Abstract: Abstract A simple spectrophotometric method for the determination of trimethoprim (TMP) in pure form and in its pharmaceutical formulation has been described. The method is based on the reaction of TMP with 2,4-dinitro-1-fluorobenzene reagent (DNFB) in acetone medium to give a highly rosy red colored product with maximum absorption at 538 nm with a molar ratio of 1:1. Beer's law is obeyed in the range 10-75 μg/ml with molar absorptivity of 1.917x103 l.mol-1.cm-1 and Sandell's sensitivity of 0.1514 µg/cm2. Precision (RSD) better than 1.7 % and accuracy (average recovery %) is 100.76 %. The suggested method has been applied to dosage forms as tablets and compared with the pharmacopoeial method, t-test is evaluated and found 1.828 at 95% confidence limit. The results show that there is no interference are present in commercial dosage forms.
Abstract: Abstract This study involved an estimation of the activity of some enzymes such as xanthine oxidase (X.O), acidic and alkaline deoxyribonuclease (DNase), peroxidase and pepsinogen in sera of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) which treated with hemodialysis. Blood samples of 32 patients with chronic renal failure from both sexes were compared with (63) samples taken from healthy individuals as a control group. The results showed a significant increase in the activity of xanthine oxidase, acidic and alkaline DNase and pepsinogen enzyme i Enzymatic Study in Sera of Chronic Renal Failure Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis n serum of patients with CRF before and after hemodialysis compared with control for both sexes. A significant decrease was noted in activity of peroxidase in sera of patients with CRF before and after hemodialysis compared to control group for both sexes. The results also demonstrated that the hemodialysis process caused a significant reduction (P<0.001) in the activity of xanthinoxidase and pepsinogen. No significant effect (P<0.05) for hemodialysis on the reduction of acid DNase and elevation of alkaline DNase levels was noted. Hemodialysis had a significant increase (P<0.001) on peroxidae activity. Furthermore, correlation coefficient between the levels of enzymes in sera of patients before and after hemodialysis were determined.

Abstract: Abstract A square wave voltammetric (S.W.V.) method has been developed for the quantitative analysis of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), sodium nitroprusside gives a peak at (-0.592) volt against the reference electrode (Ag/AgCl/sat KCl) in phosphate buffer (pH= 7.0). A calibration curve was constructed for the range [(0.99 x 10-7-(14.77 x 10-7)]M the method was applied for indirect determination of medicate and tegretol individually via the interaction of SNP with these drugs. So, a calibration curve was constructed by adding appropriate amounts of modecate of the range [(9.84 x 10-11 – 1.360 x 10-9)] M in the presence of (14.77 x 10-6)M SNP. An other calibration curve was constructed by adding appropriate amounts of tegretol of the range [(9.89 x 10-11 – 9.8 x 10-10)] M in the presence of (9.9 x 10-6)M of SNP.
Abstract: Abstract This study has been carried out to assess the effect of folic acid, N-acetyl Cysteine and insulin on some histological parameters in the uterus of alloxan induced diabetic rats and their fetuses. In this study, 192 healthy pregnant rat, whose weight was about 200-350grams were used. The animals were housed under standard laboratory condition (12 h light; 12 h dark at 20-24 C). The animals were given standard rat pellets and tap water ad libtium. Normal female rats mated with normal males, then the first day of gestation were detected through vaginal plug. Diabetes mellitus were induced by a single subcutaneous injection of 100 mg/kg of alloxan. After four days, rats which showed blood glucose of more than 200 mg/dl were considered as alloxan induced diabetic pregnant, and they were distributed to three periods (1-7, 8-14 and 15-22 days) of gestation. Diabetic pregnant rats at each period were divided into eight subgroups groups. First subgroup supplemented with standard diet which represent the negative control, while the rest subgroups were treated with 100mg/kg alloxan. In addition to alloxan, the third subgroup were treated with 250mg/kg folate and 4 I.U. insulin, the subgroup four was daily injected with 7.5mg/kg folate and 4 I.U. insulin, the subgroup five was supplemented with 250mg/kg folate, subgroup six was daily injected with 4 I.U. insulin, subgroup seven was supplemented with 0.1% N-acetyl cysteine and 4 I.U. insulin and the rats of the last group were supplemented with 0.1% N-acetyl cysteine
Abstract: Abstract: The surface brightness profiles of 46 elliptical galaxies, belong to Coma Cluster of galaxies have been fitted by the generalized Sersic r1/n – law for the intermediate radius range . The mean deviations between the adopted model and the surface brightness profiles of the galaxies found to be less than (0.03) mag arcsec-2. The deviation profiles between the observations and the adopted models show that the maximum negative deviation found to be around the reduced radius of 0.86, while the maximum positive deviation were found to be around the reduced radius of 0.96. The crossing points between the adopted models and the observed surface brightness profiles were found to be around the reduced radius 0.65, 0.83 and 1.0.
Abstract: Abstract In this paper we have studied the electron-electron scattering rates in an infinitely deep single quantum well with width (400 ) and for both carrier densities (1 1010 cm-2 and 100 1010 cm-2), we have considered the electron-electron scattering as a function of the initial electron energy with and without screening at all subband carrier-carrier scattering mechanisms.
Abstract: Abstract: A new and effective direct method to determine the numerical solution of non- linear Fredholm-Fredholm integral equations is proposed. The method is based on a series solution for the unknown quantity by Adomian's method. We obtained very good results compared with classic Adomian's method Some numerical examples are provided to illustrate accuracy and computational efficiency of the method.
Abstract: ABSTRACT In this paper, a new adapted optimal step-size is designed to improve the efficiency of pair conjugate method. At each linear search an acceptable step- size is estimated during quadratic interpolation and this estimate is used as an initial trial step-size. The technique needs only additional gradient evaluation at each search direction. Also we have improved Armijo line search technique to be used together with the new optimal stepsize. The numerical results are more efficient than the results of the same method using the classical scheme for the linear search technique.

Abstract: Abstract The effect of Cu(II) ions on the decomposition of organic peroxides produced in the γ-radiolysis of threonine aqueous oxygenated solutions have been studied under various experimental conditions including different pH,s and temperatures. The results obtained indicated that in general, increasing the metal ions lead to increase the decay of organic peroxides. Similar results were observed by increasing temperature. From the observed results, it has been concluded that different types of organic peroxides can be formed depending on the pH of irradiated solutions. i.e, the pattern of.OH radical reactions with threonine are pH dependens. Mechanisims of the decay of formed threonine organic peroxides at different pH conditions were suggested.

Abstract: Abstract This experiment was designed to study the effect treatment with sodium fluoride (200,400 ppm) with drinking water to mother rats during lactation on reproductive efficiency of their male pups at age of 21 days and to know the remaining of these effects on male rats at age of 50 and 90 days. Sodium fluoride (200 & 400 ppm) administration to mother rats with drinking water during lactation caused significant decrease in weights of body, testes, epididymal head, body, tail, prostate and seminal vesicle in their pups at 21 days old. Treatment with sodium floride to mother rats caused significant decrease in weights of the body, epididymal head, body, tail, seminal vesicle, number of sperm, with no significant changes in weights of testes and prostate in male rats at 50 days age. The study showed significant decrease in number of sperm, percentage of live sperm and significant increase in percentage of dead sperm and sperm abnormalities, with non significant changes in weights of body, testes, epididymal head, body, tail, prostate, seminal vesicle in adult male rat at 90 days age from mothers treated with sodium fluoride during lactation. Its concluded from this study that sodium fluoride has negative effects on reproductive efficiency of rat pups at 21 and 50 days age and this effect is less in male rats at 90 days age when their mothers treated with it during lactation.

Abstract: Abstract Since the mid of 1990th, Mosul city over all Iraq cities, is used widely the local power diesel generators. The generators exhaust emits a large amounts of hydrocarbon gases, including, of course, carbon dioxide. In most cases, the Purity of the fuel (gas oil) is below the accepted standard purity. Certainly, the emission of large quantities of such hydrocarbon gases to the atmosphere, play an important role in contributing to global warming. Therefore, a significant bad side-effects influence Mosul city thermal balance and climate changes. Because the studied area is surrounded by Hills and highlands, therefore this topographic terrain leads to the precipitation of the exhaust generator output pollutants within the city air space, and leads to increase climate change which is reduce the green area proportion (i. e.; increasing the dryland spaces). Unfortunately, large proportions of local forest trees in the studied area, have been subjected to logging operations by citizens under the current circumstances for use as fuel. In this study, some treatments have been suggested to reduce further pollution emitting from the diesel generators. The aim is to reduce their negative effects on the environment, human health and land use. GIS software have been adopted in the current study (Global Mapper9, ArcGIS9.1) process and analyze the DEM data of the studied area with respect to satellite image to show the topographical features of the area and the location of the generators. GIS software also have been applied in the georeferncing process of the adopted remote sensing data. The descriptive approach has been adopted in the completion stages of the study in addition to the available data
Abstract: Abstract This paper construed to study the important optical properties of Zamzam water, optical absorption and transmission had been studied at different wavelengths (300 – 800) nm, the refraction index was determined at 589.8 nm, another important optical properties had been also calculated such as specific refraction, reflectance, finesse coefficient, permittivity and polarizability per unit volume, the paper also study important properties that is PH and ppm. All of these were compared with three samples of water which are; tap water, distilled water and magnetic water which has been prepared by an electrical coil of 200 Gausses. The results show that the optical absorption of Zamzam water is the largest compared with other sample at different wavelengths, specially at 5000 nm, and the transmission is the smallest, on the other hand the refractive index of Zamzam water is 1.3345 at 589.8 nm that is the largest compared with other sample, the PH for Zamzam water is 6.55 and ppm is 186. It has been concluded that Zamzam water has special optical properties compared with other sample. This lead to the possibility to use Zamzam water as an optical liquid which has unusual properties.
