Abstract

This survey includes proven analysis of polluted soils of Kirkuk crude oil for three sites in Baiji refineries trying to know
the bacterial species which are responsible on biodegradation and it’s quantity on the crude oil.
Samples of polluted soils were collected with the control samples for four seasons during 2002 and 2003 and they were
analyzed. The survey indicates the following:
1-Adecreasing of pollution ratio was happened by the time where the ratio of the biodegradation during the four seasons
starting from winter 2002 to Autumn 2003 was 18.5 %
2-Adifference among the isolated bacterial species and that was according to the temperature degrees which were used in
incubation of soil samples. Acinetobacter SPP was the predominant during the four degrees of incubation.
3-Flavimonis oryzihabitans makes the biggest biodegradation when the sample was incubating on 20C° where the ratio

Abstract

Background: Type I hypersensitivity can express itself for example, as allergic rhinitis; bronchial asthma .The
prevalence of allergy is affected by age, sex, race and seasonal variation. The aim: The present study was under taken to
identify the most common allergen in which patients are sensitive to, and to find the relationship between age, sex and
allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma. Methodology: Retrospective study was conducted at Allergy and Asthma Centre
in Kirkuk. Information from dossiers has been taken as sex, age, diagnosis state (allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma)
and types of allergens in which the patients were sensitive to them. Results: The prevalence of type I hypersensitivity
was (40.5%) in male and (59.5%) in females. Perennial type was higher than seasonal. The types of hypersensitivity in
this research were less common among (6- 15) years age group than age groups (16-30) and >30 years. The results
showed that incidence of seasonal allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma was less common than perennial. House dust
(HD) and house dust mite (HDM) most common causative allergens in perennial allergic rhinitis while in the seasonal
allergic rhinitis was house dust and grass. Conclusion: Incidence of allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma among age

Comparison Between Two Schemes Of Web Site Design

Pages: 18-22 English

Full Text Issues

Abstract

This study is concerned with two design schemes of the web site of Al-Salam Hospital at Mosul city, northern Iraq.
Two schemes based on PHP and HTML languages and JavaScript and HTML languages are employed for the design of
site(1) and site(2) respectively. The two sites are compared on the basis of loading time and validation of the web site
pages. Experiments are assembled to the purpose.
Page loading experiments show relative decrease in measured time on repetition of loading of each selected page and
with decrease in speed of internet line (160,64,40 Kbps). Page loading to site(1) is faster than loading to site(2), and the
loading time to both sites are significantly correlated ( r=0.94), however, loading time to each site are insignificantly
correlated ( r<0.2) with theoretical loading time.
Calculation of ( r ) for separate sets of data shows similar factors affecting the time of page loading to both sites.
Image size determines the time of page loading at line speed, of 40 Kbps, where as, at speed of 64 and 160 Kbps, the
influence of page size on page loading time is prevailed.
Validation experiments shows that improper filling of name , age and e-mail produce error in site(2) while site(1) accept
incorrect filling.
Due to the fact that the designed sites are informational and humanitarian ones, it is expected that name, age and e-mail
are properly filled. Therefore, preference of the design scheme of site(1) based on PHP and HTML languages is
concluded.
Keywords: Web site design, design schemes comparison, loading time experiments, validity experiment, influential
factors of loading time and validity

Abstract

The goal of this study, is to use Mask Technique and Center Detection for developmental dysplasia of the Hip (DDH)
diagnosis [7] which aims at calculating center and diameter of Head of Femur to diagnose some of the effects of
Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) on the hip joint.
This study uses the Mask Technique and Center detection to complete the calculation of the acetabular angle and the
distance of the head of femur from acetabulum. These two new criteria give the doctor very valuable information in the
diagnosis of DDH and its degree.
An algorithm is designed to do the following steps:
1.Exploring the details of the X-Ray and cutting out the necessary parts (acetabular bone and head of femur) for the
desired side (right or left) instead of using the complete image.
2.Enhance the cropped parts by using Contrast linear stretching, Median filter and Canny edge detection.
3. Search for the center of the head of femur and calculate its diameter.
4.Measure the angle of acetabular bone and measure the distance from head of femur to acetabular bone.
At last the features are extracted (Center of head of femur, Intensity value of the center, Diameter of head of femur,
angle of acetabulum and distance from head of femur to the acetabulum, place in acetabulum bone). We applied this
system in computer using Matlab 7.0 programming Langue

Abstract

Oxidative stress may be a key feature, and hence important determinant of blood serum of brain tumor patients. To
investigate this, we determined some antioxidants status [albumin, uric acid, glutathione, ceruloplasmin, nitric oxide,
and superoxide dismutase activity (SOD) and lipid peroxidation status {malondialdehyde (MDA}] in a blood serum of
(31) patients with different types of brain tumor. A follow-up study was done with (25) post operative patients. On
comparison with blood serum from normal individuals, albumin was significantly decrease while uric acid, nitric oxide
and malondialdehyde were significantly increase. Glutathione and superoxide dismutase were decreased, but the
decrease was statistically insignificant. Ceruloplasmin levels remained in the normal range. In a comparative study of
pre operative and post operative cases, serum albumin and malondialdehyde levels in post operative brain tumor
patients were significantly increase, while the uric acid was significantly decrease than those in the pre operative state.
There was no significantly difference in the serum level of glutathione, ceruloplasmin, nitric oxide and in the activity of
(SOD). The conclusion of the present study showed that the brain tumor patients which have a compromised
antioxidant status before surgery and it remains poor for one month following the operation.

Abstract

A number of 265 sample taken from patients in this hospital and other patients who consult the clinics in it had been
gathered from TIKRIT General Educational Hospital . . The samples were taken for the patients whom doctors thought
them infected with Urinary Tract Infections , Wound & Burn Infections and Mid- ear Infections for males and females
in varied ages during the period from the beginning of December 2006 till the beginning ofMarch2007.
Isolates diagnosed depending on of the morphological criteria cultural and morphological and biochemical test and API
Staph Ident system test . The results revealed 60% Coagulase negative Staphylococci , which shows 27 isolates (45% )
regards S. epidermidis , 13 isolates (21.66%) S. saprophyticus , 10 isolates (16.67%) S. xylosus , 3 isolates (5%) S.
lentus ,two isolates (3.33%) S. heamolyticus and one isolate (1.67%) S. simulans and other one isolate of S. hominis .
The research has chosen 13 types of the antibiotics concerning sensitivity tests which show that most effective
antibiotic against the isolates covered by this study is Nitrofurantoin (95.83%) , then Amikacin (93.33%) , Novobiocin
90.83%) , Chloramphenicol (88.33%) , Rifampicin (79.16%) , Vancomycin (75.83%) , Ciprofloxacin (74.16%) ,
Clindamycin (72.5%) , Gentamycin (61.66%) , Penicillin G (49.16%) , Trimethoprim (49.16%) , Tetracycline (40%)
and Cefoxitin (17.5%) .The research made a test for producing β-lactamase enzymes , that show 85% of isolates (of this
study) were positive to this test because β-lactamase enzyme is one of the significant enzyme which are produced by
bacteria since it improves the resistance of bacteria for antibiotic

Abstract

The antidiabetic activity of Citrullus colocynthis is still unclear. The present investigation was conducted as an attempt
to evaluate the effect of Citrullus colocynthis seeds in serum glucose level for normal and diabetic rats.
Results were indicated that an treatment with a powder of the seeds of Citrullus colocynthis as a water suspension orally
for four weeks daily with the concentrations (100, 200, 300 mg/kg of body weight) produced non significant decreasing
in the level of serum glucose of normal rats, but the concentrations (300 and 600mg/kg of body weight) when given to
induced – diabetic rats were showed a significant decrease in the level of serum glucose.
The results obtained from this study suggest that the water suspension of Citrullus colocynthis seeds may be used for
the treatment of diabetes mellitus after the sure that there is no side effects for it.

Abstract

This study included the evaluation of resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to the Phagocytic activity of the
Phagocytes which was isolated from laboratory mice BALB-C mice, The results showed the resistance of bacteria to
Phagocytosis during the different time of incubation, the number of bacterial cells increased after treatment with
Phagocytic cells with increasing the incubation Period .
To study the effect of antibiotic (Ampcillin) which was considered to have low effect of this bacterum on the
Phagocytic activity ,this antibiotic was used in two different concentrations (125,250)mg\ml ,the result showed that the
concentration (250) mg\ml showed good activity in increasing the Phagocytic activity with increasing the incubation
time as it inactivates the whole number of bacteria as the number decrease to(zero) after 120 min of incubatio

Abstract

The research was conducted by isolation of peroxidase from cabbage (Brassica oleracea Var. capitate L) using different
biochemical techniques.
It was shown that using gel filtration chromatography on sephadex G-75, the solution of proteinous precipitate produced
by ammonium sulphate saturation contains two proteinous peaks. The first peak obtained maximum specific activity
(24) folds of purification while the second peak obtained minimum specific activity
Further more the comparative molecular weight of partially purified peroxidase (first proteinous peak) using gel
filtration was found to be (40000+2000) Dalton.
The research was also concerned with determination the optimum conditions of peroxidase as maximum activity was
obtained by using sodium phosphate buffer (100mM) at PH(7.0) with optimum temperature (50)C,the incubation time
was one minute and the[s] was (20)mM by using linweaver-Burk plot was found that the Vmax and Km have the
values of (0.4) µmol /ml /min of proteinous solution and (11.0- 11.5)mM respectively
The results also indicated that the activity of enzyme decreased gradually to 63% and 55% when the enzyme stored for
(28) day at 4C and 30-35C respectively

Abstract

The means and standard deviations of the body weight and eight biochemical parameters of the umbilical cord blood
serum were determined for 30 (15 males and 15 females) healthy neonates. The means were (110.40  17.29) nmol/L
for thyroxine (T4) hormone; (5.751.45) mU/L for thyrotropin (TSH), (41.00  6.40) mg/dl for glucose, (4.72  0.93)
mg/dl for uric acid and (2.73  0.16) Kg body weigh. The activity of the enzymes alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate
transaminase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) on the other hand, were
(8.572.14),(20.21 7.88), (117.58  28.64) and (184.00  26.43) IU/L respectively. None of these parameters was
affected by sex except the ALP which was a little bit higher in males (129 31.01) IU/L than in females (104.62 
20.32) IU/L. Correlation analysis between pairs of parameters revealed a positive significant association between T4 and
TSH (r=0.590); between TSH and glucose (r=0.539) and between the body weight and glucose (r=0.576). These
significant correlations support what was expected for a relation between these hormones and the other biochemical
parameters starting from birth and lasting for rest of lif

Abstract

The study was carried out on 500 patients clinically diagnosed as typhoid and Paratyphoid fever from Private clinical
Laboratories in Mosul city between 2005 December until September 2006 from both sexes with age range between ( 12
– 70 ) average ( 28.06 ± S.D )
The results revealed that Salmonella typhi O was a dominant serotyping with Percentage 94.1% in males and 96.9% in
females using standard tube salmonella agglutination test ( SAT ) .
But the Salmonella typhi H was a dominant serotyping with 35.2% in males and 15.1% in females when 2-
mercaptoethanol salmonella agglutination test (2ME – SAT) was used.
Using 2ME is a favorite from that of standard agglutination method to assess the treatment with antibiotics and the
Negative result of 2ME is strong evidence against diagnosis of chronic infection
