants were collected from Al-Yarmouk's hospital which were cultured on manitole agar to isolate Staphelococcus aureus . Only four samples gave positive results with this media. It was used ten types of antibiotics to test the sensitivity of this bacterium against them. All isolates of S. aureus were recorded as multidrug resistant and were considered as MRSA. One pledge alternative therapy is the utilize of certain pure bacterocin MIC (32.5 to 62.5 μg/ml) and it was compared with vancomycin (200-400 μg/ml) with average of (8 – 15) mm diameter of inhibition zones recpectively. The first reduction of biofilm formation ability has been proved in catheters when treatedby pure bacterocin. The test shows the highes

Seismic structural study of Mishrif and Nahr Umr Formations in Huwaiza oilfield south-eastern Iraq
...Show More Authors

An interpretive study of two-dimension seismic data of the Huwaiza oilfield was carried out using Petrel 2015 program. Twenty seismic section were used, these seismic sections were carried out at three-time stages: HH survey in 1976, 2HH survey in 1978 and AM in 1980. Mishrif and Nahr Umr reservoirs were selected to study because they are the most important reservoirs in the neighbor fields. The study showed that the structure is an anticline trending North-South, so that the field may belong to Zubair tectonic subzone rather than Tigris subzone, which is northwest-southeast trending. A hypothetical model was drawn up showing the extension of the field in the Iraqi and Iranian territories based on information from both sides, it showed t

3D Seismic Structural and Stratigraphy Study of Shuaiba Formation in Kumait Oil Field-Southern Iraq
...Show More Authors

The Kumait Oil field was interpreted using 3-D seismic data from Oil Exploration company. The Shuaiba Formation (Cretaceous Age) reflector is detected.Structural map of formation is prepared to obtain the location and direction of  the sedimentary basin and shoreline. Depth maps was drawn depending on the structural interpretation of  the picked reflector and show several structural feature as closures.The seismic interpretation of the area approves the presence of some stratigraphic features in the studied formation. Some distributary mound and flatspot were observed within the study area, but they are not continuous due to the tectonic effects. These activity elements give reasonable explanation for the hydrocarbon distributi

Study of Iraqi Spinach Leaves (Phytochemical and Protective Effects Against methotrexate-Induced hepatotoxicity in rats)
...Show More Authors

Spinach, Spinacia oleracea L is a popular vegetable belonging to the family Chenopodiaceae. This study was concerned with extraction of compounds in Iraqi spinach leaves, preliminary phytochemical evaluation, identification of two biological important flavonols, quercetin and kaempferol in spinach leaves and evaluation of the protective effect of aqueous spinach extract on methotrexate (MTX) induced hepatotoxicity in rats. The percentage yield of extraction procedure, identification of spinach by chemical tests and identification of flavonols by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were fully described in this study.
