The correlation between serum levels of soluble platelet -selectin in preeclampsia with & without intrauterine growth retardation versus normal pregnancy
...Show More Authors

Background: preeclampsia is characterized by endothelial dysfunction with vasoconstriction due to cell adhesion molecules or mediators released by defective placentation. Soluble platelet selectin, one of the cell adhesion molecules, is elevated in many inflammatory conditions including preeclampsia.
Objective: To investigate if soluble platelet-selectin levels can be used as a marker for adverse outcomes in pregnancy complicated with sever preeclampsia
Patients and methods:This study involved 115 pregnant women in their third trimester of pregnancy; divided into Group A: involves 25 pregnant women with preeclampsia complicated by intrauterine growth restriction.Group B: involves 35 pregnant women with preeclampsia without intrauterine growth restriction.Control group: involve 55 pregnant women with normal blood pressure and normal fetal growth .The data were conducted from patients by special questionnaire, this involve name, age, parity, examination included vital signs, abdominal, obstetrical examination and investigations including :Liver function test, Renal function test, Complete blood picture and maternal serum levels of soluble platelet selectin was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ,albumin in urine and serial obstetrical ultrasound scan to confirm the diagnosis of intrauterine growth retardation and Doppler study to determine fetuses at risk .
Results: this study revealed a significantly higher concentration of soluble platelet selectin levels in serumofpreeclamptic women with and without intrauterine growth retardation versus normotensive and normal fetal growth. The maternal serum levels of sP-selectin in preeclampsia without intrauterine growth restriction were significantly higher than preeclampsia complicated by intrauterine growth restriction .Sensitivity was 91.7% and specificity 100% at cut off value 6.975 ng/ml of maternal soluble platelet _selectin for prediction of adverse pregnancy outcome .
Conclusion: soluble platelet -selectin levels have a positive significant correlation with the severity of preeclampsia, so it can beconsidered as a marker for its severity and can be used as a predictor for adverse outcomes as itsnegatively correlated with these complications

The Application of Microwave Technology in Demulsification of Water-in-Oil Emulsion for Missan Oil Fields
...Show More Authors

A series of batch demulsification runs were carried out to evaluate the final emulsified water content of emulsion samples after the exposure to microwave. An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a set of operating variables on the demulsification performance. Several microwave irradiation demulsification runs were carried out at different irradiation powers (700, 800, and 900 watt), using water-in-oil emulsion samples containing different water contents (20-80%, 30-70%, and 50-50%) and salt contents (10000, 20000, and 30000 ppm). It was found that the best separation efficiency was obtained at 900watt, 50% water content and 160 s of irradiation time. Experimental results showed that microwave radiation method can

The Effect of Camel Milk &Urine in Viability of Entamoeba histolytica Growing in Culture Media LEM
...Show More Authors

   This study included the isolation of the parasite Entamoeba histolytica from bloody mucoid diarrhea specimens of patients suffering from amoebic dysentery and cultivation of parasite in Locke-egg medium (LEM) to study  the effect of camel's milk and urine on the viability of E . histolytica with different concentrations (1 , 5  and 10 % ). The ability of camel's milk and urine in inhibiting the E . histolytica viability  is examined after  24 and 48 h of incubation The results showed that the activity of camel's milk and urine was  directly proportional  with  the increase  in concentration and incubation period. Since the  highest rate of parasite death reached ( 99.5% and 99.4%

Corrosion Inhibition of Medium Carbon Steel in the Acidic Medium Using Alcoholic and Aqueous Extract of Kujarat Tea Plant
...Show More Authors

This study deals with the corrosion inhibition of metal corrosion process of medium carbon steel using 1M HCl for kinetic studies and rate reaction determination. The weight loss method is applied to pieces of Medium carbon steel divided to Cubans with dimensions (0.4*2*2.4) cm , and use Tafel Extrapolation Method, the samples were polished using carbide silicon paper with dimensions of (180,200,400,600,800,1000). The samples were immersed in the alcoholic medium ethanol at a temperature 293K for 3hr. Natural inhibitor Kujarat Tea (Hibiscus sabdarriffa L.) is used which is extracted in aqueous and alcoholic medium, different concentrations (1000،2000, 3000) ppm have been used ; The best concentration found through the results is a conce
