January 2006 ,Pages 1.0-10.0

Abstract: The effect of dried Ficus carcia leaves and fruit, before fruit maturing stage, (each of concentration 5% and 10%) were studied on the apparent digestibility and growth index of normal rats. These effects were also studied on blood hemoglobin level and its iron content ,and also on the glucose, cholesterol and total protein levels in the serum. 24 male weanling albino rats derived from (wister and Sprague - Dawley) types, with age of (30-35) day, and weight of (36-90) g were used. The rats were divided into six groups according to body weight. The first and fourth groups consumed the control groups, which fed for ten days (experimental period) the ideal diet only. The second, third, fifth and sixth groups were fed respectively : ideal diet plus 5% dried leaves, ideal diet plus 10% dried leaves, ideal diet plus 5% dried fruit and ideal diet plus 10% dried fruit. The statistical results showed a significant increasing in apparent digestibility of groups 5 & 6 that fed on 5% and 10% dried figue fruit respectively compared with the control group (PO.05) while insignificant differences was showed in growth index of all animals groups that fed on dried leaves or fruit, compared with the control groups. The results showed a significant increasing in the hemoglobin amount and its iron of group that fed on 10% dried figue leaves compared with the control group (PO.05). It was showed also a significant decreased in glucose level of groups 5 and 6 that fed on 5% and 10% dried fruit respectively, compared with the control group (PO.05). Also, showed a significant decreased in cholesterol level of group 2 and 6 that fed on 5% and 1.0% of dried leaves and fruit respectively, compared with the control groups (PO.05). A significant increasing also showed in the total protein level of groups 2 and 3 that fed on 5% and 10 % dried figue leaves respectively, compared with control group (PO.05),

S.K. AL- Hakary, M. Saffo, F.M Al-Badrani (Author)
January 2006 ,Pages 53.0-64.0

Abstract: In the present paper, the transport coefficients (drift velocity, mobility, and density of electron) in a positive column with an axial magnetic field of (0-6.5G) are calculated for Nitrogen plasma at different gas pressures between (0.2-5torr) with different electric discharge currents. The results show that both density and mobility of the electron increases with the increasing an axial magnetic field, contrary to that, drift velocity of electrons due to that increases of an axial magnetic field. This is a result of magnetic field confinement. This is due to the magnetic field confinement. These results show a good agreement with the previous studies (Ferreira and Ricard [12].

January 2006 ,Pages 102.0-113.0

Abstract: In this paper we present a theoretical framework and numerical comparisons for a wavelet-based algorithm associated with both method of lines and wavelets for solving some partial differential equations. In particular, we consider a wavelet-based algorithm using Method of Lines (MOL) analysis. The advantage is in the simplicity of the boundary modification, and relatively simple and small representing the differential operators, in contrast to other wavelet-based algorithms. The time of calculations and number of flops were reduced using Haar wavelets, and as a demonstration, an example for solving the diffusion equation. Key words: Method of Lines, partial differential equations, Haar wavelet

Abstract: The aim of present study was to study the effect of low and high dose of oxytetracycline on some biochemical profiles and hematological values in fatting calves. The study comprised 20 animals which were subdivided into two groups according to the dose of oxytetracycline that injected intramuscularly (i.m.). the first group was injected by a low dose of 10 mg/kg body weight (B.W), while the second group with a high dose of 20mg/kg B.W, once a day for sequence 3 days. Blood samples were drawn before injection and after 2,5,12, and 24 hours of injection. Serum glucose, cholesterol urea, and hemoglobin (Hb) levels and packed cell volume (PCV) were measured. There was no significant effects of low dose on all investigations while high dose exhibits a significant effects on all parameters especially on third day of injection.

Abstract: Sesame seeds were sown in pots contaminated with the root rot disease phathogens Pythium aphanidermatum, Fusarium solani, Macrophomina phaseolina,and supplemented with potassium, phosphorus or borax.These fertilizers considerably reduced the percentages and severity of infection of the seedlings with pre-and post-emergence damping off disease as compared to unfertilized pots. Moreover,The fertilizers also reduced the development of the root rot disease as scored four months after planting. This protective effect of fertilizers was most noticeable in plants treated with borax. Phpsphorous came second and potassium was third.

Abstract: In this paper, we generalized the Jewell-Sinclair theorem to include not only associative Banach algebra but also the nonassociative Banach algebra. Our methods in extend Jewell-Sinclair theorem is based on the theory of multiplication algebra of an arbitrary algebra and another techniques, which is the standard method in the nonassociative context in the Spanish school. Furthermore, we give as an application example of our generalization for the Jewell-Sinclair theorem the well-known result proved by Rodriguez that assert the automatic continuity of a surjective homomorphisim on a nonassociative f f*- algebras, Our proof is based on essence the same lines of Rodriguez proof.

After the specification of the efficacy of Chines manuscript and the range of compatibility of application. In addition to the treatment and protective procedures before pregnancy is to specify the masculine sex of the infant. The sample size includes (65) infants to apply the first method on the treatment and protective procedures are followed before the perception. The second method is followed on (1487) infants in AL-Batool Hospital in order to diagnose the Chines manuscript and to design the mentioned schedule. The research team states that, the Chines manuscript is successful, after using the investigations, a clinical experiment, theoretical and practical tests on medicine exceed (85 %). The team reached into two methods to specify the infant sex before the perception with a high percentage (100 %) via parametric and non-parametric tests as well as some predictive sample to design the mentioned schedule.
