Crude oil is known globally as one of the major causes of environmental pollution. This chemical compound exerts exhausting impacts on cultivable lands and water surfaces, leading to profound damage to agriculture and aquatic life. Over the years, several bioremediation approaches have evolved to manage this pollution problem properly. A phylum of microorganisms known as cyanobacteria offers an efficient alternative to established bioremediation methods. We conducted the present study to investigate the effectiveness of cyanobacteria in eliminating residual total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH). Synechococcus algae treated three concentrations of crude oil (0.6, 1.8, and 3 ppm) over four time periods (on days 3, 6, 9, and 12). The g

     Novel heterocyclic acid-base indicators 8-[3-(phenol)azo] theophylline (PAT) and 8[1-(6-sulfonic acid naphthalene) azo] theophylline (SAT) were synthesized through the reaction between m-amino phenol and 1-amino naphthalene -6-sulfonic acid with sodium nitrite to form the diazonium salt at a temperature 0-5˚C in an acidic medium, then a coupling process between the diazonium salt and theophylline compound to produce pigments at the same temperature while maintaining the PH level at 5-6. This study aims to prepare acid-base indicators based on azo dyes. The structural features of these indicators were examined via elemental analyses [FTIR, UV-Vis, and HNMR] spectroscopies, thermal analysis (TGA), and scanning el

Periodontitis is a common disorder caused by imbalanced plaque biofilms and associated with gradual deterioration of the teeth supporting apparatus. Obesity is documented as a significant health concern and considered a primary risk factor for the progression of many diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes, malignancies, and periodontitis. Proinflammatory cytokines released in response to these health conditions are of great importance and establish the link between diagnosis and treatment. The present study was conducted to assess levels of chemerin and visfatin in saliva and to evaluate the impact of obesity on periodontitis. Ninety participants were included in the study and dived into three groups: (Group I: obese and periodontitis

Sodium thiosulfate (STS) is a possible therapeutic candidate molecule in a range of diseases and drug-induced toxicities due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic capabilities. The current study aimed to find the effective dose of STS in adult male rats given nicotine by evaluating serum MDA and blood partial pressure of oxygen (PO₂) levels. Thirty-six adult male Wistar rats, Rattus norvegicus (weighing 190–220 g) with an age of 3–3.5 months,  were chosen randomly and separated into six equal groups, administered for 28 days. Animals in the control group were administered an intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of normal saline, while those in groups 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 received repeated doses of an

An inherited tendency is necessary for the manifestation of celiac disease (CD), an autoimmune, gluten-sensitive, inflammatory disorder of the small intestine. Gluten, a storage protein in cereals, causes CD. An increase in oxidant compound generation, surpassing the capacity of the endogenous antioxidant system, causes oxidative stress (OS). This study aims to evaluate some oxidants and antioxidants factors in Iraqi females with CD. This hospital-based cross-sectional study at Baghdad Educational Hospital in Baghdad, Iraq, involved 100 female participants of reproductive age. Tests have been measured, such as total oxidants (TOS), total antioxidants (TAS), malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT), nitric oxide (NO), total protein (TP), and
