Intensifying the Charging Response of a Phase-Change Material with Twisted Fin Arrays in a Shell-And-Tube Storage System
A twisted-fin array as an innovative structure for intensifying the charging response of a phase-change material (PCM) within a shell-and-tube storage system is introduced in this work. A three-dimensional model describing the thermal management with charging phase change process in PCM was developed and numerically analyzed by the enthalpy-porosity method using commercial CFD software. Efficacy of the proposed structure of fins for performing better heat communication between the active heating surface and the adjacent layers of PCM was verified via comparing with conventional longitudinal fins within the same design limitations of fin material and volume usage. Optimization of the fin geometric parameters including the pitch, numb

1, 3, 4-oxadiazole-5-thion ring (2) successfully formed at position six of 2-methylphenol and five of their thioalkyl (3a-e). Furthermore 6-(5-(Aryl)-1, 3, 4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-2-methylphenol (5a-i) were formed at position six by two method. The first method was from cyclization their correspondinghydrazones (4a-e) of 2-hydroxy-3-methylbenzohydrazide (1) using bromine in glacial acetic acid. The second method was from cyclization the hydrazide with aryl carboxylic acid in the presence of phosphorusoxy chloride. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized from their IR, NMR and mass spectra. The antioxidant properties of these compounds were screened by 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazide (DPPH) and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) a

Resveratrol Attenuates Allergic Asthma and Associated Inflammation in the Lungs Through Regulation of miRNA-34a That Targets FoxP3 in Mice
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of airways mediated by T-helper 2 (Th2) cells involving complex signaling pathways. Although resveratrol has previously been shown to attenuate allergic asthma, the role of miRNA in this process has not been studied. We investigated the effect of resveratrol on ovalbumin-induced experimental allergic asthma in mice. To that end, BALB/c mice were immunized with ovalbumin (OVA) intraperitoneally followed by oral gavage of vehicle (OVA-veh) or resveratrol (100 mg/kg body) (OVA-res). On day 7, the experimental groups received intranasal challenge of OVA followed by 7 days of additional oral gavage of vehicle or resveratrol. At day 15, all mice were euthanized and bronchioalveolar fluid (BALF), se

Antibacterial and therapeutic effects of vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteriocin (VRSAcin) in the treatment of VRSA skin infection in mice
Vancomycin Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) is a strain of S. aureus that is considered the main cause of bacterial
skin and soft tissue infections. It has acquired resistance to vancomycin and represents a therapeutic challenge.
The current study aimed to compare the possible therapeutic effects of VRSA bacteriocin (VRSAcin) on the
treatment of skin infection in mice with those of an antibiotic (linezolid). The results showed that of the fifty
swabs obtained from human skin wounds. One isolate was selected for VRSAcin extraction depending on its
antibiotic resistance using an antibiotic susceptibility test.An agar well diffusion test was used to determine
bacteriocin’s antibacterial activity
as well as its a minimum inhibitory concentration
minimum bactericidal
concentration
and antibiofilm efficiency against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria that were resistant to
many medicines. The freshly developed antibacterial substance VRSAcin shows promise. Bacteriocin from VRSA
was extracted and studied the optimal conditions for the Production following Purification of bacteriocin by
ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by cation-exchange chromatography. The molecular weight of
bacteriocin about (29 kDa) were determined by Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
(SDS-PAGE). The typical conditions for the production of VRSAcin include a pH of 7 and a temperature of 37 ◦C
for 48 h. In mice
VRSA-contaminated wounds revealed severe tissue distraction and inflammation that extended
to the hypodermis
while VRSA-treated skin showed mild changes and localized lesions to the epidermis and
upper dermis. The skin of linezolid ointment-treated mice showed moderate to severe changes. In conclusion
VRSA strain infections in human burned skin were more common than expected. In vivo studies in mice indicated
that wounded skin infected with VRSA can be treated with VRSAcin as an antibacterial agent that promotes
healing processes with obvious superiority to linezolid ointment. As a result
the VRSA develops bacteriocins that
are appropriate for regulating AMR
Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria
and may be useful in wound
dressings.

EVALUATING THE QUALITY OF IMPORTED AND LOCAL FLOUR IN TERMS OF QUALITY WITH IRON AND FOLIC ACID AND ITS COMPLIANCE WITH IRAQI STANDARD: EVALUATING THE QUALITY OF IMPORTED AND LOCAL FLOUR IN TERMS OF QUALITY WITH IRON AND FOLIC ACID AND ITS COMPLIANCE WITH IRAQI STANDARD

Food fortification has an important and necessary role in compensating for the shortage of nutritional micronutrients, especially in developing and least developed countries. So, 12 samples of flour available in the local market, whether imported or locally produced flour, were obtained during 2019. The amount of base metal of the necessary iron element in the flour models studied which are available in local markets, measured by spot testing and was compared with the values that should be added according to the specification Iraqi standard. Results revealed the qualitative evaluation of iron in locally produced flour does not conform to the Iraqi standard and is almost free of any reinforcement. While the percentage of imp
