Conventional flexible pavements are released to different types of failure in the initial phases of their service life due to high traffic density, high speeds, heavy loads, and harsh climates. To eliminate pavement damage and failure early, the present search investigates the impact of adding glass, steel, and basalt fibers in the asphalt mixtures. Also, the study evaluates these materials characteristics compared to the mixtures without fibers. The Marshall test and tensile strength ratio test (TSR) were utilized to evaluate the asphalt mixture's performance. A set of specimens were produced by incorporating glass fiber (GF), steel fiber (SF), and basalt fiber (BF) at (0.10%, 0.15%, 0.20%), (0.25%, 0.35%, 0.45%), and (0.15%, 0.35%

The port of Gwadar is a major turning point in the Pakistani economy, as it is characterized by a very important strategic location and has characteristics that enable it to play an active role in the region, being a land bridge linking Central Asia, especially the countries of Central and South Asia, by the sea, and also linking the Chinese economy (west of China to the port). And due to its distinguished strategic location, which made it a center of attraction for large commercial ships, despite all the positive advantages, there are obstacles that stand in the way of completing it in the required manner represented by challenges (internal, regional and international) that fear the completion of the port, which will generate profit

Allium ampeloprasum extract has the potential to facilitate wound healing due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential wound-healing activity of the methanol extract derived from Allium ampeloprasum. Using 30 healthy male Wester rats; control group: 15 rats; normal saline applied locally instead of plant-extract. Experimental group: 15 rats received a daily local application of 200 mg/kg of the plant extract. Then, for each healing period of 0, 5, or 10 days, each group was divided into three-subgroups: A, B, and C, each with five rats. There was a significant difference in the percentage of wound contraction between the control and experimental groups (p 0.02)

تمتلك المستخلصات النباتية أهمية خاصة تجاه صحة الإنسان والأنشطة الحيوية لمجموعة واسعة من الأمراض. هدفت الدراسة الحالية إلى التحقق من وجود مكونات فعالة في مستخلص أوراق البردقوش ، وتحديد مضادات الأكسدة ، والأنشطة المضادة للبكتيريا والفطريات ، و LD50 ونشاطها المضاد لمرض السكر. تم تحليل المكونات النشطة نوعيا من خلال طرائق اختبار محددة. وتم قياس الأنشطة المضادة للأكسدة ، LD50 ، مضادات البكتريا والفطريات بالطرائ

Three Schiff bases from Benzaldehyde and Salicylaldehyde have been synthesized (A, 1and 2) and two of them (1and 2) have been tested for anti-inflammatory activity. The p-aminobenzene sulfonamide has been synthesized from acetanilide through the addition of excess chlorosulfonic acid then concentrated ammonia solution; Schiff base of this derivative (2) exhibited good level of activity against egg-white induced edema in rat hind paw, while the other tested derivative exhibited no activity.

Key words: Schiff bases, sulfonamide derivatives, salicylaldehyde

In this study, thirty-two adult male mice were divided into four groups control and experimental treatment groups received crocin at 4, 20, and 100 mg/kg daily for six weeks. In results, testosterone level was increased significantly from 18.5 ng/dl in the control to 49.3 ng/dl in group received crocin at 20 mg/kg. The regular features of seminiferous tubules with increased Sertoli cells have been observed in the 20mg/kg crocin group.  In the group received crocin at 100 mg/kg, many of the seminiferous tubules were atrophic, spermatogenic cells were discontinuous in the same areas while the space among them has been increased, and fewer interstitial tissue between seminiferous tubules were observed. The changes were markedly
