The study included the collection of samples of raw cow milk to isolate Leuconostoc bacteria, samples were sub cultured on De-Man Rogosa Sharpe-Vancomycin medium, the pure colonies were selected and subjected to the cultural and microscopically tests, according to that 25 cocci bacterial isolates were obtained, then isolates were subjected to biochemical tests. Result of tests showed that 12 isolates belong to the genus Leuconostoc out of 25 cocci bacterial isolates, Vitek2 system was used as a supplementary step. Results of final identification showed that 3 sub species were obtained included Leuconostoc mesenteroides ssp. cremoris 9 out of 12 isolates, while it was 2 isolates of Leuconostoc mesenteroides ssp. mesenteroides and one isolate Leuconostoc mesenteroides ssp. dextranicum. The study included the collection of 15 isolate of diarrhea causative bacteria which subjected to cultural and microscopically, biochemical tests and Vitek 2 system, about the results of identification, 9 isolates out of 15 isolates belonged to Escherichia coli,3 isolates of Shigellagroup,2 isolates of Salmonella ser. paratyphi A and one isolate of Vibrio cholerae, the selected isolates were tested to Antibiotic sensitivity test against 11 antibiotics, the results showed that all isolates were resistant to Ampicillin and sensitive to Imipeneme. Screening of L. mesenteroides ssp. cremoris isolates was done to select the more efficient isolate producing bacteriocin by using well diffusion method, the result showed that L. mesenteroides ssp. cremoris (Lc3) and L. mesenteroides ssp. cremoris (Lc4) isolates gave the highest inhibition against E. coli, Shigella group, Salmonella ser. paratyphi A and Vibrio cholerae, the diameters were 13, 12, 12 and 12 mm respectively for the L. mesenteroides ssp. cremoris (Lc3) isolate, while the L. mesenteroides ssp. cremoris (Lc4) isolate diameters were 13, 12, 12 and 11mm respectively. The synergistic effect between bacteriocin of both isolates L. mesenteroides ssp. cremoris (Lc3) and L. mesenteroides ssp. cremoris (Lc4) with antibiotics was studied against multidrug resistant diarrhea causative bacteria. Synergistic effect between bacteriocin of both isolates with antibiotics was observed. The activity of antibiotics with bacteriocin was increased, like Cefixime, Tetracycline, Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, Ampicillin antibiotics against E. coli, and Cefotaxime, Ceftriaxone, Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, Cefixime antibiotics against Shigella group, and Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole antibiotic against Salmonella ser. paratyphi A and Ampicillin, Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, Cefixime antibiotics against Vibrio cholerae.
The liability limit liability limit and reinsurance re factors insurance are important in influencing the achievement of company's competitive goals and achieve success and excellence in the market and because the limit of liability and reinsurance aimed to increase output with the stability of inputs leading to increased insurance business and increase profits. The study was based on two variables presidents interact with each other to form the intellectual and philosophical framework has two ( the limit of liability and reinsurance ) . The study was launched from a problem expressed by a number of targeted questions answered from the elucidation of theoretical philosophy and intellectual goals of these variables and highlight the impor

Show MoreThe research illustrated that the theory of constraints is "A group of concepts and basics that aim at helping the management in order to determine the difficulties and how to overcome these difficulties through determining the necessary change and how these change can be done efficiently and effectively ".
The research showed that the theory of constraint including its tools calls for magnifying throughput, constricting the product cycle , determining the optimal production mix , utilization of scare resources and canceling the idle time , that achieving throughput increasing then increasing profit .

Show MoreThe Iraqi marshes are considered the most extensive wetland ecosystem in the Middle East and are located in the middle and lower basin of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers which create a wetlands network and comprise some shallow freshwater lakes that seasonally swamped floodplains. Al-Hawizeh marsh is a major marsh located east of Tigris River south of Iraq. This study aims to assess water quality through water quality index (WQI) and predict Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) concentrations in Al-Hawizeh marsh based on artificial neural network (ANN). Results showed that the WQI was more than 300 for years 2013 and 2014 (Water is unsuitable for drinking) and decreased within the range 200-300 in years 2015 and 2016 (Very poor water). The

The current study aimed to investigate the impact of toxoplasmosis, HSV-2 infections with abortion, and also, the identification of immunogenetics marker (interleukin-10) that may be associated with abortion. Anti-Toxoplasma IgG, IgM, Herpes simplex virus-2 IgM, human soluble leukocyte antigen class I–G and interleukin10 were estimated by ELISA technique, while the expression of IL-10 gene was investigated by using the real-time PCR. The results showed that among aborted women the rate of anti-Toxoplasma and HSV-2 IgM antibodies occurred within the age groups (21–30) years and (31–40) years 32(100.0%) a

Show MoreIn this work, an enhanced Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) based on Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) sensor using a sided polished structure for the detection of toxic ions Arsenic in water was designed and implemented. The SPR curve can be obtained by polishing the side of the PCF after coating the Au film on the side of the polished area, the SPR curve can be obtained. The proposed sensor has a clear SPR effect, according to the findings of the experiments. The estimated signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), sensitivity (S), resolution (R), and Figures of merit (FOM) are approaching; the SNR is 0.0125, S is 11.11 μm/RIU, the resolution is 1.8x〖10〗^(-4), and the FOM is 13.88 for Single-mode Fiber- Photonic Crystal Fiber- single mode Fiber (SMF-P

Cone-beam computed tomography systems (CBCT) allow surgeons to determine the quality and quantity before surgery, aiding in treatment planning. This study highlights the importance of such an assessment Materials and Methods A total of 40 patients were referred to CBCT scanning for pre-dental implant assessment in the Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology department at Al-Shaheed Gazi Al Hariri Hospital from 2021 to 2022. The patients were between 18 and 50 years old. All data were analyzed with on-demand 3D software (Kavo OP 3D: Cone Beam 3D imaging Germany).

Methods: Researchers collected 150 fecal samples from ostriches that dwelled in central and southern Iraq for microscopic examination of intestinal parasite occurrence. Results: The six parasite species included Entamoeba sp., which made up 26.66% of the population, and Cryptosporidium sp. at 11.33%, Ascaridia galli at 10%, Giardia sp. at 4.6%, Raillietina sp. at 2%, and Trichostrongyl.
