L-Carnitine (LC) is highly concentrated in the epididymis and plays a crucial role in sperm metabolism and maturation.
They are related to sperm motility and have antioxidant properties. The objective of this review is to summarize the multiple roles played by LC in male reproduction, and to highlight their limitations as well as their benefits in the treatment of male infertility. A variety of studies support the conclusion that LC at total daily amounts of at least 500mg per day can significantly improve both sperm concentration and total sperm counts among men with astheno – or oligoasthenozoospermia. Although many clinical trials have demonstrated the beneficial effects of LC in selected cases of male infertility.
Additional, a well – designed study is necessary to further validate the use of carnitines in the treatment of patients with male infertility, specifically in men with poor semen quality .

This study investigated the optical and structural properties of the (ZnO) membrane, which is prepared by the method of thermal steaming in the vacuum by using the closed oven on glass platforms at room temperature. The crystallization of the membranes prepared by X-ray diffraction pattern was diagnosed. The membranes were found to be polymorphic with hexagonal structure and crystal direction (002), the membranes were annealed for (5,15,25) min at (510°C),the results showed the increased height of peaks with their intensity and decreases in the optical gap energy. The study of optical properties also included the recording of both the absorption spectra and the permeability spectrum of the prepared membranes at the wavelength range (250-1100) nm, Also, the rest of the optical constants were calculated as functions of the photon energy, including (absorption coefficient, extinaction cofficient), Where the value of the absorption coefficient for ZnO thin films varies from (1.4 cm-1 to 2.09cm-1), and the value of extinaction coefficient varies from (0.6 to 0.38). Transmission spectra showed highly transparent films with band gap energy varies ranging from 3.47ev to 3.3 eV.

The optical emission spectrum of produced plasma was studied using pulse laser, where the effect of laser energy at a wavelength of 1064nm was studied on lead oxide that produced by optical emission spectroscopy at different laser energy from 500 to 900 mJ. It was found that the intensity for Pb I and Pb II lines increase with increasing laser energy, but with different ratio, as a result increasing the excitation rate with increasing the number of falling photons. The wave length was recorded at highest laser Energy produced from Pb II which was equal to 666.02 nm. It can be seen that The height of peaks increase with increasing laser energy due to the effect of increasing the Electrical field induced by increasing Electrons density and the temperature of electron (Te) and electron density (ne) increase from 1.222×1018 cm-3 to 1.444×1018 cm-3 with increasing laser energy from 500 to 900 mJ respectively as a result of increasing number of falling photons which lead to increase in the electron density.

superconductor samples with chemical composition (Hg1-xPbxBa2Ca3-yMgyCu O10+δ) were prepared by solid state reaction method.

Use of Surveillance cameras in houses and markets became common, that resulted to minimize theft and make it a difficult task because it let recording and viewing what is going around. The wide application of these cameras, pushed thieves to seek new ways for abolition of the surveillance system and digital recording of events, such as cutting the signal wire between the camera and Digital video recorder or changing the direction of the camera away from the focus spot or damaging the camera or steal the device which means the loss of the recorded media. This paper focuses on such abolitions and fixed it by suggesting a way to notify the administrator immediately and automatically by Email about any violation of the system using MATLAB, which allow fast action by the administrator to fix such tampering. The results show that selecting of threshold equal to two was fair in detecting motion and value of five, in case of changing the camera direction through testing of fast and slow motions.
