Low Temperature Novel Photosynthesis Method and Characterization of ZnO/CuO Nano composit
Written by Zaid Hamid Mahmoud   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
Metallic oxides have been largely taken into consideration due to the prospect of modelling the properties of these materials for different applications. The ZnO/CuO nanocomposites were successfully synthesized using photolysis method. The product characterized using XRD, SEM, EDXS, PSA and PL techniques and all the obtained results prepared pure nanoparticles. The calculation of the percentage ratio for metals in compounds was done using EDXS, and the obtained results demonstrated that the Zn r

Simultaneous Estimation of Chlorpromazine hydrochloride and Carvedilol in Bulk and Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms Using HPLC
Written by Sahar Rihan Fadhel   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
A simple, rapid and accurate HPLC method was developed and assessed for the simultaneous estimation of Chlorpromazine hydrochloride and Carvedilol in its bulk and Pharmaceutical tablets. The separation was obtained by using C18 ec (250 × 4.6 mm, 5μm) column with a mobile phase composing of acetonitrile: deionized water (50: 50 v/v, pH adjusted to 3.6 ± 0.03 with acetic acid) at flow rate of 1.5 mL.min-1. The detection was carried out at 237nm, the retention time of CLO, and CARs were 1.56 and 3.

Corrosion Prevention of Aluminum in Acidic Media Using Cydonia Vulgaris Leaves Extract as Environmentally Friendly Corrosion Inhibitor
Written by Zahraa M. Awad   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
Corrosion inhibition of aluminum i(1 M H₃ PO₄)n was investigated in absence and presence of Cydonia Vulgaris leaves (CVL) extracts as friendly corrosion inhibitors. The effect of temperature and inhibitor concentration at immersion time of (3h) was studied using weight loss method. The obtained results revealed that Cydonia Vulgaris leaves(CVL) extracts inhibited aluminum in (H₂ PO₄) and decreased the rate of corrosion. By increasing the concentration and temperature of the inhibitor, its effici

Adsorption of Lead (II) Ions on Rejuvenated NIMo/γAl2O3 Spent Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst
Written by Aseel Jamal Ahmed   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
Spent NiMo/γA₂O₃ hydrodesulfurization catalyst was regevenated using n-hexane to remove the soluble coke and the oxalic acid to remove the foulant elements and insoluble coke by calcinating it at under the temperature of 500οC for 4 hr. It was then structurally charactrized using AFM techniques, and finally, the lead ion was separated from its aquoues solution via the adsorption batch method with varying concentrations of the lead ions, and then, the absorption efficiency was calculated. The res

The Use of Plasma Apelin Alteration in Diagnosis of Atherosclerosis
Written by Abdullah Muhsin Hazbar   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
Apelin is a bioactive peptide. Apelin and its receptor APJ are widely distributed in different cell tissues, and involved in a wide range of functions in the cardiovascular system. In this study we investigated whether plasma apelin and some other parameters of coronary artery diseases (lipid profile, creatinine kinase "CK-MB", lactate dehydrogenase "LDH", Troponin T "Tn-T", and High Sensitivity C-reactive protein "hs-CRP") levels were altered in plasma of normal and atherosclerotic subjects. We

Association of Growth Hormone Gene Polymorphism with Birth and Weaning Weight of Nuimi and Awassi Sheep at Kerbala Province
Written by Fatima Abd Al-Muhsen   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
A study was conducted at Barakat Abul- Fadhul Station located in Kerbala province for Sheep Production on a total of 63 pregnant ewes from two local breeds (36 Nuimi and 27 Awassi) to find out the association of growth hormone gene polymorphism with the body weight performance of lambs at two stages of life, birth and weaning stages. Polymerase Chain Reaction–Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique was used to detect polymorphism of growth hormone gene by using restriction

Adsorption of Orange G Dye from Aqueous Solutions Using Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles
Written by Amir Fahdil   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
Magnesium Oxide (MnO₂) nanoparticles were synthesized by Hydrothermal method. The synthesized samples were characterized using FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, AFM, and SEM. The adsorption of Orange G dye from aqueous solution onto MnO₂ as an adsorbent by batch method, under various experimental conditions including exposure time, MnO₂ dosage, pH, temperature, and initial Orange G dye concentration was investigated. Adsorption isotherms were used to test the adsorption data for Langmuir, Freundlich, Du

Effective Adsorption of Azure B Dye from Aqueous Solution Using Snail Shell Powder
Written by Hanadi K.Ibrahim   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
Azure B dye was removed by using snail shell (Rostellaria) Powder as an adsorbent. A series of experiments was done in a batch adsorption technique to examine the effects of the process variables i.e. concentration, initial pH, temperature and absorbent dose .Optimal state adsorption of Azure B was realized at the weight of 0.02 g of adsorbent, 7.00 mg/L of dye concentration, 20 minutes as the contact time, and the temperature of 298 K. The removal data using Freundlich, Langmuir and Temkin mode

The Relationship between Spiritual Intelligence and Depression in Parents of Children with Cancer
Written by Sajjad Rezavandi   Published On Issue 3 Vol 9, 2018
Introduction:  Cancer in a family member can be a major source of psychological disorders, especially for the parents of children who are diagnosed with this disease. In recent years, the concept of intelligence has not only been considered as a cognitive power but also extended to other areas such as spiritual intelligence. This study aims to determine the correlation between spiritual intelligence and depression in parents of children who are suffering from cancer. Research Methodology: T
