The Inhibitory Effect of Conocarpus Lancifolius Leaf Extract on Protease Produced by Clinical Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolate

     The study was aimed at inhibiting the protease produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using an 80% alcoholic extract of Conocarpus lancifolius leaves. A total of 146 isolates of P. aeruginosa that were isolated and identified by microscopic and biochemical tests were 51 isolates submitted to primary and secondary screening techniques in order to choose the qualified P. aeruginosa isolate for protease synthesis. Among these isolates, forty-seven isolates showed hydrolysis zones on skim milk media (primary screening); six isolates were chosen for secondary screening. The result revealed that P. aeruginosa P51 had the highest ability to produce the enzyme, with a specific activity of 15.9 U/mg protein. In addition, the study included extracting the leaves of C. lancifolius using 80% ethanolic alcohol and conducting the GC-MC assay and the HPLC assay of the plant extract. The results revealed a significantly decreased specific activity of protease from 15.9 to 1.2 U/mg after treatment with 0.8 µg/ml of alcoholic extract of C. lancifolius leaves.

Study the Effect of Residence Time Parameters on Thermal Cracking Extract Phase Lubricating Oil

This work studies with produce of light fuel fractions of gasoline, kerosene and gas oil from treatment of residual matter that will be obtained from the solvent extraction process as by product from refined lubricate to improve oil viscosity index in any petroleum refinery. The percentage of this byproduct is approximately 10% according to all feed (crude oil) in the petroleum refinery process. The objective of this research is to study the effect of the residence time parameter on the thermal cracking process of the byproduct feed at a constant temperature, (400 °C). The first step of this treatment is the thermal cracking of this byproduct material by a constructed batch reactor occupied with control device at a selective range of re

Antimicrobial Effects of Silver Nanoparticles Produced by Laser Ablation

In this article Silver nanoparticles have been synthesized through physical method where the Nd-YAG laser has been used.The antimicrobial activities of these silver nanoparticles were investigated on two types of bacteria Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. These bacteria were used as representatives of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, respectively. Two experiments have been made The first one was to test the effectiveness of silver nanoparticles as an antimicrobial agent on Gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, while the other one (susceptibility Test) was to evaluate antimicrobial agents effective against bacteria resistant to multiple antibiotics. This study showed t

Production of Protease Enzyme from Wheat Straw

      Protease enzyme production was studied and optimized as  a first step to collect information about solid state fermenter) to produce protease enzyme. A local isolated Aspergillus niger was used for this study with constant spores feeding in every experiment at (105/g). Experiments carried out in conical flasks with (250 ml) containing (10 g) of wheat straw as a substrate with different conditions included temperature, pH, hydration ratio, and fermentation time, the results comprised by measuring protease activity (u). The results showed that the best activity can be obtained at (T = 32°C, t= 100 hrs, pH= 2.5 and hydration ratio is 1:3). On the other hand the results is courage to p

The Effect of Coumarin Derivatives(compounds) on the Vibrio cholerae Isolates from Different Clinical Iraqi Sources

From a large number of bacterial samples collected from different hospital in Iraq in central  health laboratory ,only ten isolates were identified primary as Vibrio. A number of  morphology and biochemical test were carried out to complete this identification that showed all bacterial isolates were related to Vibrio cholerae .In this study  all Vibrio isolates were investigated for Bio typing and the result showed that all (10) isolate were related to (Eltor biotypes) .Also, the susceptibility test towards eight antibiotics were carried  out .

Results shows that  ciprofloxacin , Norfloxacin, Erythromycin, Ampicillin,  ceftriaxone  and Amikacin were the most effective

Decolorization of Reactive Dyes by Spore-bound Laccase from Local Isolate of Bacillus sp.

Utilization of bacterial activity for decolorization of coloured products is one the most promising industrial strategy, as an eco-sustainable and cost-competitive alter-native to physicochemical methods. Laccase production from Bacillus sp. was stud-ied for its decolorization influences on different dyes (Indian ink, Brilliant green, Bromothymol blue, Crystal violet, Safranin, Bromophenol blue, Methelen blue, Giemsa stain, Nigrosin, Toluidin blue, Neutral red, Phenol red, Hanna, Blood, Ben-gal rose B, Bromkresol green, 4-Bromoaniline, Aniline blue, 2,6-Dichlorophenol in-vophenol, Curcumin, Acridine orange, Indigo carmine, Xylene cynol FF,10G, Aliza-rine yellow GG and Kongorose). After 5 days of incubation of the spore-bound lac-case wit

The Effect of Anabasis articulata Stems Extract on Lowering Intraocular Pressure in the Glaucoma Rat Model(Conference Paper )#

High intraocular pressure (IOP) is a recognized risk factor for glaucoma and optic nerve injury, and it is one of the primary causes of vision loss globally. Anabasis articulata (AA) is a desert plant found in Iraq. The extract of AA is used to cure diabetes, fever, eczema, and kidney infections. The aim of the study is to evaluate the antioxidant effect of methanol extract of AA on intraocular pressure in the glaucoma rat model. Forty-two rats were allocated into seven groups, each with six animals:: group 1 (normal), group 2 (control), in which animals were induced to have elevated IOP by betamethasone suspension injection, groups 3,4 and 5 for evaluating the effect of 50,100 and 150 mg/kg/day of the tested extract, respective
