The aim of this study was the isolation and characterization of Klebsiella pneumonia from 160 urine samples of patients hospitalized in children hospital in AL-Ramadi Proveng during October 2006 to May 2008. Also determination of the susceptibility of K. pneumoniae against a number of antibiotics to explain resistance mechanism for these antibiotics by using interpretative reading to avoid using it in treatment. Forty two isolates were detected as K. pneumoniae with resistance to a number of antibiotics . These isolates were tested to determine their sensitivities to a wide number of antibiotics which included β-lactum group and aminoglicosides using disk diffusion method and the strain E. coli ATCC 25922, using as standard strain. The interpretative reading of the sensitivity data to β-lactamas inferred the following: Classical type of K. pneumoniae 7\42 (16,6%), penicillinase-high level producing 6\42(14.2), 29\42(68.9%)ESBLs enzyme producing isolates. Then 7\42(16.6) producing ESBLs- Ceftazidimase enzyme and 22\42 (52.3%) ) producing ESBLs- Broad enzyme. As for aminoglicosides the interpretative reading inferred the following : Classical type of K. pneumoniae 4\42 (9.5%) and 8\42 (19%) producing enzymes AAC(3´)-I,11\42(26%) producing enzymes AAC(3´)-I I,6\42(14%) APH(3) enzymes and 5\42 (11,9%) AAC(6´)-II enzyme further, the enzymes ANT(3) were 8\42 (19%). The results of the present study indicated that K. pneumoniae strains had unusual resistance protocols and this high percentage of strains that produce β-lactamas enzymes in K. pneumoniae referred to wide unusual uses of antibiotics and poor control on infection in hospital.
Echinococcosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the larval stage of the tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus. This disease is an important public health and a significant economic issue in Iraq, where the lungs and livers are the popular places of infection. The aim of the current study focused on using the molecular techniques in the detection of an E. granulosus strain that causes cystic echinococcosis to human, sheep and cattle in Thi-Qar province, Iraq. In the current study, thirty isolates of E. granulosus were collected from 10 human hydatid cysts through surgery done at Al-Hussein Imam Teaching Hospital in Thi-Qar province and 10 sheep with 10 cattle hydatid cysts were obtained from the slaughterhouse in Thi-
... Show MoreNew chelating ligand derived from triazole and its complexes with metal ions Rhodium, Platinum and Gold were synthesized. Through a copper (I)-catalyzed click reaction, the ligand produced 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between 2,6-bis((prop-2-yn-1-yloxy) methyl) pyridine and 1-azidododecane. All structures of these new compounds were rigorously characterized in the solid state using spectroscopic techniques like: 1HNMR, 13CNMR, Uv-Vis, FTIR, metal and elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility and conductivity measurements at room temperature, it was found that the ligand acts as a penta and tetradentate chelate through N3O2, N2O2, and the geometry of the new complexes are identified as octahedral for (Rh & Pt) complexes a

This research is to study the prevalence of congenitally missing teeth and supernumerary teeth in this population group. Materials and Method: One hundred eight cleft lip and/or palate Iraqi patients had participated in this study (57 male, 51 female), 3-12 years of age. 26 of them had orthopantomogram were within (6-12) years of age were inspected for congenitally missing teeth and supernumerary teeth. Patients whom age range 3-5 years were checked for the congenitally missing teeth by clinical examination with strongly insisting the teeth were not missed due to caries or trauma. Results: There were 19(73.076%) patients with 41 congenitally missing tee
