Antioxidant and cytotoxic potential of n-butanol fraction of Amaranthus viridis
...Show More Authors

Amaranthus viridis (F. Amaranthaceae), usually known as slender amaranth. It is a multifunctional vegetable that grows in tropical and subtropical areas, sustaining stressful conditions, especially drought, producing a wide array of secondary metabolites: phenolics, terpenes, carotenoids and others, which are responsible for various therapeutic effects.  Aerial parts were defatted with hexane, then the defatted residue was extracted in the Soxhlet using 80 % aqueous ethanol. Ethanolic extract was sequentially and repeatedly partitioned with solvents of different polarities: chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. Then, the n-butanol fraction was hydrolyzed using reflex with 10 % aqueous HCl for 6 hrs. The unhydrolyzed and hydrolyzed n-butanol fractions were subjected to TLC and HPLC. The  HPLC analysis was performed using three different eluents;  eluent one composed of solvents A ( distilled water with 0.1 % glacial acetic acid) and solvent B ( acetonitrile with 0.1 % glacial acetic acid), eluent two, composed of solvent A (methanol: water: formic acid (10 : 88: 2 v/v)) and solvent B ( methanol: water: formic acid (90: 8: 2 v/v)) and eluent three, consisting of methanol and 0.40 % phosphoric acid (49:51, V/V). According to TLC and HPLC results, the intact n-butanol fraction was evaluated for its antioxidant and cytotoxic effects using DPPH and MTT assays. The study revealed the presence of rutin, hyperoside, quercitrin, apigenin and naringenin only before hydrolysis. While gallic, ferulic, syringic, kaempferol, p. p-coumaric, vanillic, salicylic, protocatechuic acid, myricetin, isorhamnetin, luteolin, vanillin, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid and quercetin were detected in both unhydrolyzed and hydrolyzed n-butanol fractions. In the DPPH assay, the intact n-butanol fraction showed slightly higher antioxidant activity than the ascorbic acid standard and a mild cytotoxic effect on the HRT-18 cell line with an IC50 equal to 302 µg/mL. In conclusion, prolonged hydrolysis time adversely affects the phenolic compound levels and a mild cytotoxic effect calls for further tests to confirm the anticancer potential.

The role of irrigation management processes and micronutrient fertilization on parameter of growth and yield of two wheat varieties
...Show More Authors

The experiment was conducted in Al- Mahaweel Research Station in Babel Governorate, Ministry of Agriculture during autumn season 2016-2017 to determine the role of irrigation management processes and micronutrient fertilization in growth and productivity of two varieties of wheat IPA 99 and Al-Rasheed 22 in clay loam soil classified as Typic Torriflovent. The experiment included four irrigation treatments and six fertilization treatments. The experiment was designed under randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. Wheat grain IPA 99 and Al-Rasheed 22 varieties were planted in 23/11/2016 and harvested in 13/5/2017. The amount and periods of irrigation depended on sensors reading of volumetric water content was measured

Effect of Coating Hatching Eggs with Nanoparticles and Carboxymethyl Cellulose and Storage periods on Hatchability and Quality of Hatched Chicks
...Show More Authors

The current research aimed to conducting two experiments to study the effect of coating hatching eggs with nano-titanium dioxide (nano-TiO2) and nano-silica dioxide (nano-SiO2) particles and their mixture with carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) on the characteristics of hatching percentage, embryo growth inside the egg. The study was conducted in the Department of Animal Production, College of Agriculture, Tikrit University for the period from 19/3/2023 to 17/9/2024. It aimed to evaluate the coating of hatching eggs with Nano-TiO2 and Nano-SiO2 particles and their mixture with carboxymethyl cellulose CMC on the qualities of hatching percentage, embryo growth inside the egg, as well as trying to obtain the best and longest storage method for fert

Two new ligands Na2[ H3B (BDIA)].0.05H2O (L1)(BDIA = 1-Boranyl-2,3-
Dihydro-1H-Indol-3-yl)]Acetic Acid and Na3[H2B(BDIA)2].0.3H2O.0.3CH3Ph (L2)
were synthesized by reaction of NaBH4 with indole -3- acetic acid (IAA) . The
coordination properties of ligands were studied with Co(II) , Ni(II) , Cu(II) and
Pt(IV) ions. Characterization and structural aspects of the prepared compounds were
elucidated by 1HNMR, FTIR electronic spectra, magnetic susceptibility, elemental
and metal analysis, thermal analysis (TG & DTG) and conductivity measurements.
The obtained data for metal complexes suggested square planar geometry for
copper complexes, octahedral geometry for nickel and platinium complexes and

The research addresses a fundamental Islamic jurisprudential Purposeful issue, which is (Sharia), and to indicate the impact of this on Islamic jurisprudence, deriving rulings and extracting purposes, and to repel the illusion that this issue is only doctrinal, and clarifying the aspects of similarities and links between them by explaining the origin of deriving the purposes of Islamic Law (Sharia) through the meanings and wisdom learned from the texts and the explanation of the rulings. The rulings of Islamic Law (Sharia) have urged bringing benefits and repelling harms, and that the path to do so is reason and its production. I began the research by defining the purposes of Islamic Law (Sharia), then defining the rule of rational right
