Surface water flow samples were collected with distances downstream over Saqlawiya main drain whose stretch of about 24.5 km. The drain travels through different land use pattern, before, flowing into Tigris River. Eight sampling points were carefully
selected downstream the channel during dry season. The examined water parameters were pH, NH3, NO3, PO= 4, BOD5, COD, TDS, S.S, Cl-, SO= 4, Na+ , Ca+2, Mg+2, and Oil and Grease. Descriptive and inferential methods through finding the best curve fit correlation were employed in the study to test the strength of the association between water chemical characteristics and distance downstream the channel. A comparison of the values of chemical parameters at the Al-Saqlawiya Drain-Tigris River meeting shows that nine parameters (i.e. pH, NH3, NO3, PO= 4, BOD5, COD, TDS, S.S, and Oil and Grease) out of the 14 parameters under study decreased in
their concentration at meeting point. In a further analysis, predictive models were obtained through using six sampling points (0. 1, 3, 5,7, 8) and leaving three (2, 4, 6) as activation function. The percentage error for the calculated values of pH, NH3, BOD5, COD, TDS, Cl-.
SO= 4, Na+ and Mg+2 ranges from (0.54 to 15) % which demonstrate the high predictive capacity of the models. While the high values of the determination coefficient (r higher than 0.9) for NH3,NO3, BOD5, COD, SS, Cl-. SO= 4, Na+ , Mg+2 and Oil and grease, demonstrate a good model capacity relating water values and distances downstream Finally the paper concludes that artificial purification efforts at the water works should be directed towards controlling the concentration of Cl- , SO= 4, Na+ , Ca+2 , Mg+2 which increased with increases in distance downstream and suggests further research in the area of monitoring water quality.
This study ,the samples were collected from "118 patients " suffering from burn wound contaminated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 100 health individuals (male and female ) as a control group ,the samples were wound swap and blood sample . Chromatography technique was employed to extract and purify cell wall containing lipopolysaccharide by using P. aeruginosa isolate ATCC 15692,the purification done by addition of ammonuium sulfate, sodium dodecyl sulfat (SDS) anddialysis, gel filtration chromatography by using sepharose-4B. Immunogenicity of LPS component was determined by mice injection under the skin ,then Ab concentration agai

The antimicrobial activity of the concentrated supernatant containing partially purified concentrated killer toxin was also detected against several pathogenic bacteria and yeast species, which includes two types of yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa and Candida tropicalis and four human pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeurginosa. In addition, the antagonistic activity of examined yeast have been studied toward four types of fungi, where two are pathogenic

Show MoreSome major pollutants of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) those discharged as water produced (WP) from the AlAhdab oil field (AOF) in the ponds close to it may leak to the water resources around and eventually reaches the marshes which will affect its ecosystem. Thus, this work aims to track the availability of PAH in the water resources and the Main Outfall Drain (MOD) nearby. The determination of PAH was evaluated using “High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)”. The mean concentration of sixteen PAH in the produced water within the field was relatively high (0.01 to 10.89 g/ml) with standard deviations of (0.10.9). While, PAH outside the field were gradually diminishes down to (0.01-0.039) x10-2 g/ml which exceeds th

One and two-dimensional hydraulic models simulations are important to specify the hydraulic characteristics of unsteady flow in Al-Gharraf River in order to define the locations that facing problems and suggesting the necessary treatments. The reach in the present study is 58200m long and lies between Kut and Hai Cities. Both numerical models were simulated using HEC-RAS software, 5.0.4, with flow rates ranging from 100 to 350 m3/s. Multi-scenarios of gates openings of Hai Regulator were applied. While the openings of Al-Gharraf Head Regulator were ranged between 60cm to fully opened.

This paper introduced the simulated model of a proposed self-balancing platform that described the self–balancing attitude in (X-axis, Y-axis, or both axis) under the influence of road disturbance. To simulate the self-balanced platform's performance during the tilt, an integration between Solidworks, Simscape, and Simulink toolboxes in MATLAB was used. The platform's dynamic model was drawn in SolidWorks and exported as a STEP file used in the Simscape Multibody environment. The system is controlled using the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) co
