Background: Exposure to microwaves radiation from microwave oven may be harmful for users especially for the one who have highest contact with microwave oven. Because the body is electrochemical in nature, any force that disrupts or changes human electrochemical events will affect the physiology of the body by destabilization and interruption of many chemical body substance including growth factors.The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are a family of mitogenic proteins that control growth, differentiation, and the maintenance of differentiated function in numerous tissues. It fulfils an important role in growth and development of teeth, mandible, maxillae, and tongue. Platelet derived growth factors (PDGF) are proteins that regulate cell growth and division. In particular, it plays a significant role in blood vessel formation (angiogenesis). It seems that IGF and PDGF share in much tissue developmental process. Therefore they included in the present study in correlation to tooth growth & development. This study Illustrates the expression of insulin like growth factor and platelet derived growth factor by dental cells of rat embryos at periods of gestation 16th,18thday intrauterine life(I.U.L) and one day neonatal life. Materials and Methods: Animal model: Thirty-six female rats were used in this study .Starting from zero days (time of gestation that recorded) the pregnant rats were divided into three groups. Group A serve as a control, groups B exposed to microwave oven radiation For (15 /minutes; 5/min /hour for 3 hours continuously) daily and C exposed to EMF radiation for (45 minutes ;15 min /hour for3hours continuously)daily starting from zero day of gestation till the last day. The embryo of rats at 16thday and 18th day of intrauterine life and one day old rat (new born rat) were studied immunohistochemically for localized of platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) and insulin growth factor (IGF) markers. Results:The results showed that experimental group (B) exposed to short duration of radiation (5/ min.) stimulates the development of tooth germ and faster tooth growing in comparison to control with immunohistochemical results show strong to moderate intense stain for positive expression of growth factors(PDGF,IGF) by dental tissue.For long exposure period of radiation( group C) , it showed retardation in the tooth growth withimmunohistochemical findings record weak to negative intense stain for the expression of growth factors(PDGF,IGF) by dental tissue. Conclusion: Exposure to microwave (oven) radiation during pregnancy may play a role in the expression of IGF and PDGF by cells of tooth germ thatinfluence on cell differentiation and physiological activity of specialized dental cells, depending on exposure time.
The study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity using different concentrations of aqueous and alcoholic extracts of dried lemongrass leaves. Chemical phytochemical tests were performed for aqueous and alcoholic extracts of lemongrass. Antimicrobials activity was tested using agar disc diffusion method against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The results of the study showed that the aqueous extract of dried lemon leaves was highly effective (P≤0.05) against S. aureus, as the inhibition diameter was 22 mm for 50 dilution, while the inhibition diameter decreased to 15 mm for concentration 100. As for the alcoholic extract only, the diameter of inhibition decreased significantly (P≤0.0
... Show Morethe influence of permeability tensor upon drainage of anisotropic soils under ponded water and steady recharge (rainfall) is theoretically investigated. Tensorial permeability has led to the formulation of mixed type partial differential equations. Since there is no analytical solution to this problem, the formulation is therefore solved numerically by the method of finite elements. The finite element formulation is implemented into a computer model which can be applied to any problem of seepage under steady state
conditions. Two different example problems representing two different flow conditions under full anisotropy have been studied. Results of the model for the isotropic case were checked against exact mathematical solutions de
The content of Furocoumarin derivatives (Psoralens) of Ruta Chalepensis L. (Whole plant) was studied by simple extraction with petroleum ether (b.p. 60-80Co). The results indicated that the plant contains a total of about (0.015%).
Investigation of these compounds by thin layer chromatography (TLC) revealed the presence of at least four compounds of which methoxsalen (8-methoxypsoralen) was isolated. It was identified and authenticated with a standard by spectral method, IR, NMR, Mass spectra and HPLC.This plant could be considered as a good source for supplying this compound, which is widely used in dermatological preparations.
The structural properties of ternary chalcopyrite AgAlSe2 compound alloys and thin films that prepared by the thermal evaporation method at room temperature on glass substrate with a deposition rate (5±0.1) nm s-1 for different values of thickness (250,500 and 750±20) nm, have been studied, using X-ray diffraction technology. As well as, the optical properties of the prepared films have been investigated. The structural investigated shows that the alloy has polycrystalline structure of tetragonal type with preferential orientation (112), while the films have amorphous structure. Optical measurement shows that AgAlSe2 films have high absorption in the range of wavelength (350-700 nm). The optical energy gap for allowed direct
... Show MoreAs the temperature of combustion gases is higher than the melting temperature of the turbine materials, cooling of turbine parts in a gas turbine engine is necessary for safe operation. Cooling methods investigated in this computational study included cooling flow losses. Film-cooling is one typically used cooling method whereby coolant is supplied through holes passage, in present study the holes placed along the camber line of the blade. The subject of this paper is to evaluate the heat transfer that occur on the holes of blade through different
blowing coolant rates. The cases of this study were performed in a low speed wind tunnel with two tip gap at small and large (0.03 and 0.09cm) and multiple coolant flow rates through the fil

Compound (C3) from the reaction with different aromatic aldehydes in absolute ethanol gave the Schiff′s bases (C4,C5). The product compounds were characterized by FT-IR, U.V and 1HNMR spectra and the biological activities were studied as antibacterial.
This research includes a study of dezincification by corrosion from brass alloys in three types of media, which are acidic solution, basic and slat solution in different percentages. The study show the higher dezincification occurs in basic solution which decrease the fatigue properties where the fatigue properties are inversely proportional with dezincification.
The Arabic pronouns received a lot of attention from the ancient Arab grammarians, so they explained their origins, the different forms of their structure, and the aspects of the Arabs’ use of them, and explained the aspects and reasons for these uses, with what they had of linguistic insight, which guided them to clarify the truth of these pronouns.
And recently, this research seeks new knowledge of the development of the structure of the nominative pronouns (he), (she), (them), (taa), and (waw) between dialects and towards classical Arabic, by analyzing the structure of these pronouns into their components. Its linguistic formulas are traced from the ancient Arabic texts, and by ancient I mean the texts of the era of linguistic ci
In this study, Mn-Ni Ferrite was prepared by using two composites of manganese ferrite ( MnFe2o4 ) and Nicle Ferrite ( NiFe2O4) tested by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) method. The dielectric constant (ðœ€Ì…) and the dielectric loss tangent (ð‘¡ð‘Žð‘› ð›¿) were studied for the ferrite system prepared at different frequencies (100, 200… and 5000 kHz). It was found that the values of (ðœ€Ì…) and (ð‘¡ð‘Žð‘› ð›¿) decrease with the increase of frequencies.
