An experiment was conducted at the laboratories of College of Agriculture – Kerbala University during 2016. The aim of this study was to the effect of water extracts of medicinal plants germination percentage and development of plumule and radicle growth .The completely randomized design with three replicates was usedin each experiment consisted of water extracts (T1= Distilled water),(T2= Eruca sativa Eruca sativa L),(T3= Fenugreek ïºï»Ÿïº¤ï» ﺒﺔTrigonella foenum - graecum L),(T4= Sweet FennelFoeniculum vulgare.Mill),(T5=Borage Anchusa strigosa Lab),(T6=Dill Anethum graveolens L) ,(T7=Black cuminNigella Sativa L),(T8=Cumin Cuminumcyminum L),(T9= CorianderCoriandrum sativum L. ). Results of Lab. Water extracts that T9and T8 treatments significantly increased the germination percentage (96.70 and 95%) and germination speed (1.38 and 1.35 seed / day) .whileT9,T8 and T5 gave the high radical lengths (4.05,3.02 and 2.31 cm) respectively. The T8 treatment was superior in giving the higher average of plumule length (7.53cm) and dry weight radical (1.03mg). The T9 significantly gave the highest average of force seedling(958) and dry weight plumule(3.00mg) compared with the T1 treatment (control) which gave the lowest values of percentage, germination speed and high length of radical, length of plumule , dry weight radical, force seedling and dry weight plumule (80% , 1.14 seed / day , 1.66cm,6.63,0.80mg,665 and 2.86mg) respectively. Water extracts of T7, T4.T2 and T3 showed inhibition of all most parameters studies
In this work, a Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) sensor based on the Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) technology was proposed. A thin layer of gold (Au) was deposited on a D-shaped Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF), which was coated with plasmonic chemically stable gold material with a thickness of 40nm. The performance parameters like sensitivity including wavelength sensitivity and amplitude sensitivity and resolution were evaluated by simulation using COMSOL software. The proposed sensor was created by using the finite element approach, it is numerically examined. The results show that the surface of D-shaped Photonic Crystal Fiber coated with Au behaves as a sensor to detect the refractive index (IR) of toxic metal ions. The impacts of the str
