DOI: 10.33899/edusj.2013.163056

ABSTRACT
Vanadium is recognized worldwide as the most abundant metallic constituent in petroleum, and this led to expect of its existing in natural gas that associated with oil as a trace amount in ppb concentration or less. For capturing the trace amount of vanadium in natural gas we used diluted acidic medium as adsorption collection, and using the collection medium as a sample. Graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) is the analytical method that utilized in this study to determine (nano-partical) of vanadium. The pyrolysis and atomization temperature used were 1100ᵒC and 2700ᵒC , respectively. This procedure allows determination of vanadium with a detection limit about 0.44µg/L and characteristic mass of 67 pg, the calibration graph was linear in the range (40-120)µg/L with correlation coefficient of 0.9980, and the relative standard deviation RSD% was (0.83-6.13). the accuracy of this procedure was confirmed by the determination of vanadium in a newly prepared standard solution as unknown concentration. The range of vanadium amount in natural gas supposed to be from 5-10 ng/L .

DOI: 10.33899/edusj.2013.163069

ABSTRACT
       Asimple, accurate and sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for quantitative determination of bromhexine hydrochloride (BH) in both pure form and in its pharmaceutical preparations. The proposed method is based on the diazotization of BH with sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid medium to form diazonium salt , which is coupled with 2,4,6-trihydroxy benzoic acid in alkaline medium of sodiumHydroxide to form a stable and water-soluble azo dye exhibited absorption maximum at 408 nm against reagent blank. Beer’s law is obeyed over the concentration range of 5 to750 μg of  BH/20 ml with a good determination coefficient ( R2=0.9973) and apparent molar absorptivity 3.053×104 l.mol-1.cm-1. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) are 0.0156 and 0.0520 μg ml−1, respectively. The relative errors and relative standard deviations are found as 0.19 – 1.42 % and ± 0.11 to ± 0.47% respectively, depending on the concentration level. The method is suitable for the determination of BH in the presence of other ingredients that are usually present in dosage forms. The composition of the resulting product has been also worked out and it is found to be (1:1) BH : 2,4,6-tri-hydroxybenzoic acid. This procedure is applied successfully for the analysis of BH in pharmaceutical preparations (tablets, syrup and injection) without prior separation and with acceptable errors.

ABSTRACT:
         The work included the preparation of cobalt complexes having general formula [ CoL] , where L is divalent tetradentate Schiff base ligand derived from benzyl and anthranilic acid or o-aminophenol with 1:2 molar ratio . These complexes reacted with H2O2 in the absence and in the presence of B (B= py , -pic , Pph3) at room temperature to obtain [ CoLO2 ] and [CoLBO2 ] complexes. All the prepared complexes were characterized by metal content analysis , molar conductance , spectral studies including I.R and electronic spectra as well as magnetic measurements. These studies revealed that all the complexes are non-electrolytes. The Schiff base ligands act as dibasic tetradentate ( NNOO-donor) , CoL complexes are square planar containing one unpaired electron. The electronic spectra reveals the oxidation of Co(II) to Co(III) in [CoLO2] and  [CoLBO2] complexes. These complexes show μeff values  related to one unpaired electron , that belongs to O2 mioety , which is supported by (υo-o) band in I.R spectra that related to O2 mioety. Hence superoxo compounds are realy recognized.

ABSTRACT
Spectrophotometric and spectrofluorimetric methods were developed for the determination of cinnarizine and dipyridamole. The spectrophotometric method is based on the formation of ion pair complex  between the studied drugs and eosin Y which shows maximum absorbance at 550 nm in the phthalate buffer (pH3.5) for cinnarazine and 547 nm in citrate buffer (pH3) for dipyridamole. Beerʼs law is obeyed in the concentration ranges of 0.1-8 and  0.1-7 µg/ml with molar absorbitivity values of 4.65×104 and 4.90×104 L.mol-1.cm-1 for cinnarizine and dipyridamole respectively. The spectroflurimetric method is based on the quantitative quenching effect of cinnarizine and dipyridamole on the native fluorescence of eosin Y. The quenching of the fluorescence of eosin Y was measured at 553 nm after excitation at 350 nm. The fluorescence-concentration plot is rectilinear over the ranges of 0.05-5.2 and 0.1-5.0 μg/ml for cinnarizine and dipyridamole respectively. The two proposed methods were successfully applied for the determination of drugs in pharmaceuticals preparations.

ABSTRACT:
Due to the lack of previous studies on the impact of osteoporosis on the incidence of uterine cancer,  and the rapid spread of uterine cancer in recent years all over the world, and the exact mechanism of its occurrence is not entirely clear. The study focused on the possibility of consideration of osteoporosis as a marker to uterine cancer by study the relationship between osteoporosis and uterine cancer through the measurement of both Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu) and Manganese (Mn) which operate inside the body as antioxidation when its linked with enzymes, which affect the bone density and their impact on the incidence of uterine cancer. The study involved collecting samples from hospitals in Mosul , women without uterine cancer as the control group and divided into two groups (44 women with good health and 38 women diagnosed as osteoporosis only). And patients women also divided to the two groups did not receive any treatment (43 with uterine cancer only and 58 women with osteoporosis and uterine cancer). Each patient was evaluated clinically and then was estimated Zinc, Copper and Manganese in serum using atomic absorption spectroscopy technique as well as appreciation of  both estrogen and progesterone in the serum. The results showed that osteoporosis may increase the incidence of uterine cancer through hormonal changes and the concentration of antioxidants and their impact on the bone-building and thus its impact on the amount of free radicals in the body which cause increase the likelihood of uterine cancer  before and after menopause. Accordingly, the study showed that osteoporosis is a new risk factors increase the likelihood of uterine cancer. Accordingly, women should pay attention to bone health by maintaining the concentration of antioxidant mineral , which includes all of the Zinc, Copper and Manganese, which has a role in bone health and prevent fragility and early diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis to reduce the risk of uterine cancer.

ABSTRACT
        For the preparation of composite materials environ mentally friendly natural nano particle silica derived from rice husks has as streng thening of Iraqi natural materials in a ratio of(2, 4, 6, 8%) on the poly esterres in body and poly (styrene-co-butadiene) separately. Natural silica was identified using XRD and FTIR by measuring the proportion of SiO2 . AFM device was also used to measure the granular size of the   silica nano particles. And the results of the study consistent with theoretical studies . Results also showed mechanical models composite. That added nano-silica of 6 % to poly esterres in body results are increase the impact resistance values ​​, hardness, and bending rigidity. As in the case of poly (styrene-co-butadiene) composite, the ratio of 2% is the optimized percentage of streng thening, which lead to increased values​​of impact, bending and hardness. these study also showed ability of natural silica  composite mechanical properties to gives resistance to stress conditions during use .

ABSTRACT
         The aim of this research is the preparation of Poly (Methylacrylate) by a free radical initiating process for polymerization methyacrylate using benzoyl peroxide as an intiator at (70°C ) and(10%)   ratio of conversion. Conversion of the ester group of the Poly (Methylacrylate) in to Hydroxamicacid was carried out by treatment of (PMA) with hydroxylaminehydrochloride in alkaline medium at (pH=13) using Sodium Hydroxide. The poly hydroxamic acid was identified by (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Sorption Capacity (qe) of the metal ions (Fe3+ ) , (Cu2+ ),( Ni2+) ,( Co2+) ,( Cr3+),( V3+),( Zn2+),(Al3+)and) Pb2+) by using (PHA) was determined . Also the study showed that there was an effect of initial (pH) and temperature on the sorption capacity of the metal ions ,  by poly Hydroxamic acid.
