...Show More Authors

   Four hundred and fifty urine samples were collected from patients suffering from urinary tract infection from the General Azadi hospital in Kurkuk province ,during the period of october 2007 till march 2008 .       Results of bacteriological culture revealed that (168) out of (450) studied samples (37.3%) gave positive culture using blood agar and macConkey agar ; different species of bacterial isolates were detected using morphological and biochemical tests ,from these isolates the highest percentage of the isolates were from Escherichia coli when it was (100) isolates out of (190) isolate  (52.63%)  .  one hundred isolates were distributed between (77) from females and (23) from males     The susceptibility  of E.coli isolates towards (13) types of antimicrobial agents commomly used in treatment of urinary tract infection were tested in vitro . Variations in susceptibility against antimicrobial were found. The antiseptic drug Nitrofurantoin showed the highest activity on E.coli when the resistance reached  (14 %) , from the other hand E.coli isolates showed great resistance to other antimicrobial : sulphamethoxazole was (100 %) ,Ampicillin (99 %) ,Cephalexin   (62 %) ,Agumentin (58 %) , Nalidixic acid (54 %) , Trimethoprim (52 %) , Pipracillin (45 %) , Ceftriaxone (40 %) , Lomefloxacin (39 %) , Cefotaxime (39 %) , Ciprofloxacin (37 %) and to Co-trimxazole was (37 %) .     Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) for Ciprofloxacin and Lomefloxacin were studied and the results showed higher values in MIC. MIC values for eight  isolates of bacteria  E.coli were so high they were (400> µg/ml) for Ciprofloxacin were (19.5%) while five isolates of bacteria E.coli were with  MIC value of (400>µg/ml) with (11.6%) to Lomefloxacin .        The ability of bacteria E.coli isolates  to produce ß-lactamase enzyme using Capillary tubes method was studied. The results showed (61 %) of these isolates gave positive results when the red cloer of the indicator phenol was changed from red to yellow within (15) minuets .When using Disc approximation method to detect the ability to production Extended Spectrum ßlactamase enzyme (ESBLs) out of (61)isolates only (11)isolates were positive (18 %); Nine ESBLs producer showed high resistance to antimicrobial Quinolones (Naldixic acid ,Ciprofloxacin and Lomefloxacin) with percentage reached (72.7%) .

In the rapidly evolving telecommunications industry, accurate valuation of tangible assets remains a critical challenge that requires adherence to universally recognized standards. This study addresses the pressing need for transparent and precise asset valuation methodologies that are pivotal for informed investment decisions and financial reporting. It aims to bridge the theoretical and practical divide in asset valuation by applying International Valuation Standards (IVS) 300 and 400 to Asiacell Communications PJSC, a leading entity in the sector. Focusing on five key tangible assets from 2018 to 2022 – lands, buildings, plant and equipment, means of transport and transfer, and furniture and office equipment – the study emplo

Folklore as Resistance in Postcolonial Narratives and Cultural Practices: Hawaiian, African American, and Iraqi

Colonialism radically transformed the cultures of colonized peoples, often rupturing Indigenous traditions and folklore. Whether creating colonial discourse, promoting orientalist literature, advocating western educational institutions, or through biased media representations, imperial powers systematically oppressed Indigenous and Native peoples.

This discourse insists on Indigenous and Native culture as central to Indigenous and Native peoples identity. This study examines the postcolonial literature of three groups: Kānaka Maoli, African Americans, and Iraqis. The scope of this dissertation scrutinizes how folklore is employed

Through this research, We have tried to evaluate the health programs and their effectiveness in improving the health situation through a study of the health institutions reality in Baghdad to identify the main reasons that affect the increase in maternal mortality by using two regression models, "Poisson's Regression Model" and "Hierarchical Poisson's Regression Model". And the study of that indicator (deaths) was through a comparison between the estimation methods of the used models. The "Maximum Likelihood" method was used to estimate the "Poisson's Regression Model"; whereas the "Full Maximum Likelihood" method were used for the "Hierarchical Poisson's Regression Model
