Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that breaks down primarily hyaluronic acid, thereby disrupting the structural integrity of the extracellular matrix (ECM) found in connective tissues, which is considered a virulence factor. The aim of this research was to study the effect of a plant-active compound (vasicine) that was separated from a plant sample as an inhibitor agent for the hyaluronidase enzyme that was isolated from Staphylococcus aureus, which is considered a virulence factor. 120 samples were randomly isolated from infected burns. The isolates showing highly hydrolyzed zones were identified. Cell growth as well as hyaluronidase activity are measured spectrophotometrically by the turbidity reduction assay. The results showed tha

Ionic liquids (ILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been found to be highly effective as electrolytes in TiO₂ NTAs-graphite cells when combined with additives that enhance conductivity by reducing the viscosity of these liquids. The presence of CaCl₂.6H₂O: Acetamide DES with DI water as an additive resulted in a cell voltage of 1.31V and an internal resistance of 19 ohm. This can be attributed to the concentration and quality of the ionic species. The cells exhibited an interesting response to the AlCl₃-chloroacetamide IL with dichloromethane DCM as an additive, with a cell voltage of 1.81V and an internal resistance of 5.0 ohm. Once again, this is influenced by the quality and concentra

Security plays a vital role in various domains, including blockchain technology. The Blockchain serves as a secure data structure for storing transactional records. Hash functions are employed in cryptography to ensure integrity and authentication within the blockchain. The widely used SHA256 algorithm has faced recent attacks, prompting the development of stronger hash functions. This paper presents a novel modification approach to enhance the performance of SHA256 by introducing an extended mechanism for generating a 288-bit message digest and reducing the number of rounds to 44 instead of 64 while preserving the diffusion of data through its complex iterative process, which involves multiple rounds of bitwise and logical operations.

A series of novel pyrazoline derivatives 5-13 were synthesized in three steps from isatin, with yields ranging from 40 to 72% over the multistep procedure. The first step included the condensation of isatin with p-aminoacetophenone to afford the corresponding Schiff base 1 in a 75% yield. In the second step, the enolate form of Schiff base 1 was reacted with different aromatic aldehydes (benzaldehyde, p-nitrobenzaldehyde, and p-chlorobenzaldehyde) to give the title chalcone derivatives 2-4 in 60-72 yields. In the third step, pyrazoline derivatives 5-13<

High antibiotic resistance among Pseudomonas aeruginosa could be viewed as the primary cause of nosocomial infections. In this study, 60 isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated from urine, sputum, burn, ear and wounds swab.

Moreover, molecular detection of MexX and MexY genes was done for MDR isolates.MexY gene was found in all MDR isolates and MexX gene was detected in 2

Results of the current study demonstratedthat out of eighty-three isolatesof Pseudomonas aeruginosa,only twenty-five isolateswere resistant to five different antibiotics (of different classes) that were consequentlyconsideredmultidrug resistant isolates.These isolates developed variable susceptibility toward Eucalyptuscamaldulensisleavesoil (ECO). GC-MS analysis of ECOrevealed that the aromatic oil eugenol is the major constituent.However, the most frequent MIC was 0.39 µg/ml, while the lowest frequent MIC was 3.125 µg/ml.Moreover, this oil at ½ MIC (0.195µg/ml) increased the gene expression of exoU. Itis concluded from the outcomes of the studythat ECOmay cause severe damagewhen used to treat infections ca

The lightweight block cipher is an encryption technique with negligible computational overhead. Despite its advantages, it faces a substantial challenge. Correct handwriting of the script code for the cipher scheme is a challenge for programmers. In this research, we suggest a new graphical domain-specific modeling language to make it easier for both non-technical users and domain specialists to implement lightweight block cipher schemes. The proposed language, called LWBCLang, is a modular and extensible language that offers graphical components for constructing three essential types of inner block cipher structures. Seven different methods of keystream generation and all the tests of the NIST suite with performance analysis are provide

In this article, two-dimensional unsteady incompressible viscous nanofluids magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) flow among two parallel plates extended infinitely is investigated. The equations that results from the use of similarity transformations for non-linear partial differential system are solved by the new algorithm.

Although deep learning-based object detection has produced excellent performance, there are still many issues with images from real-world capture, including rotating jitter, blurring, and noise deletion. The impact of these issues on object detection is significant. The main goal of this paper is to develop a real-time “You Only Look Once” (YOLOv3) algorithm to detect traffic signs. Compared to all other object detection algorithms, the YOLO method has a number of benefits. In contrast to different algorithms, YOLO looks at the image entirely by making predictions of the bounding boxes utilizing a convolutional neural network (CNN), determining the probability of each class for these boxes, and detecting the image more quickly. The p

This article presents the theoretical analysis of the nonlinear behavior of the blood flow through an angled arterial segment with overlapping stenosis. A mathematically created time-variant stenosis emerges from the formation of arterial narrowing brought on by atheroma. An elastic cylindrical tube with a moving wall is used to represent the artery, and the Casson liquid is used to simulate blood that flows through it. The nonlinear elements that arise in the equations, govern blood flow are taken  into account.  The impact of the pulsatile pressure gradient that caused by the regular heartbeat on the flow process in the stenosed artery is demonstrated  mathematically. By employing the boundary conditions, the present analytical tech

With the enormous growth and advancement of the computer industry, it is critically necessary to transmit a large amount of encrypted multimedia data to prevent third parties from attacking one's privacy or misbehaving. This study proposes a new encryption strategy for preserving original images. It is highly effective and has been shown to be resilient against impulsive noise and loss of data. At first, some random data is entered within the perimeter of the image. Then, three rounds of high-speed scrambling and adaptive diffusion for pixels are carried out to mix the contiguous pixels at random and distribute the newly placed data throughout the image. The suggested encryption method can be used to encrypt original images in any form o

The experimental results are on high-efficiency optimization functions with various dimensions. The hybrid algorithm produces good, encouraging, and better outcomes than the original algorithms. The results show that the proposed algorithm

A graph  with  vertices and  edges is said to be antimagic if its edges can be labeled with  such that the weights of vertices of  are pairwise distinct. The graceful labeling of a graph  with  edges is an assignment of integers from the set  to the vertices of , such that no two vertices receive the same label, where each edge is assigned the absolute value of the difference between the labels of its end vertices and the resulting edge labeling runs from  to  is inclusive. Moreover, if the induced edge labeling is simultaneously antimagic, that is, the sums of the labels of all edges incident to a given vertex are pairwise distinct for different vertices, we call the graceful labeling graceful antimagic. In this study, we will

     We introduce a new flexible distribution four-parameter which is called [0,1]Truncated Exponentiated Exponential Burr type X distribution ([0,1] TEE-BX). Using binomial series expansion and exponential expansion, the new distribution is expanded by four parameters. We derive moments, moment generating function, quantile function, order statistics and the Rényi entropy. The maximum likelihood estimation  method  is used to estimate the parameters of the proposed TEE-BX model [0,1]. Finally, using two real-world data sets, the performance of the [0,1] TEE-BX distribution is explored. Based on the certain goodness of fit criteria, we conclude that the [0,1] TEE-BX distribution has a better fit than the other distributions.

Drought is one of the challenges Iraq faced during this period, and the negative environmental effects that are apparent due to climate change have become essential topics that attracted the attention of urban planners.
