A New Biological System For Detecting Environmetal Carcinogens And /Or Mutagenes And Their Adversary
...Show More Authors

A  new  test  system  for  detecting  environment  carcinogenes and/or  mutagenes  and  their  adversary  It  has  been  induced.  One hundred and fifty   mutants   were isolated from   the basidiomycete fungus Coprinus cinereus   which were   resistant to guanine analogue S- az.aguanine .All the spontaneous and induced with UV light origin mutants were isolated from the wild type strains Bc9/6.6 and  Hd5.5

.These mutants were te ted on selective medium containing  different

concentrations of the analogue and also to their ability to usc purine bases and their degredated  products as  a sole  nitrogene source were tested ; and their ability to grow on HAT   medium was tested . According  to  the results obtained  from these test;  mutants  were

classified into four phenotypic groups for each  iJd -type strain .

All  the  8-az.aguanine  resistant  mutants  were  d.ikaryotized   with

compatible wild strains. The dikaryons produced were unable to grow on  medium           containing        8-az.aguanine                     which               establish the recessiveness of the mutations to their respective wi ld-type alleles. Complementation   test  detcrmind  four  genes   which  controll   the resi stance  to 8- azaguaninc in Coprinus cincres   .These genes were desi gnated  azg-1, azg-2, azg'-3, azg-4.Three of these genes azg-1, azg-2 and azg'-4werc carried by Bc9/6.6 and Hl /5.5 mutants. While, azg-3 gene  was found in Bc9/6.6 mutants only.

These  genes  are determ.ind for  the  first  time  in  fungus coprinus cinereus  .

Mutants which carry azg-1  gene were characterized by their inability to use   hypozanthine and                                              guanine as a sole nitrogen source in the

medium ; their failure to grow  on HAT medium  and their resistance

to all concentrations of 8- az.aguanine used.This gene is considered to

represent  a mutation led to   lose or   modify the specificity of the enzyme hypoxauthine -guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) whi ch play an important role in transferring hypoxauthine and guanine to their nucleotides  by salvage pathway.

Spore analysis indi cated that azg'-1  gene locted in linkage group II

,since it gave a distance of 28 map units with the mating type gene

The assessment of the cytotoxic , mutagn ic and antimutagc•tic role of

the  aqueous extract of  garl ic     (Allium  sativum  L.)  against the genotoxic effect of mitomycin - C

( MMC ) evaluate the ability of the mutagen to induce mutation in

HGPRT gene by    using the asexual spores (oidia )of Copninus cineraus for the strain AZG78 and by depending on the viabil ity and mutation rate in HGPRT gene test .To assess cytotoxity and mutagenecity of garlic extract , gradual concentrations were prepared . The concentration of choice was considered with respect to  two factors ; high survi val rate and low mutagenic  activity (similar to negative control ). To examine the antimutagenic  effects of  the extract, an interation was made between the crude  extract and the mutagen   MMC with respect to three kinds of treatments before , aOer and with mutagen . The study concentrated on two sides 1- on the toxic and /or m utagenic effect of the aqueous extract of garlic . 2 - Antimutagenic activity of the extract with respect to   the mutageen MMC . However,   this activity was dependent on the type of the treatment . The extract showed best antimutagenic activity when it was used before the mutagen , so itis considered as desmutagen to the genotox i c effects of MMC.

These data support the hypothesis that garlic compounds may be eflicacius in preventions of cancer and also we could use the HGPRT

gene as  a  sensitive biological  system  in  detecting environmental mutagenes or carcinogens and their adversary .

A comparison of cross sections for Selenium -73 radioisotopes produced by accelerators and reactors
...Show More Authors

Background: Selenium-73 with half- life of 7.15 hour emits β+ in nature and has six stable isotopes which are ( 74Se,76Se,77Se,78Se,80Se and 82Se ). Selenium-73 has many applications in technology and radioselenium compounds of metallic have found various applications in medicine. Objective:  To make a comparison between different reactions that produced cross sections of Se-73 radioisotopes. Subjects and methods: The feasibility of the production of Selenium -73 via various nuclear reactions was investigated. Excitation functions of 73Se production by the reactions of 75As (p,3n), 169Tm( d,x), 74Se, natSe, natBr (p,x) , 75As (d,4n), natGe (3He,x), 70Ge (α, n), and 72Ge (α, 3n) and neutron capture were calculated using the avail

Bridging Traditional and Immersive Technologies in Design Education: A Comprehensive Framework for Institutional Adoption
...Show More Authors

The significant addition of immersive technologies, Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality(AR) and Mixed Reality(MR) are transforming the domain of design education. Still, finding an equilibrium between these new tools alongside with traditional methods of teaching is a menace which educational institutes needs to solve. This paper proposes a structure that would help the ease with which to include immersive technologies within design education, keeping in mind the solid points of more conventional pedagogical methods. Based on a survey of interior design programs, this research highlights the potential for VR, AR and MR in student engagement, creativity skills and professional practices. The results suggest that adoption of an im

Design a Vegetative Filter Strips Length Using VFSMOD_W Model for Reducing Sediments and Pesticides
...Show More Authors

 Abstract 

The vegetative filter strips (VFS) are a useful tool used for reducing the movement of sediment and pesticide in therivers. The filter strip’s soil can help in reducing the runoff volume by infiltration. However, the characteristics of VFS (i.e., length) are not recently identified depending on the estimation of VFS modeling performance. The aim of this research is to study these characteristics and determine acorrelation between filter strip length and percent reduction (trapping efficiency) for sediment, water, and pesticide. Two proposed pesticides(one has organic carbon sorption coefficient, Koc, of 147 L/kg which is more moveable than XXXX, and another one

Standard Pushout Tests and Design Rules for a Bolted–Welded Hybrid Demountable Shear Connector
...Show More Authors

A bolted–welded hybrid demountable shear connector for use in deconstructable steel–concrete composite buildings and bridges was proposed. The hybrid connector consisted of a partially threaded stud, which was welded on the flange of a steel section, and a machined steel tube with compatible geometry, which was bolted on the stud. Four standard pushout tests according to Eurocode 4 were carried out to assess the shear performance of the hybrid connector. The experimental results show that the initial stiffness, shear resistance, and slip capacity of the proposed connector were higher than those of traditional welded studs. The hybrid connector was a ductile connector, according to Eurocode 4, with slip capacity higher than 6 mm. A nonli

New Approaches of Cloud Services Access using Tonido Cloud Server for Real-Time Applications
...Show More Authors

A Tonido cloud server provides a private cloud storage solution and synchronizes customers and employees with the required cloud services over the enterprise. Generally, access to any cloud services by users is via the Internet connection, which can face some problems, and then users may encounter in accessing these services due to a weak Internet connection or heavy load sometimes especially with live video streaming applications overcloud. In this work, flexible and inexpensive proposed accessing methods are submitted and implemented concerning real-time applications that enable users to access cloud services locally and regionally. Practically, to simulate our network connection, we proposed to use the Raspberry-pi3 m
