PbxCd1-xSe compound with different Pb percentage (i.e. X=0,
0.025, 0.050, 0.075, and 0.1) were prepared successfully. Thin films
were deposited by thermal evaporation on glass substrates at film
thickness (126) nm. The optical measurements indicated that
PbxCd1-xSe films have direct optical energy gap. The value of the
energy gap decreases with the increase of Pb content from 1.78 eV to
1.49 eV.

Thirty pregnant albino mice with average body weight of 25-30gm and 8-14 weeks old were used to investigate the toxicity of the oral administration of anticancer methotrexate on kidneys after birth. Pregnant were received (single dose) of drug at different days of gestation and were divided into three groups (10mice / group), control groups were administered distilled water, the two remaining groups were administered by 2.5 and 7.5 mg/kg body weight of methotrexate. The changes in kidneys of newborns revealed significant (p<0.05) decrease in kidneys weights, kidneys lengths, pelvises lengths, and glomeruli diameters. The increase in concentration of methotrexate has increasing significant effect on kidneys of embryo and newborns.

Fifty one patients with serologically confirmed brucellosis and 70 healthy controls were phenotyped for HLA-A, -B, -DR and -DQ antigens by using standard microlympho-cytotoxicity method, and lymphocytes defined by their CD markers (CD3, CD4, CD8 and CD19). The results revealed a significant (Pc = 0.001) increased frequency of HLA-DR8 (41.18 vs. 10.0%) in the patients . A significant increased percentage of CD8+ lymphocytes was also increased in the patients (25.15 vs. 22.0%; P = 0.006), while CD3+ lymphocytes were significantly decreased (75.1 vs. 79.4%; P = 0.02).

     In this work, the mathematical modelling of peristaltic transport for incompressible Sutterby fluid through the cavity between coaxial tubes where the inner tube is fixed and the outer tube has sinusoidal rhythmic fluctuations along the channel’s walls is presented. Under the assumption of long wavelength and the low Reynolds number, the governing equations (motion, temperature, and concentration) are illustrated in cylindrical coordinates. The analytical solution for the temperature and concentration of the fluid flow is obtained using Mathematica 11.3, whereas the perturbation technique is employed to find the closed form of the velocity profile. The variation of the axial velocity, stream function, temperat

The specific activities of the natural radionuclides U-238 and Th-
232 and K-40 in 14 soil samples collected from different sites from
AL-Mustansiriyah university at two depths (topsoil "surface" and
20cm depth) were be investigated using gamma ray spectrometer
3"x3" NaI(Tl) scintillation detector.
The analysis of the energy spectra of the soil samples show that
these samples have specific activities ranging with (16.08-51.11)
Bq/kg for U-238, (14.79-52.29) Bq/kg for Th-232 and (191.08-
377.64) Bq/kg for K-40, with an average values of 29.37, 34.14 and
289.62 Bq/kg for U-238, Th-232, k-40 respectively. The radiation
hazard parameters of the natural radionuclides; radium equivalent

Abstract

All the economic  units whether productive or service units , strive to achieve specific objectives , their presence and continuity depend on them and the quality of the performance and service present to the society . This units to be able to achieve their objectives , must own basic assets to perform the activities , and apply laws , systems , and instructions , in addition to legal , managerial , and financial authorities . So this units to endeavor maintain this assets , in addition to sound application of laws ,systems . and procedures to enhance their performance . For this purpose arise the role of internal control and internal check in maintenance of assets and sound application of&n
